Can the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti run Qwen2-VL-2B?

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

Qwen2-VL-2B on the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 28k 111-132.2 t/s ~7.3-8.7 (slow)
Q8 yes 59k 221.9-264.5 t/s ~14.6-17.4 (slow)
Q4 yes 72k 396.3-472.3 t/s ~26.1-31.1 (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 Qwen2-VL-2B?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~396.3-472.3 tok/s and fits up to 72k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) 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 system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
