Speeds are estimates for a single request — one conversation at a time — calculated from memory bandwidth, model size and quantisation. Real throughput varies with the inference runtime and its version. Figures published by hardware vendors measure many simultaneous requests and are much higher.

What the numbers mean
Why memory is the number that matters here
Memory
16 GB
Bandwidth
192 GB/s
Largest model
Nemotron 3-Nano-30B-A3B
Quadro P5000 X2 Mobile carries 16 GB of GDDR5. That reaches comfortably into small and mid-sized models, though the largest stay out of reach without splitting them. Driver overhead leaves roughly 14.4 GB.
Memory bandwidth reaches 192 GB/s across a bus of 256 bits. Bandwidth is this card's real constraint. Every token requires reading the entire model out of memory, so a large model will feel slow here even when it fits.
That comes from a memory clock of 1.5 GHz. Both halves matter, and neither is visible in a gaming benchmark.
The practical ceiling is Nemotron 3-Nano-30B-A3B, 31.6B, compressed to Q3_K_M and generating around 32.8 tokens per second.
The chip and how it was built
Quadro P5000 X2 Mobile is built on the graphics processor GP104, using the architecture Pascal from NVIDIA, as part of the generation Quadro Pascal-M(Px000).
The chip is manufactured by TSMC, on a process of 16 nm, with a die measuring 314 mm², holding 7.2 billion transistors. A smaller process generally means more performance for the same power, though for language models it matters far less than the memory subsystem.
It was released in January 2017, roughly 9.5532706903284 years ago. Inference software support tends to follow hardware by a year or two, so a card of this age generally has mature, well-optimised code paths available to it.
Compute throughput, and why it matters less than it looks
FP16
96.4 GFLOPS
FP64
192.8 GFLOPS
On paper Quadro P5000 X2 Mobile reaches 96.4 GFLOPS at half precision, and 6.2 TFLOPS at single precision. These are peak figures no real workload sustains, and generating text reaches only a small fraction of them — decoding is limited by memory rather than arithmetic, which is why a card can look enormously powerful here and still produce tokens at an ordinary rate.
Double-precision throughput reaches 192.8 GFLOPS. It has no bearing on running a language model — no inference runtime uses it — but it separates datacentre parts from consumer ones, since the latter deliberately restrict it.
Clocks run from a base of 1.16 GHz to a boost of 1.51 GHz. Worth far less here than on a gaming benchmark: raising the clock speeds up the arithmetic, and the arithmetic is not what generation is waiting on.
Cache and processing units
Quadro P5000 X2 Mobile has an L1 cache of 48 KB, backed by an L2 cache of 2 MB. Cache absorbs a share of the memory traffic that would otherwise hit the main bus, which is the one place on this page where a number other than bandwidth quietly affects generation speed — a large L2 lets more of the working set stay close to the cores.
There are 2,048 shading units, 128 texture mapping units, and 64 render output units. These drive graphics workloads and contribute to prompt processing, but they sit idle for much of the time a model spends generating a reply.
Power, size and installation
Power draw
200 W
Quadro P5000 X2 Mobile is rated at 200 W. Running a language model keeps a card busy in bursts rather than continuously — it draws hard while generating and idles between requests — so sustained draw over a working day is usually well below the rated figure.
The board occupies mxm module. Worth checking against the case and power supply already in the machine, since the largest cards need considerably more of both than a typical desktop provides.
It connects over MXM-B (3.0). The interface governs how quickly a model is loaded from disk into the card, not how fast it runs once there, so a narrower link costs a few seconds at startup and nothing thereafter.

Step by step
How to work out the tokens per second of a Quadro P5000 X2 Mobile
You do not have to calculate anything by hand — the gputps.com calculator on this page has already worked it out for every model this card can hold. Reading off the answer takes six steps.
-
01
Find the model in the table
The table lists 432 models this card runs. Search narrows the list by name or by size.
-
02
Set the context length you will actually use
Longer conversations cost memory on top of the weights. Against 16 GB so the setting is worth getting right.
-
03
Choose how far you will compress
By default the table picks the least-compressed copy that fits. Setting a floor removes models that only qualify through heavy compression.
-
04
Take the range as the answer
Each speed is an estimate for a single conversation, with a range beneath it. The top end here is 69.1 tok/s on Gemma 3 QAT 1B. The same card and model vary by thirty to fifty per cent between inference runtimes.
-
05
Check the memory column before committing
A tight fit runs but leaves no room to raise the context later; comfortable has headroom. The memory column shows what each model needs against an available 16 GB.

Following a model through to its own page lists all the hardware that can run it, so you can see how it compares against Quadro P5000 X2 Mobile.
Answers
Quadro P5000 X2 Mobile — common questions
Quadro P5000 X2 Mobile— what is the largest AI model it can run?
The largest model in our catalogue that fits is Nemotron 3-Nano-30B-A3B at 31.6B parameters, compressed to Q3_K_M. It generates roughly 32.8 tokens per second and needs about 14.4 GB of the card's memory.
Quadro P5000 X2 Mobile— how many tokens per second does it produce?
It depends on the model. The fastest model we track here is Gemma 3 QAT 1B at about 69.1 tokens per second, while larger models run proportionally slower because each token requires reading the whole model out of memory once. Speeds are estimates for a single conversation at a time.
Quadro P5000 X2 Mobile— can it run 7B models?
Yes. For example it runs Multi-Token Prediction 7B at Q8_0, using about 7.9 GB of memory and generating around 10.3 tokens per second.
Quadro P5000 X2 Mobile— can it run 13B models?
Yes. For example it runs DeepSeekMoE-16B at Q6_K, using about 13.7 GB of memory and generating around 34.9 tokens per second.
Quadro P5000 X2 Mobile— can it run 30B models?
Yes. For example it runs ERNIE-4.5-VL-28B-A3B at Q3_K_M, using about 12.9 GB of memory and generating around 37.0 tokens per second.
Quadro P5000 X2 Mobile— how much memory does it have?
This card has 16 GB of GDDR5. Around a tenth is reserved by the inference runtime and the driver, leaving roughly 14.4 GB available for a model and its conversation.
Quadro P5000 X2 Mobile— what is its memory bandwidth?
Memory bandwidth reaches 192 GB/s across a bus of 256 bits. This is the single best predictor of how fast it generates text, because producing each token means reading the entire model out of memory once.
Quadro P5000 X2 Mobile— what type of memory does it use?
It uses GDDR5 clocked at 1.5 GHz. HBM types are found on datacentre accelerators and carry far more bandwidth than the GDDR used on desktop cards, which is why they generate tokens considerably faster at the same capacity.
Quadro P5000 X2 Mobile— who makes it?
This is a product of NVIDIA, with the chip manufactured by TSMC, on a process of 16 nm.
Quadro P5000 X2 Mobile— when was it released?
It was released in January 2017.
Quadro P5000 X2 Mobile— how much power does it use?
Rated board power is 200 W. Generating text draws hard in bursts and idles between requests, so average consumption over a working session is normally well below the rated figure.
Quadro P5000 X2 Mobile— how much cache does it have?
The L1 cache is 48 KB, and the L2 cache is 2 MB. Cache absorbs part of the memory traffic that would otherwise reach the main bus, so a larger L2 gives a modest lift to generation speed beyond what bandwidth alone predicts.
Quadro P5000 X2 Mobile— what are its TFLOPS?
It is rated at 96.4 GFLOPS at half precision and 6.2 TFLOPS at single precision. These are peak arithmetic ceilings rather than achievable rates, and text generation reaches only a small fraction of them because it is limited by memory bandwidth instead.
Quadro P5000 X2 Mobile— does it support CUDA?
Yes. It reports CUDA compute capability 6.1, which predates tensor cores. Capability 7.0 and above has tensor cores, which modern inference software uses; below that it falls back to slower code paths for quantised models.
Quadro P5000 X2 Mobile— what bus interface does it use?
It uses MXM-B (3.0). This governs how fast a model is loaded onto the card rather than how fast it runs once loaded, so it costs a few seconds at startup and nothing during generation.
Quadro P5000 X2 Mobile— is it good for running local AI models?
Its memory covers small and mid-sized models, though the largest are out of reach though its bandwidth means generation will feel slow on larger models. In total it runs 432 of the models we track. Whether that is enough depends entirely on which model you want — the table above answers that directly.
Quadro P5000 X2 Mobile— can it run a model that does not fit in its memory?
It can be split, with the overflow held in system memory beyond the card's 16 GB drags the whole thing down, and none of the figures on this page assume it.
Would two Quadro P5000 X2 Mobile cards be twice as fast?
Pairing them buys headroom rather than pace: 32 GB of combined memory, at roughly the same generation speed as one.
Quadro P5000 X2 Mobile— which AI models can it run?
432 of the 679 open-weight language models we track fit on this card and can be run locally. The table on this page lists every one, with the memory it needs, the quantisation it runs at and an estimated generation speed.
The other direction
Looking at it from the other side?
This page starts from the hardware. If you already know which model you want and need to know what it takes to run it, start from the model instead.
