Can the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8GB run DARTS (second order) (PTB)?
Yes — here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.
DARTS (second order) (PTB) on the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8GB
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | yes | 89k | 7109.6-8473 t/s | ~634.8-756.5 (slow) |
| Q8 | yes | 89k | 14219.1-16946.1 t/s | ~1269.6-1513 (slow) |
| Q4 | yes | 89k | 25391.3-30260.9 t/s | ~2267.1-2701.9 (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 5060 Ti 8GB run DARTS (second order) (PTB)?▶
Yes. At Q4 it generates ~25391.3-30260.9 tok/s and fits up to 89k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~2267.1-2701.9 tok/s.
How much context fits?▶
At Q4, up to about 89k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
