Can a Tesla V100 Run MiniMax H3? A 5-Second Clip Took 20 Minutes
A 5-second 864×480 MiniMax H3 clip took 19 min 29 s on a Tesla V100-SXM2-32GB. A 16GB V100 finished in 20 min 15 s. An RTX 5060 Ti 16GB did the same size in about 294 s.

MiniMax H3's ComfyUI model files total 39.55 GB. On a modified 32GB RTX 4080 SUPER, 864×480 clips took about 148 s and a 1920×1088 clip took 53 minutes without running out of memory.
MiniMax H3's model files total 39.55 GB. On an RTX 5060 Ti 16GB with 32 GB of RAM, 864×480 clips took about 294 s, and a 5-second 1920×1088 clip finished in about 72 minutes.
We moved an RTX 5060 Ti 16GB from an old X99 workstation to a Z790 DDR5 PC. A 27B model that spills out of VRAM sped up 164%; a 12B model that fits gained 18%.
AI moves fast. Good decisions still come from understanding the task, testing the tools, and knowing the trade-offs.
