Can the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2050 run RWKV-6 (Finch) 3B?
Yes — here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.
RWKV-6 (Finch) 3B on the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2050
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | no | — | — | — |
| Q8 | yes | 29k | 26.4-31.4 t/s | ~2.4-2.8 (slow) |
| Q4 | yes | 50k | 47.1-56.1 t/s | ~4.2-5 (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 RWKV-6 (Finch) 3B?▶
Yes. At Q4 it generates ~47.1-56.1 tok/s and fits up to 50k context; beyond that it spills to SSD swap and slows to ~4.2-5 tok/s.
How much context fits?▶
At Q4, up to about 50k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to SSD swap and throughput collapses.
