●From the file◐Predictedwhat these mean

Speed is modeled, not measured: decode is memory-bandwidth bound, so tokens per second is bytes read per token against achievable bandwidth. Mixture-of-experts models carry a wider band because only the routed experts are read each step, and few have been measured publicly.

Questions people ask

What AI models can a RTX 4000 Ada Generation run?
1878 of 2118 indexed open-weight models fit a RTX 4000 Ada Generation at 16,384 context with f16 KV cache, the largest being IQuest-Coder-V1-40B-Instruct at I1-IQ2_M. That covers text, vision-language, image, video and speech models.
How much usable memory does a RTX 4000 Ada Generation actually have?
Its nameplate is 20 GB, but about 18.60 GiB is available to a model once driver and compositor overhead is accounted for.
Is a RTX 4000 Ada Generation fast for local AI?
Its memory bandwidth is 360 GB/s, and that figure — not teraflops — is what governs token generation speed. Capacity decides what you can run; bandwidth decides how fast it runs.
