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

Memory: the specification that decides everything

Memory

10 GB

Bandwidth

560 GB/s

Largest model

Ling-lite-1.5 ("Bailing")

At 10 GB of GDDR6 the Xbox Series X GPU is limited to the smaller end of the catalogue. About 9 GB is actually available to a runtime, and a model has to fit entirely inside it before generating anything at all.

The memory bus moves 560 GB/s across a 320-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.

That comes from a 1.75 GHz memory clock across the bus width above. Widening the bus and raising the clock are the two levers a manufacturer has, which is why a card with unremarkable cores can still generate quickly.

Put together, the largest model that fits is Ling-lite-1.5 ("Bailing") at 16.8B, running Q3_K_M and producing around 29.7 tokens per second.

The chip and how it was built

The Xbox Series X GPU is built on the Scarlett graphics processor, using AMD's RDNA 2.0 architecture, as part of the Console GPU(Microsoft) generation.

The chip is manufactured by TSMC, on a 7 nm process, with a die measuring 360 mm², holding 15.3 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 November 2020, roughly 5 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

24.3 TFLOPS

FP64

759.2 GFLOPS

On paper the Xbox Series X GPU reaches 24.3 TFLOPS at half precision and 12.2 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 is 759.2 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 1.83 GHz at base to 1.83 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

backed by 5 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 3,328 shading units, 208 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

The Xbox Series X GPU 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.

measuring 301 mm long. 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.

Step by step

How to work out the tokens per second of a Xbox Series X GPU

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.

  1. 01

    Start with the model, not the specification

    All 381 models the Xbox Series X GPU handles are already listed. The search box takes a name or a size such as 27b, which matches on parameter count.

  2. 02

    Match the context to your work

    Set the context to your real working length. Short questions cost almost nothing; a long document can consume a large share of the card's 10 GB.

  3. 03

    Choose how far you will compress

    Compression is what lets bigger models fit. The quality control drops any model that needs more of it than you are willing to give.

  4. 04

    Read the speed and the range

    Each speed is an estimate for a single conversation, with a range beneath it — 185 tok/s on Gemma 3 QAT 1B at the top end here. The same card and model vary by thirty to fifty per cent between inference runtimes.

  5. 05

    Check the headroom before you decide

    The fit column separates models that just fit from those with room to spare — worth checking against the card's 10 GB before settling on one.

  6. 06

    Cross-check against other hardware

    Following a model through to its own page lists all the hardware that can run it, so you can see where the Xbox Series X GPU sits against the alternatives.

Answers

Xbox Series X GPU — common questions

01

Would two Xbox Series X GPU cards be twice as fast?

Capacity adds, throughput does not. Two of them give you 20 GB to work with rather than twice the tokens per second — every figure here is for a single Xbox Series X GPU.

02

What AI models can a Xbox Series X GPU run?

381 of the 679 open-weight language models we track fit on a Xbox Series X GPU 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.

03

What is the largest AI model a Xbox Series X GPU can run?

The largest model in our catalogue that fits on a Xbox Series X GPU is Ling-lite-1.5 ("Bailing") at 16.8B parameters, compressed to Q3_K_M. It generates roughly 29.7 tokens per second and needs about 8.9 GB of the card's memory.

04

How many tokens per second does a Xbox Series X GPU produce?

It depends on the model. On a Xbox Series X GPU the fastest model we track is Gemma 3 QAT 1B at about 185 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.

05

Can a Xbox Series X GPU run a 7B model?

Yes. For example a Xbox Series X GPU runs DeepSeek Coder 6.7B at Q4_K_M, using about 8.3 GB of memory and generating around 63.8 tokens per second.

06

Can a Xbox Series X GPU run a 13B model?

Yes. For example a Xbox Series X GPU runs DeepSeekMoE-16B at Q3_K_M, using about 8.1 GB of memory and generating around 173 tokens per second.

07

How much memory does a Xbox Series X GPU have?

A Xbox Series X GPU has 10 GB of GDDR6 memory. Around a tenth of that is reserved by the inference runtime and the driver, leaving roughly 9 GB available for a model and its conversation.

08

What is the memory bandwidth of a Xbox Series X GPU?

The Xbox Series X GPU has 560 GB/s of memory bandwidth, across a 320-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.

09

What type of memory does a Xbox Series X GPU 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.

10

Who makes the Xbox Series X GPU?

The Xbox Series X GPU is a AMD product, with the chip manufactured by TSMC, on a 7 nm process.

11

When was the Xbox Series X GPU released?

The Xbox Series X GPU was released in November 2020.

12

How much power does a Xbox Series X GPU use?

The Xbox Series X GPU has a rated board power of 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.

13

How much cache does a Xbox Series X GPU have?

and 5 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.

14

What are the TFLOPS of a Xbox Series X GPU?

The Xbox Series X GPU is rated at 24.3 TFLOPS at half precision and 12.2 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.

15

Does the Xbox Series X GPU support CUDA?

No. CUDA is NVIDIA-only, and the Xbox Series X GPU is a AMD card. It runs language models through ROCm, Vulkan or Metal depending on the software, which are less mature than the CUDA path — our estimates apply a penalty for that.

16

Is the Xbox Series X GPU good for running local AI models?

Its memory limits it to smaller models and its bandwidth gives usable, if unspectacular, generation speeds. In total it runs 381 of the models we track. Whether that is enough depends entirely on which model you want — the table above answers that directly.

17

Can a Xbox Series X GPU run a model that does not fit in its memory?

Offloading past the card's 10 GB is possible and usually a false economy: the system-memory portion is slow enough to dominate the result.

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.
