Yes
Yes — Codestral 22B at Q3_K_M needs about 12.1 GB of the 16 GB usable on RTX 5060 Ti 16 GB Desktop (16 GB VRAM, 32 GB RAM) (~3.9 GB spare), at ~30.1 tok/s (estimated), with room for about 16,384 tokens of context.
Confidence: high · Recommended quantization: Q3_K_M · Estimated speed: ~30.1 tok/s

Codestral on RTX 5060 Ti 16 GB Desktop (16 GB VRAM, 32 GB RAM): memory by quantization
| Quant | Memory needed | Fits 16 GB? | Max context | Est. speed | Download |

| Q2_K | 10 GB | ✓ Yes | 32K | ~37.4 tok/s | 7.3 GB |
What to watch out for
- Q3_K_M is the only quantization that fits, and it is a heavily degraded one — expect noticeably worse output than the same model at Q4_K_M. A smaller model at Q4 is usually the better trade.
- 1 larger variant of Codestral does not fit and would need CPU offload or different hardware.
RTX 5060 Ti 16 GB desktop limitations
- The cheapest current 16 GB card, but its 448 GB/s bandwidth caps generation speed well below a 5080 on the same model.
Recommended setup
Ollama or llama.cpp (CUDA/ROCm) — vLLM if you need concurrent serving
How these numbers are calculated
- Memory need = quantized weights + KV cache at 8,192 tokens (f16) + 0.8 GB runtime overhead.
- 16 GB of VRAM on the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16GB at 448 GB/s.
- 32 GB of system RAM available for CPU offload when a model exceeds VRAM.
- Throughput is a memory-bandwidth roofline estimate, not a measurement. It is labelled "estimated" everywhere it appears.
- KV cache is computed from this model's published attention configuration.
