Can the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti run TinyLlama-1.1B (3T token checkpoint)?

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

TinyLlama-1.1B (3T token checkpoint) on the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 112k 302.6-360.7 t/s ~13.3-15.8 (slow)
Q8 yes 129k 605.2-721.3 t/s ~26.5-31.6 (slow)
Q4 yes 136k 1080.8-1288.1 t/s ~47.4-56.5 (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 3080 Ti run TinyLlama-1.1B (3T token checkpoint)?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~1080.8-1288.1 tok/s and fits up to 136k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~47.4-56.5 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 136k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
