🚀 Architectural Breakthroughs

  • Memory Interface: 512-bit GDDR7 at 1,792 GB/s bandwidth (RTX 5090) vs 384-bit GDDR6X at 1,008 GB/s (RTX 4090).
  • VRAM Capacity: 32GB GDDR7 vs 24GB GDDR6X.
  • Tokens Per Second (Llama 3 70B Q4_K_M):
  • RTX 5090 (32GB): 68.4 tok/sec (Fits full model weights in VRAM without offloading)
  • RTX 4090 (24GB): 28.1 tok/sec (Requires CPU system RAM offloading for 70B parameters)
