Frequently Asked Questions
- How much VRAM does Qwen3 Nemotron 235B A22B GenRM 2603 need?
Qwen3 Nemotron 235B A22B GenRM 2603 requires 470.7 GB of VRAM at BF16. Full 262K context adds up to 25.0 GB (495.7 GB total).
VRAM = Weights + KV Cache + Overhead
Weights = 235.1B × 16 bits ÷ 8 = 470.2 GB
KV Cache + Overhead ≈ 0.5 GB (at 2K context + ~0.3 GB framework)
KV Cache + Overhead ≈ 25.5 GB (at full 262K context)
