Can NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 run Stable Video Diffusion?

1.5B parameter Video Gen model on 16GB GDDR7

Yes — runs at full precision
~0.7-1 clips/min
SpeedFastest possible inference
QualityMaximum quality, no degradation

VRAM Requirements

Stable Video Diffusion is a 1.5B parameter model. At full precision (FP16), it requires 8GB of VRAM. Your NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 has 16GB — enough to run it without any quantization.

Recommended system RAM: 32GB DDR5 (2x GPU VRAM minimum for model overflow)

What This Means in Practice

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 can run Stable Video Diffusion at full precision for video generation. You can generate short video clips from text prompts or images at maximum quality. Video generation is very compute-intensive — expect each clip to take 30 seconds to several minutes depending on resolution and length.
