Can the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 run FRED-T5-XL?

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

FRED-T5-XL on the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 261k 211.4-252 t/s ~8.4-10 (slow)
Q8 yes 287k 422.9-504 t/s ~16.8-20 (slow)
Q4 yes 299k 755.2-900 t/s ~30-35.7 (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 4090 run FRED-T5-XL?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~755.2-900 tok/s and fits up to 299k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~30-35.7 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 299k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
