Manufacturer description

The Gigabyte GeForce RTX 4070 WINDFORCE OC 12GB (GV-N4070WF3OC-12GD) is built for high-refresh 1440p gaming and NVIDIA Studio creative work. It uses NVIDIA's Ada Lovelace architecture with a 2490 MHz boost clock and 12GB of GDDR6X memory at 21Gbps on a 192-bit bus. That gives you enough headroom for modern texture packs and ray-traced lighting. DLSS 3 lets you turn on Frame Generation in supported games, while DLSS 2 upscaling and NVIDIA Reflex help keep frame rates high and input latency low. DirectX 12 Ultimate and full ray tracing support cover the current feature set of AAA games. The…

Which local LLMs fit in 12 GB?

12 GB holds models up to about 14B at Q4 with a usable context window; above that band the weights spill to system RAM and system-RAM bandwidth sets the speed, not the GPU.

✅ 7–9B models (Llama 3.1 8B, Qwen 3 8B) — fits at Q4
✅ 12–14B models (Qwen 3 14B, Phi-4) — fits at Q4
❌ 20–27B models (Gemma 3 27B, Mistral Small) — needs 20 GB+
❌ 30–35B models (Qwen 3 32B, QwQ 32B) — needs 24 GB+
❌ 70B models (Llama 3.3 70B, Qwen 2.5 72B) — needs 48 GB+

Across 12 community runs from 10 sources, the GeForce RTX 4070 generates a median 77.2 tok/s on 7–9B models at Q4 (per llama.cpp GitHub (Vulkan scoreboard)).
