B300 FAQ
What is the largest model the B300 can run?
Beam 1.0 501B A23B (501.3B) is the largest at 4-bit or better: at Q4_K_S it uses 285.2 GB of 288 GB, and runs at about 185 tok/s.
Can the B300 run MiMo V2.6 Flash RL?
Yes. MiMo V2.6 Flash RL fits at Q4_K_M, using 186.5 GB of 288 GB, and it is the best model that runs well on this card.
How many tokens per second does the B300 give?
About 229 tok/s on MiMo V2.6 Flash RL at Q4_K_M, with the first token after 0.1 s on a 4K-token prompt.
What power supply does the B300 need?
Plan a 2800 W PSU (2× the 1400 W TDP).
Is 288 GB enough for coding and agents?
Yes for coding: MiMo V2.6 Flash RL, the best of the 25 coding models that fit, runs at about 229 tok/s.
