GPU Memory Bandwidth Crucial for Local LLM Speed, Outpacing VRAM

For running large language models locally, GPU memory bandwidth is a more critical factor than VRAM capacity. Higher bandwidth allows the GPU to process data more quickly, preventing it from being bottlenecked while waiting for information from VRAM. This difference can lead to significantly faster token generation speeds, with some cards showing double the performance due to bandwidth alone, even with similar compute specs. AI
