Can the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 run SciBERT?

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

SciBERT on the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 142k 2229.8-2657.5 t/s ~132.7-158.2 (slow)
Q8 yes 144k 4459.6-5314.9 t/s ~265.5-316.4 (slow)
Q4 yes 145k 7963.6-9490.9 t/s ~474-564.9 (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 5070 run SciBERT?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~7963.6-9490.9 tok/s and fits up to 145k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~474-564.9 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 145k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
