Cheapest hardware per quantisation.

Each row is one quantisation tier (the same weights compressed differently). Lower precision → lower VRAM → cheaper hardware, at the cost of small accuracy loss. $/hr refreshed hourly from each provider's API.

Quantisation	Cheapest GPU config	Total VRAM	Live $/hr	tokens/sec
FP16 FP16 — half precision (default)	1× Nvidia RTX 3080	10 GB	—	—	Compare →
FP8 FP8 — 8-bit float (Hopper / Blackwell)	1× Nvidia Nvidia P102-100	5 GB	—	—	Compare →
INT4 INT4 — 4-bit integer (~4× VRAM saving)	1× Nvidia Nvidia Titan V	3 GB	—	—	Compare →
