NVIDIA RTX 5070 Ti vs NVIDIA RTX 5090 Laptop 24GB for local LLMs
30 reports on the NVIDIA RTX 5070 Ti and 4 on the NVIDIA RTX 5090 Laptop 24GB
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 about the same on both (896 GB/s on the NVIDIA RTX 5070 Ti, 896 on the NVIDIA RTX 5090 Laptop 24GB).
