RTX 4090 vs NVIDIA GB10 for Local AI: Speed When It Fits, Headroom When It Doesn’t
A practical RTX 4090 vs NVIDIA GB10 local AI benchmark comparing Qwen3.6 35B Q4, Q5, MXFP4, long-context workloads, and dense 70B inference. The results show where the RTX 4090 dominates, where GB10’s memory headroom matters, and why the VRAM cliff is one of the most important limits in local AI hardware.
