Can I Run Qwen3-Coder 8B on NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8GB?

Autor: Jakub Rusinowski · Ostatnia aktualizacja: 11 września 2026

Yes. Qwen3-Coder 8B needs 4.8 GB at Q4_K_M and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8GB has 8 GB, leaving about 3.2 GB of headroom, at roughly 61 tok/s (estimated) with room for up to 8K of context.

The numbers

Qwen3-Coder 8B on the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8GB: VRAM by quantization

Assumes a 4K-token context with an f16 KV cache, on an estimated architecture — this model publishes no config we can read. A longer window needs more; a quantized KV cache needs less. “Max context” is the largest window that still fits in 8 GB. Figures are estimates from parameter count, quantization and memory bandwidth — the analyzer lets you tune KV-cache quant and context.

Context costs VRAM too. At Q4_K_M on the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8GB: 8K 6.8 GB · 32K 10.2 GB ✗ · 125K 23.5 GB ✗. Past 32K it no longer fits 8 GB — a q8_0 KV cache buys roughly half of that back, which the calculator will price for you.

What to do next

Nothing to change — run it at Q4_K_M. If you want more capability, check whether the next size up also fits.
