714M parameters, published in F16. View on Hugging Face
Set up ice-012-audioice-012-audio is published by darkps on Hugging Face, with 349 downloads and 62 likes to date. It's a iceAudioForCausalLM model built for text-to-speech, published natively in F16.
VRAM required & cheapest live GPU fit
Required VRAM = weight size at each precision, plus a fixed overhead for KV-cache, activations, and fragmentation. Full formula and assumptions: methodology.
A GPU is only matched to a row if its hardware supports that precision, and the primary recommendation is always a single-GPU fit when one exists.
INT4 requires a quantized checkpoint actually published for this model, check its Hugging Face page before relying on this row.
Cheapest way to run ice-012-audio at its published (F16) precision: 1× P4 on akash, at $0.032/hr per GPU ($0.032/hr total). Quantizing to FP8 or INT4 (rows above) can cost less, but requires a compatible quantized checkpoint to exist for this model.
