Can the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2050 run Spec-Drafter?

Yes โ€” here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.

Spec-Drafter on the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2050

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 61k 81.8-97.4 t/s ~7.3-8.7 (slow)
Q8 yes 69k 163.5-194.9 t/s ~14.6-17.4 (slow)
Q4 yes 72k 292-348 t/s ~26.1-31.1 (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 Spec-Drafter?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~292-348 tok/s and fits up to 72k context; beyond that it spills to SSD swap and slows to ~26.1-31.1 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 72k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to SSD swap and throughput collapses.
