Can the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti run Pythia-410m?

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

Pythia-410m on the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 189k 797.7-950.6 t/s ~35.6-42.4 (slow)
Q8 yes 195k 1595.3-1901.3 t/s ~71.2-84.9 (slow)
Q4 yes 198k 2848.8-3395.1 t/s ~127.2-151.6 (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 Pythia-410m?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~2848.8-3395.1 tok/s and fits up to 198k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~127.2-151.6 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 198k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
