Can the GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER run Qwen3-14B?
Yes. The Q4_K_M GGUF of Qwen3-14B is 9 GB (source). With our 1.5 GB allowance for runtime and short-context cache it needs about 10.5 GB, leaving 1.5 GB of the card's 12 GB free. Expected speed: ~43 tok/s estimate. Lowest tracked price: low $966, avg $1,156 (used) source, 2026-10-16, which works out to $22 per tok/s (#11 of 16 priced GPUs that fit this model).
Last updated Oct 16, 2026. Speed is a bandwidth-based estimate (504.2 GB/s, TechPowerUp), not a benchmark. Long contexts need more memory than our allowance.
Tight fit: under 3 GB spare means long prompts or a bigger context window may not fit. Consider a smaller quant or a card with more VRAM.
Next size up: gpt-oss-20b (11.67 GB at Q4_K_M) needs ~13.2 GB and does not fit on one NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER. See what runs gpt-oss-20b.
