AMD Instinct MI210 does not meet the minimum VRAM requirement for Q4 inference of MiniMaxAI/MiniMax-M2.1. Review the quantization breakdown below to see how higher precision settings impact VRAM and throughput.
AMD Instinct MI210 lacks sufficient VRAM for comfortable MiniMaxAI/MiniMax-M2.1 operation with Q4 quantization.
Your 64GB GPU is 64GB short of the 128GB minimum.
Options: (1) Try Q2 or Q3 quantization for lower VRAM requirements, (2) Consider cloud GPU rental, (3) Upgrade to a GPU with at least 16GB VRAM.
| Quantization | VRAM needed | VRAM available | Estimated speed | Verdict |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Q4 | 128GB | 64GB | 27.55 tok/s | ❌ Not recommended |
| Q8 | 256GB | 64GB | 21.22 tok/s | ❌ Not recommended |
| FP16 | 512GB | 64GB | 10.73 tok/s | ❌ Not recommended |
