Can the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2050 run gte-modernbert?
Yes โ here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.
gte-modernbert on the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2050
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | yes | 72k | 274.4-327 t/s | ~24.5-29.2 (slow) |
| Q8 | yes | 74k | 548.7-654 t/s | ~49-58.4 (slow) |
| Q4 | yes | 75k | 979.9-1167.8 t/s | ~87.5-104.3 (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 gte-modernbert?โถ
Yes. At Q4 it generates ~979.9-1167.8 tok/s and fits up to 75k context; beyond that it spills to SSD swap and slows to ~87.5-104.3 tok/s.
How much context fits?โถ
At Q4, up to about 75k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to SSD swap and throughput collapses.
