Solar Open 2 250B on NVIDIA GB10 (128 GB)

Can the NVIDIA GB10 (128 GB) run Solar Open 2 250B?

Yes, it runs well (tight fit)

Runs well (tight fit). At Q2_K it needs about 112 GB of 115 GB usable, with an estimated speed of 32.9 tok/s.

Best quant: Q2_K
Generation speed: 32.9 tok/s
Prompt processing: 1,488 tok/s
First token (1K prompt): 0.7 s
Largest safe context: 26K

Best app to run it on the NVIDIA GB10 (128 GB)

On Linux

Docker Model Runner

Command line + local API · runs on llama.cpp, vLLM

Handy if you already work in Docker.

How it’s rated

Quality 63Good quality (B) · 63 of 100: how capable the model is at Q2_K, whatever it runs on. Match score 80/100 (quality, fit, speed and memory use) sets the ranking.: How capable the model itself is at Q2_K, from its editorial quality tier scaled by the quantization or precision. It’s the same on any hardware that runs this variant. Scale: A+ 85+ · A 70+ · B 55+ · C 40+ · D under 40.
Runs Runs welltight fit: How well it runs on the NVIDIA GB10 (128 GB): speed, capped by how well it fits in memory. Runs great: 30+ tokens/s (or near the image, video or decision speed target) · Runs well: 10+ tokens/s · Slow: 3+ tokens/s · Very slow: under 3 · Won’t run: doesn’t fit even with offload. A tight fit or RAM offload caps it at Runs well; heavy offload caps it at Slow.

Match score

To order lists, each result also gets a match score out of 100 from four parts. It favors the most capable model that still runs well.

Model qualityEditorial quality tier of the model, scaled by the quantization or precision used.	28.4 / 45
Memory fitFull marks when the model fits in the share of unified memory the GPU can use; fewer when it goes past that limit.	24.0 / 25
SpeedGeneration speed against a 40 tokens/s target for LLMs, or render time against a target for image and video.	13.6 / 15
Memory useRewards using the memory you have, so a bigger, better variant beats a tiny one that leaves most memory idle.	15.0 / 15
Match score	81.0 / 100

The match score orders results; it is not shown as a grade. Quality and Runs are the two ratings in the tables.

Estimates come from published hardware specs and our open formulas, not from running the model on your machine. Real speed varies with runtime, drivers and settings. Numbers marked “Measured” come from a linked benchmark.
