Can the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti run WildGuard 7B?

79Great quality (A) · 79 of 100: how capable the model is at Q6_K, whatever it runs on. Match score 83/100 (quality, fit, speed and memory use) sets the ranking.

Yes, it runs well

Runs well. At Q6_K it needs about 7.6 GB of 16.0 GB usable and makes one decision in about 178 ms.

Best app to run it on the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti

On Windows

Sentence Transformers

Python library · runs on PyTorch (Transformers)

  • A few lines of Python with Transformers or Sentence Transformers; easiest for scripts and notebooks.

Get Sentence Transformers

  • Docker Model Runner Handy if you already work in Docker.
  • vLLM For one person, llama.cpp-based apps are about as fast and use smaller GGUF files.

On Linux

Docker Model Runner

Command line + local API · runs on llama.cpp, vLLM

  • Handy if you already work in Docker.
docker model run hf.co/allenai/wildguard
  • vLLM For one person, llama.cpp-based apps are about as fast and use smaller GGUF files.
  • Sentence Transformers A few lines of Python with Transformers or Sentence Transformers; easiest for scripts and notebooks.

How we choose: the files published for this model, your operating system and GPU, whether it fits fully in memory, and published speed tests (MLX vs llama.cpp on Apple silicon, vLLM vs llama.cpp vs Ollama on NVIDIA). Details.

How it’s rated

Quality 79Great quality (A) · 79 of 100: how capable the model is at Q6_K, whatever it runs on. Match score 83/100 (quality, fit, speed and memory use) sets the ranking.
How capable the model itself is at Q6_K, from its editorial quality tier scaled by the quantization or precision. It’s the same on any hardware that runs this variant. Scale: S 85+ · A 70+ · B 55+ · C 40+ · D under 40.
Runs Runs well
How well it runs on the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti: speed, capped by how well it fits in memory. Runs great: 30+ tokens/s (or near the image, video or decision speed target) · Runs well: 10+ tokens/s · Slow: 3+ tokens/s · Very slow: under 3 · Won’t run: doesn’t fit even with offload. A tight fit or RAM offload caps it at Runs well; heavy offload caps it at Slow.

Match score

To order lists, each result also gets a match score out of 100 from four parts. It favors the most capable model that still runs well.

PrecisionEditorial precision tier from the model’s published benchmarks, scaled by the quantization or precision used.35.6 / 45
Memory fitFull marks when everything sits in GPU memory; fewer when part spills to system RAM.25.0 / 25
SpeedTime for one decision against a 100 ms target: reading the input plus any tokens the model writes.11.2 / 15
ClarityHow easy the answer is to use in code: a probability or score earns the most, written feedback before a score the least.12.0 / 15
Match score83.9 / 100

The match score orders results; it is not shown as a grade. Quality and Runs are the two ratings in the tables.

Other hardware that runs it

Estimates come from published hardware specs and our open formulas, not from running the model on your machine. Real speed varies with runtime, drivers and settings. Numbers marked “Measured” come from a linked benchmark.
