QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 13k 88.8-105.8 t/s ~5.8-7 (slow)
Q8 yes 51k 177.5-211.6 t/s ~11.7-13.9 (slow)
Q4 yes 68k 317-377.8 t/s ~20.9-24.9 (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 Granite 3.0 2B?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~317-377.8 tok/s and fits up to 68k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~20.9-24.9 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 68k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
