Can the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2050 run CogView?
Yes — here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.
CogView on the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2050
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | no | — | — | — |
| Q8 | yes | 15k | 20.4-24.4 t/s | ~1.8-2.2 (slow) |
| Q4 | yes | 42k | 36.5-43.5 t/s | ~3.3-3.9 (slow) |
Estimate (memory-bound). Beyond "max context" the KV cache spills to SSD swap and speed drops to the "beyond" figure.
FAQ
Can the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2050 run CogView?▶
Yes. At Q4 it generates ~36.5-43.5 tok/s and fits up to 42k context; beyond that it spills to SSD swap and slows to ~3.3-3.9 tok/s.
How much context fits?▶
At Q4, up to about 42k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to SSD swap and throughput collapses.
