Getting Started
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 virtual environment and using a Solana wallet with only a minimal amount of SOL.
Hardware Requirements
To participate as a GPU Host, ensure your setup meets the following criteria:
RAM: 12GB+
Storage: 256GB+ 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.
