Getting Started ​

Welcome to the Nosana GPU Marketplace ​

The Nosana Network connects GPU Hosts with Clients who need scalable, cost-effective GPU compute. As a GPU Host, you’ll contribute to a decentralized ecosystem by listing your NVIDIA GPUs on the Nosana Marketplace for AI inference and other compute workloads.

GPU Hosts ​

GPU Hosts run the Nosana Node software, which connects your hardware to the marketplace. To register your device, it must include a compatible NVIDIA GPU.

WARNING

We recommend running the Nosana Node software in a sandboxed environment and using a Solana wallet with only a minimal amount of SOL.

INFO

For clarity we would also like to inform you that Nosana supports 1 private key per GPU, 1 GPU per PC

Hardware Requirements ​

Platform Support

As of this release, Windows (including WSL2) is being deprecated as a supported platform for Nosana GPU Hosts. Going forward, only native Linux installations are officially supported. We recommend using Ubuntu 20.04 or newer for the best experience and compatibility with the Nosana Node software.

To participate as a GPU Host, ensure your setup meets the following criteria:

  • RAM: 12GB+

  • Storage: 256GB+ NVMe (SSD)

    Large language models storage requirements can be high, especially models geared towards higher end GPU’s. It is recommended that ancillary storage up to 1TB be provided for your host to handle client model requirements.

  • Bandwidth: Minimum 100 Mb/s download, 50 Mb/s upload.

    High speed internet speed is required. To increase your chances of your host being hired by a client, we recommend 500 Mb/s download, 250 Mb/s upload, with ping below 100ms.
