[Project] LLM inference with vLLM and AMD: Achieving LLM inference parity with Nvidia (alien.top)

I wanted to share some exciting news from the GPU world that could potentially change the game for LLM inference. AMD has been making significant strides in LLM inference, thanks to the porting of vLLM to ROCm 5.6. You can find the code implementation on GitHub.

The result? AMD's MI210 now almost matches Nvidia's A100 in LLM inference performance. This is a significant development, as it could make AMD a more viable option for LLM inference tasks, which traditionally have been dominated by Nvidia.

For those interested in the technical details, I recommend checking out this EmbeddedLLM Blog Post.

I'm curious to hear your thoughts on this. Anyone manage to run it on RX 7900 XTX?

Is there some good cloud host for getting AMD GPUs?

Well now I know what I’m doing with my weekend. Thanks for sharing! Hopefully I can report back some xtx performance numbers.

I tried on this config - Ryzen 9 7950x MI210. I got this result Throughput: 129 requests/min, 1028.89 tokens/s on llama2-7b. Which is even better than the performance they cite on the post

[–] diamond_jackie07@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Will report back on 13b performance ASAP

Will this run on a ryzen with Radeon built in?

If so, can’t you build a ryzen machine with like 128gb of ram and dedicate nearly all of it to video?

There are limits, some motherboards have higher limits https://www.tomshardware.com/news/dollar95-amd-cpu-becomes-16gb-gpu-to-run-ai-software
