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.

Largest model
Mixtral 8x7B
The Quadro RTX 6000 Mobile carries 24 GB of GDDR6, which covers the mid-sized models most people actually run — about 21.6 GB of it after the runtime and driver reserve their working space.
The memory bus moves 672 GB/s across a 384-bit bus. That is the number that governs generation speed — arithmetic per byte read is small enough that the bus, not the cores, is what everything waits on.
The figure is the memory clock — 1.75 GHz here — multiplied by the bus width. It is why core counts predict generation speed so poorly.
Put together, the largest model that fits is Mixtral 8x7B at 46.7B, running Q3_K_M and producing around 59.5 tokens per second.
The chip and how it was built
The Quadro RTX 6000 Mobile is built on the TU102 graphics processor, using NVIDIA's Turing architecture, as part of the Quadro Turing-M(Tx000) generation.
The chip is manufactured by TSMC, on a 12 nm process, with a die measuring 754 mm², holding 18.6 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 September 2019, roughly 6 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.

On paper the Quadro RTX 6000 Mobile reaches 26.8 TFLOPS at half precision and 13.4 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 is 419 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.
The card carries 576 tensor cores across 72 streaming multiprocessors. These accelerate the matrix arithmetic at the heart of a transformer, and they are what make prompt processing — reading a long document before answering — dramatically faster than it would otherwise be.
Clocks run from 1.28 GHz at base to 1.46 GHz boosted. 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
The Quadro RTX 6000 Mobile has 64 KB of L1 cache, backed by 6 MB of L2. 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 4,608 shading units, 288 texture mapping units, and 96 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
The board occupies a igp. 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 PCIe 3.0 x16. 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.

The biggest open-weight models that fit on this card, newest first. Each is shown at the best compression the card can hold.
The fastest AI models on a Quadro RTX 6000 Mobile
Where this card produces tokens quickest. Smaller models dominate here, because generating each token means reading the whole model out of memory once.
Step by step
How to work out the tokens per second of a Quadro RTX 6000 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
Start with the model, not the specification
The table lists 502 models this Quadro RTX 6000 Mobile can run. Search by name, or by size — typing 27b matches on the parameter count even when the name never states it.
-
02
Set the context length you will actually use
Drag the slider to the conversation length you plan to work at. The cache grows with the conversation, and on 24 GB it is often what pushes a large model over the edge.
-
03
Set a minimum quality if you need one
Compression is what lets bigger models fit. The quality control drops any model that needs more of it than you are willing to give.
-
04
Read the speed and the range
The figures are calculated, not measured. 285 tok/s on Gemma 3 QAT 1B is the fastest result on this card, and like every row it carries a range that reflects how much the runtime matters.
-
05
Check the headroom before you decide
Compare what each model needs with the 24 GB this card provides. Tight means it works today; comfortable means it still works when the conversation grows.
-
06
Open the model to compare cards
Every model name in the table links to its own page, which runs the same calculation across every card we hold. That is where you see whether the Quadro RTX 6000 Mobile is the right buy for it or merely a card that fits.
Answers
Quadro RTX 6000 Mobile — common questions
Can a Quadro RTX 6000 Mobile run a 13B model?
Yes. For example a Quadro RTX 6000 Mobile runs DeepSeekMoE-16B at Q8_0, using about 17.5 GB of memory and generating around 98.8 tokens per second.
Can a Quadro RTX 6000 Mobile run a 30B model?
Yes. For example a Quadro RTX 6000 Mobile runs Nemotron 3-Nano-30B-A3B at Q4_K_M, using about 18.1 GB of memory and generating around 116 tokens per second.
How much memory does a Quadro RTX 6000 Mobile have?
A Quadro RTX 6000 Mobile has 24 GB of GDDR6 memory. Around a tenth of that is reserved by the inference runtime and the driver, leaving roughly 21.6 GB available for a model and its conversation.
What is the memory bandwidth of a Quadro RTX 6000 Mobile?
The Quadro RTX 6000 Mobile has 672 GB/s of memory bandwidth, across a 384-bit memory bus. 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.
What type of memory does a Quadro RTX 6000 Mobile use?
It uses GDDR6 clocked at 1.75 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.
Who makes the Quadro RTX 6000 Mobile?
The Quadro RTX 6000 Mobile is a NVIDIA product, with the chip manufactured by TSMC, on a 12 nm process.
When was the Quadro RTX 6000 Mobile released?
The Quadro RTX 6000 Mobile was released in September 2019.
How much cache does a Quadro RTX 6000 Mobile have?
The Quadro RTX 6000 Mobile has 64 KB of L1 cache, and 6 MB of L2 cache. 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.
What are the TFLOPS of a Quadro RTX 6000 Mobile?
The Quadro RTX 6000 Mobile is rated at 26.8 TFLOPS at half precision and 13.4 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.
How many tensor cores does a Quadro RTX 6000 Mobile have?
The Quadro RTX 6000 Mobile has 576 tensor cores across 72 streaming multiprocessors. They accelerate the matrix arithmetic a transformer is built from, which mainly speeds up processing a long prompt rather than producing the reply.
Does the Quadro RTX 6000 Mobile support CUDA?
Yes. The Quadro RTX 6000 Mobile reports CUDA compute capability 7.5. 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.
What bus interface does the Quadro RTX 6000 Mobile use?
It uses PCIe 3.0 x16. 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.
Is the Quadro RTX 6000 Mobile good for running local AI models?
Its memory comfortably covers the mid-sized models most people run locally and its bandwidth gives usable, if unspectacular, generation speeds. In total it runs 502 of the models we track. Whether that is enough depends entirely on which model you want — the table above answers that directly.
Can a Quadro RTX 6000 Mobile run a model that does not fit in its memory?
Only partly. Layers beyond the 24 GB sit in system memory and run at a fraction of the speed, so a mostly-offloaded model is rarely worth using. Every figure here assumes it is fully resident on the card.
Would two Quadro RTX 6000 Mobile cards be twice as fast?
Pairing Quadro RTX 6000 Mobile cards buys headroom rather than pace: 48 GB of combined memory, at roughly the same generation speed as one.
What AI models can a Quadro RTX 6000 Mobile run?
502 of the 679 open-weight language models we track fit on a Quadro RTX 6000 Mobile and can be run locally on it. The table on this page lists every one, with the memory it needs, the quantisation it runs at and an estimated generation speed.
What is the largest AI model a Quadro RTX 6000 Mobile can run?
The largest model in our catalogue that fits on a Quadro RTX 6000 Mobile is Mixtral 8x7B at 46.7B parameters, compressed to Q3_K_M. It generates roughly 59.5 tokens per second and needs about 21.0 GB of the card's memory.
How many tokens per second does a Quadro RTX 6000 Mobile produce?
It depends on the model. On a Quadro RTX 6000 Mobile the fastest model we track is Gemma 3 QAT 1B at about 285 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.
Can a Quadro RTX 6000 Mobile run a 7B model?
Yes. For example a Quadro RTX 6000 Mobile runs Multi-Token Prediction 7B at Q8_0, using about 7.9 GB of memory and generating around 42.5 tokens per second.
