Use-case guide · Summarisation

Should you pick RTX 3070 for summarisation?

RTX 3070 has 8 GB VRAM. Whether it's the right fit for summarisation depends on your model size, expected QPS, and budget. Below is what we're seeing in production.

VRAM + model fit

RTX 3070 fits models up to ~6B parameters in BF16 comfortably with room for KV-cache. For summarisation specifically, you'll want to leave headroom for context length growth.
