QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 128k 438-522 t/s ~26.1-31.1 (slow)
Q8 yes 137k 876-1044 t/s ~52.1-62.1 (slow)
Q4 yes 141k 1564.3-1864.3 t/s ~93.1-111 (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 run bge-reranker-large?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~1564.3-1864.3 tok/s and fits up to 141k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~93.1-111 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 141k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
