QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 171k 350.4-417.6 t/s ~14.6-17.4 (slow)
Q8 yes 186k 700.8-835.2 t/s ~29.2-34.8 (slow)
Q4 yes 193k 1251.4-1491.4 t/s ~52.1-62.1 (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 5080 run Minerva 1B?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~1251.4-1491.4 tok/s and fits up to 193k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~52.1-62.1 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 193k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
