Coming soon: NVIDIA Tesla P40, 24 GB VRAM

Run LLaMA on a GPU VPS

Self-host Meta's Llama models on an NVIDIA Tesla P40 (24 GB VRAM, Pascal architecture). Suited to 8B models at full precision and larger models when quantized. GPU servers are not orderable yet; contact us to be notified when they are.

$ curl -fsSL https://ollama.com/install.sh | sh && ollama run llama3
# Example install command

What is LLaMA on a GPU VPS?

Llama is Meta's family of openly available large language models. Running Llama on your own GPU server keeps prompts and data private.

LLaMA on a VPS.org GPU server

Llama 3 8B

Runs 8B models on 24 GB of VRAM. 70B models do not fit on a single 24 GB card at common quantization levels.

Private Deployment

Your prompts and data stay on your server, with no third-party API calls.

Model Formats

Use GGUF with llama.cpp or Ollama, or native PyTorch weights.

OpenAI-Compatible API

Serve models with Ollama or the llama.cpp server for an OpenAI-compatible endpoint.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is LLaMA on a GPU VPS?

+

LLaMA can use an NVIDIA GPU to speed up its work. VPS.org GPU servers are not available to order yet; contact us to hear when they are. LLaMA is a general GPU-accelerated workload. Make sure your software has CUDA support and that your driver / runtime versions match the workload requirements for LLaMA.

How do I set up LLaMA on a GPU VPS?

+

GPU servers are not available to order yet. Today you can run LLaMA on a regular CPU plan, where it works far more slowly than on a GPU: SSH in and run curl -fsSL https://ollama.com/install.sh | sh && ollama run llama3.

How much VRAM do I need for LLaMA?

+

VRAM needs for LLaMA depend on the model and batch size; check the project documentation for current figures.

How much would a GPU server for LLaMA cost?

+

GPU pricing will be published when GPU servers can be ordered. Contact us if you want to hear when that happens.

Can I run other tools alongside LLaMA?

+

Yes. Every VPS.org server comes with full root access, so you can run other tools alongside LLaMA within the server's RAM and storage.

Do I get full root on the LLaMA GPU VPS?

+

Every VPS.org server comes with full root SSH access, so you can install drivers, libraries and LLaMA however you need.

Does VPS.org preinstall CUDA for LLaMA?

+

No. No server comes with a CUDA runtime or NVIDIA driver preinstalled, and GPU servers are not available to order yet. You install the versions LLaMA needs yourself.

Does my LLaMA GPU VPS persist between sessions?

+

Yes. VPS.org servers are persistent virtual machines, not ephemeral instances: LLaMA models, configs and data stay on the server's SSD storage until you delete them.

Where should I store data for my LLaMA workload?

+

Keep working data on the server's SSD for fast access during LLaMA runs, and copy finished artifacts (weights, generations, embeddings) to storage outside VPS.org; snapshots and backups stay on the same storage cluster.

Can I scale my LLaMA GPU VPS later?

+

You can upgrade any VPS.org server to a larger plan from the control panel; the resize restarts it and your LLaMA install carries over. GPU servers are not available yet.

Are backups available for my GPU VPS?

+

Yes. Backups are a paid add-on (daily +30% of the plan price, kept 7 days; weekly +20%, kept 28 days) and snapshots are free, which is useful before long LLaMA runs. Both stay on the same storage cluster as the server.

Can I get a refund?

+

Contact support within 30 days of your first purchase to request a refund. GPU servers are not sold yet, so no GPU order is involved.
