NVIDIA A2 vs NVIDIA RTX 5060 Ti 16GB for local LLMs
0 reports on the NVIDIA A2 and 72 on the NVIDIA RTX 5060 Ti 16GB
Which is faster for local LLMs?
Nobody has reported the same model at the same quant on both cards yet, so there's no measured head-to-head. Memory bandwidth, which caps how fast a card can write, is 2.2x higher on the NVIDIA RTX 5060 Ti 16GB (200 GB/s on the NVIDIA A2, 448 on the NVIDIA RTX 5060 Ti 16GB). The estimates below compare them on the models people run most.
