Decides which models fit at all.

Memory bandwidth

936 GB/s

How fast it can read the model. Sets the speed of the reply.

Compute

35.6 TFLOPS

Trillions of half-precision sums a second. Sets how fast it reads a long prompt, not how fast it replies.

Power draw

350 W

At full load, for sizing a power supply.
