Can the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 run ProteinBERT?

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

ProteinBERT on the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 314k 22995-27405 t/s ~912.5-1087.5 (slow)
Q8 yes 314k 45990-54810 t/s ~1825-2175 (slow)
Q4 yes 314k 82125-97875 t/s ~3258.9-3883.9 (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 4090 run ProteinBERT?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~82125-97875 tok/s and fits up to 314k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~3258.9-3883.9 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 314k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
