Which Hardware Can Run Hydrogen 1.0 MXFP4?

BF16 · 772.9 GB

Hydrogen 1.0 MXFP4 (BF16) requires 772.9 GB of VRAM to load the model weights. For comfortable inference with headroom for KV cache and system overhead, 1005+ GB is recommended. Using the full 1049K context window can add up to 90.3 GB, bringing total usage to 863.2 GB. No consumer GPU has enough memory.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much VRAM does Hydrogen 1.0 MXFP4 need?

Hydrogen 1.0 MXFP4 requires 772.9 GB of VRAM at BF16. Full 1049K context adds up to 90.3 GB (863.2 GB total).

VRAM = Weights + KV Cache + Overhead

Weights = 384.3B × 16 bits ÷ 8 = 768.7 GB

KV Cache + Overhead ≈ 4.2 GB (at 2K context + ~0.3 GB framework)

Fit ratings and hardware model lists check this model with room for a 16K-token context, which needs a little more memory.

KV Cache + Overhead ≈ 94.5 GB (at full 1049K context)
