Llama 3.1 8B
llmactiveLlama 3.1 Community License
8B instruction-tuned LLM by Meta (Llama 3.1) with 128K context — the workhorse small Llama, under the Llama 3.1 Community License. Twenty-three cards here have a recipe, and the floor is 8 GB, which is what keeps it relevant next to newer 8B models: measured 57.3 tok/s on an 8 GB RTX 3060 Ti and 60.0 tok/s on a 12 GB RTX 4070 Ti. Note the licence is Meta's own, not Apache — it carries conditions that Apache-2.0 models in this catalogue do not.
