NVIDIA: Llama 3.1 Nemotron 70B Instruct

Llama 3.1 Nemotron 70B Instruct is a previous NVIDIA Llama 3.1-era snapshot, not a 2026 Nemotron default. The leftover NVIDIA card on the public page is still build.nvidia.com/nvidia/llama-3_1-nemotron-70b-instruct. Live open Nemotron on this site is Nemotron 3.5 Lightning 30B A3B.

Compare leftover Llama 3.1 70B Instruct if you wanted the leftover Meta 70B twin already rewritten, leftover Llama 3.1 8B Instruct if you wanted the leftover smaller twin, and Nemotron 3.5 Lightning 30B A3B if you wanted the live NVIDIA open path.
