Can the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 run Magistral Small 1.1?
Yes — here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.
Magistral Small 1.1 on the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | no | — | — | — |
| Q8 | no | — | — | — |
| Q4 | yes | 27k | 54.8-65.3 t/s | ~2.2-2.6 (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 Magistral Small 1.1?▶
Yes. At Q4 it generates ~54.8-65.3 tok/s and fits up to 27k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~2.2-2.6 tok/s.
How much context fits?▶
At Q4, up to about 27k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
