Workload Recommendations
Guidance for optimal precision and operational ceilings on NVIDIA RTX 5090 (32GB).
Inference Sweet Spot
Optimized for 14B models at uncompressed or Q8 precision, and 32B models at Q4 with up to 32k context.
Bandwidth & Speed Profile
With 1792 GB/s aggregate bandwidth, batch size 1 inference operates in a memory-bandwidth bound regime. Generates approximately 398 tok/s on an 8B Q4 model and 47 tok/s on a 70B Q4 model.
