Can the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti run BART-IT?

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

BART-IT on the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 85k 1585.1-1889.1 t/s ~104.3-124.3 (slow)
Q8 yes 87k 3170.3-3778.3 t/s ~208.6-248.6 (slow)
Q4 yes 88k 5661.2-6746.9 t/s ~372.4-443.9 (slow)

Estimate (memory-bound). Beyond "max context" the KV cache spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and speed drops to the "beyond" figure.

FAQ

Can the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti run BART-IT?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~5661.2-6746.9 tok/s and fits up to 88k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~372.4-443.9 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 88k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
