Can the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 run Stable Diffusion (LDM-KL-8-G)?

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

Stable Diffusion (LDM-KL-8-G) on the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 157k 185.3-220.8 t/s ~10.1-12 (slow)
Q8 yes 180k 370.5-441.6 t/s ~20.1-24 (slow)
Q4 yes 189k 661.7-788.6 t/s ~36-42.9 (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 4080 run Stable Diffusion (LDM-KL-8-G)?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~661.7-788.6 tok/s and fits up to 189k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~36-42.9 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 189k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
