## Every Accelerator, Every Precision

How many cards of each accelerator the SAVRN Index prices it takes to hold Qwen3-30B-A3B-Instruct-2507, and what that many cards cost an hour at the lowest listed on-demand price. Memory needed: 73.3 GB at 16-bit, 36.6 GB at 8-bit, 18.3 GB at 4-bit.

| Accelerator | Memory per card | Lowest price per card | 16-bit | 8-bit | 4-bit |

## Running It Around the Clock

| Precision | Cheapest setup | Per hour | Per month (730 hours) |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 16-bit | 1x [MI300X](https://savrn.com/ai-index/pricing/gpus/mi300x) (Vultr) | $1.85 | $1,350 |
| 8-bit | 1x [MI300X](https://savrn.com/ai-index/pricing/gpus/mi300x) (Vultr) | $1.85 | $1,350 |
| 4-bit | 1x [MI300X](https://savrn.com/ai-index/pricing/gpus/mi300x) (Vultr) | $1.85 | $1,350 |

One copy of the model on rented cards, busy or idle. Serving more users at once takes more copies or more memory for their contexts.

## Memory at Longer Context

Every token in a sequence keeps a key and a value in every layer. From Qwen3-30B-A3B-Instruct-2507's published configuration, that cache adds this much at 16-bit for one sequence:

| Context | Key/value cache | Total with weights | Cheapest setup |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 4,096 tokens | 0.4 GB | 73.7 GB | 1x [MI300X](https://savrn.com/ai-index/pricing/gpus/mi300x) $1.85/hr |
| 32,768 tokens | 3.2 GB | 76.5 GB | 1x [MI300X](https://savrn.com/ai-index/pricing/gpus/mi300x) $1.85/hr |
| 131,072 tokens | 12.9 GB | 86.2 GB | 1x [MI300X](https://savrn.com/ai-index/pricing/gpus/mi300x) $1.85/hr |
| 262,144 tokens (full) | 25.8 GB | 99.1 GB | 1x [MI300X](https://savrn.com/ai-index/pricing/gpus/mi300x) $1.85/hr |

An estimate from layers, key/value heads and head size, assuming full attention in every layer. Runtimes that quantize or page the cache use less.

## Questions

### How much VRAM does Qwen3-30B-A3B-Instruct-2507 need?

About 73.3 GB at 16-bit; about 36.6 GB at 8-bit; about 18.3 GB at 4-bit: the weights plus 20% for the runtime and a short context. A long context needs more.

### What is the cheapest GPU setup to run Qwen3-30B-A3B-Instruct-2507?

At 16-bit, 1x MI300X from $1.85 an hour, at the lowest on-demand price the SAVRN Index lists.

### Can Qwen3-30B-A3B-Instruct-2507 run on a single H100?

Yes at 16-bit, 8-bit, 4-bit: an H100 has 80 GB and Qwen3-30B-A3B-Instruct-2507 needs 73.3 GB at 16-bit.

### How much memory does Qwen3-30B-A3B-Instruct-2507 need at its full context length?

About 99.1 GB at 16-bit for one 262,144-token sequence: 73.3 GB for the weights and margin plus 25.8 GB of key/value cache, estimated from its published configuration.

Memory is the weights at that precision plus 20% for the runtime and a short context. Prices are the lowest on-demand hourly rates in the [SAVRN Index](https://savrn.com/ai-index/pricing/gpus), read Oct 12, 2026. Setups beyond eight cards, one server, are not listed.
