Can the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8GB run OPT-1.3B?

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

OPT-1.3B on the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8GB

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 50k 125.8-149.9 t/s ~11.2-13.4 (slow)
Q8 yes 70k 251.6-299.8 t/s ~22.5-26.8 (slow)
Q4 yes 78k 449.2-535.4 t/s ~40.1-47.8 (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 OPT-1.3B?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~449.2-535.4 tok/s and fits up to 78k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~40.1-47.8 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 78k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
