Tongyi-MAI models
2 Tongyi-MAI models on Hugging Face, from 6.2B to 6.2B parameters. At the precision each one is published in, the smallest needs about 13.8 GB of VRAM (Z-Image, cheapest live fit: RTX A5000) and the largest about 27.5 GB (Z-Image-Turbo, cheapest live fit: V100). The cheapest way to run Z-Image is $0.176/hr.
Tongyi-MAI models
| Model | Parameters | Published as | VRAM needed | Live GPU fit | Est. $/hr |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Z-Image | 6.2B | BF16 | 13.8 GB | RTX A5000 | $0.176/hr |
| Z-Image-Turbo | 6.2B | F32 | 27.5 GB | V100 | $0.187/hr |
VRAM is for the precision the model is published in, with the same overhead and an 8,192-token context assumed on every page; see the methodology. The fit shown is the lowest-priced single GPU type that holds the model at that precision, or the lowest-priced multi-GPU set (up to 8) when none does.
