Models that fit Frontier Native 2.3TB's GPU memory
288GB is available per GPU, with 2304GB physically installed across 8 GPUs.
The results below compare that hardware with each model's GPU-memory requirement. They do not predict speed, maximum context, image size or concurrent users.
All 33 models in our current model guide are included below. Another version needs its own exact checkpoint, licence, runtime and memory requirement before it can be matched to hardware.
30 models fit without splitting the model across GPUs
3 models may fit when supported software divides the model across GPUs

Explore Frontier Native 2.3TB hardware and system design.
The system view shows the hardware platform, while the technical diagrams explain memory, data boundaries, queues, power and handover.
Software and security
The usable product is more than the chassis.
The software stack stays deliberately small. The handover identifies versions, licences, access controls and ongoing responsibilities.
Software baseline
- Ubuntu LTS with the installed version stated in the handover
- NVIDIA driver, CUDA components and container support matched to the supplied hardware
- Docker Engine and NVIDIA Container Toolkit
- One primary model server selected from Ollama, vLLM, SGLang, TensorRT-LLM or llama.cpp for the accepted workload
- Open WebUI or another agreed browser interface
- Named authentication, TLS and reverse-proxy approach
- GPU, node and service monitoring with an agreed log-retention period
- Documented software versions, model sources and licence information
Security ownership
- GPU RIGS baseline
- Initial operating-system state, named administrator handover, host firewall baseline, agreed access route, secrets transfer and documented update state.
- Customer or contracted operator
- User lifecycle, network and VPN policy, backups, monitoring review, patch approval, incident response, data governance and lawful use.
- Agreed responsibilities
- Model and software licence checks, retention and logging choices, recovery test, service targets and a named owner for every recurring task.
Local infrastructure can reduce disclosure to external AI APIs. It does not automatically make the service secure, accurate, confidential or UK GDPR compliant.
Testing before handover
The system is tested as a complete machine.
Burn-in covers the complete build. Agreed workload checks use representative inputs and stated conditions.
- 01
Record the itemised hardware specification, serial numbers and firmware versions.
- 02
Run at least 24 hours of GPU, CPU, memory and storage stress testing.
- 03
Capture temperature, fan, error, health and wall-power evidence under the agreed load.
- 04
Test cold boot, restart and the available remote-management route.
- 05
Check drive health, network throughput and the container and GPU runtime.
- 06
Run model and workload smoke tests using the agreed representative inputs.
- 07
Record any measured speed only with the model, quantisation, context, concurrency and runtime disclosed.
- 08
Test an agreed fault or recovery route and include the result in the handover.
How performance figures are presented
Any stated speed, latency, quality, power or capacity result identifies the system, model, workload and test conditions used.
See how systems are testedCommercial reality
Tax and spare capacity are supporting questions.
Neither belongs in a guaranteed saving or payback claim. The purchase must stand on the accepted workload, control case and operating plan.
Finance and capital allowances
- The displayed figure covers the complete GPU Servers private AI deployment described on this page, not unconfigured hardware.
- Displayed figures are guide prices. The final total is confirmed before purchase.
- Qualifying equipment may be plant and machinery for capital-allowance purposes. The buyer's accountant decides eligibility and timing.
- A third-party lease or hire-purchase route may be explored after partner validation and credit approval. GPU RIGS is not presented as a lender.
- There is no generic capital-gains advantage and no automatic research and development relief because the equipment supports AI.
Optional idle capacity
- Marketplace mode is off by default and is excluded from the purchase case.
- A separate environment, no customer data mounts, network controls and a local kill switch would be required.
- The customer, insurer, supplier warranty and marketplace terms must permit the intended use.
- Vast.ai, Render, Golem and direct batch work do not guarantee acceptance, demand, rate or income.
- Any dated estimate must identify its source date; a pilot must report achieved utilisation, fees, electricity, cooling, faults and operator time.
Limits and alternatives
A good specification leaves room for “no”.
The fit check can recommend a smaller system, hosted service, hybrid route, custom build or no purchase. That is preferable to choosing hardware that does not suit the work.
Package boundaries
- Aggregate GPU memory is not one universal memory pool.
- Confirm model speed, usable context, concurrency and multi-GPU efficiency with the exact software and workload.
- Rack, electrical work, UPS, cooling, cabling, colocation and on-site installation require a separate scope.
- 2.304TB HBM is a calculated capacity envelope, not proof that the official Kimi K3 checkpoint loads or serves one-million-token context.
- No Kimi K3 throughput, TTFT, concurrency, wall power or quality result has been measured.
- Pricing is quote-only.
- Model-fit entries remain candidates until reproducible tests exist.
- Aggregate GPU memory is not one universal memory pool.
- Confirm model speed, usable context, concurrency and multi-GPU efficiency with the exact software and workload.
- Rack, electrical work, UPS, cooling, cabling, colocation and on-site installation require a separate scope.

Consider this routeQuestions answered
Frontier Native 2.3TB questions that affect the order
Answers cover pricing, specifications, warranty, workload fit and the service supplied.
Does Frontier Native 2.3TB provide 2304GB as one memory pool?
Only a single-GPU system provides its stated GPU memory on one card. Multi-GPU totals are aggregate physical capacity; usable sharding depends on the exact model, runtime and topology.
Which models are supported?
The compatibility section lists models whose published, calculated or estimated minimum memory fits the hardware. Confirm speed, usable context and concurrency with the exact model version and serving software.
What does the displayed price include?
The displayed price covers the complete configured GPU Servers deployment described on the page. Systems marked pricing on request are configured around the selected workload, facility and service needs.
Can spare capacity earn income?
It may be evaluated as an optional isolated secondary use. Marketplace acceptance, utilisation, rates, fees, energy and income can change and are never guaranteed or included in the purchase case.
Prepare the next decision
Specify the work before the parts.
Tell us about the workload, data boundary, users, site and success criteria. No confidential documents or credentials are needed.
