Llama 3.2 1B on the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 164k 265.9-316.9 t/s ~11.9-14.1 (slow)
Q8 yes 183k 531.8-633.8 t/s ~23.7-28.3 (slow)
Q4 yes 191k 949.6-1131.7 t/s ~42.4-50.5 (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 5070 Ti run Llama 3.2 1B?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~949.6-1131.7 tok/s and fits up to 191k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~42.4-50.5 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 191k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
