Can the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16GB run LLama 3.2 Typhoon 2 3B?

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

LLama 3.2 Typhoon 2 3B on the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16GB

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 110k 54.5-65 t/s ~4.9-5.8 (slow)
Q8 yes 156k 109-129.9 t/s ~9.7-11.6 (slow)
Q4 yes 176k 194.7-232 t/s ~17.4-20.7 (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.
