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
Capacity and bandwidth
Memory
10 GB
Bandwidth
320 GB/s
Largest model
Ling-lite-1.5 ("Bailing")
At 10 GB of GDDR6 the Radeon RX 6700M 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 320 GB/s across a 160-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.
Bandwidth is clock times bus width, and this card clocks its memory at 2 GHz. Both halves matter, and neither is visible in a gaming benchmark.
The practical ceiling is Ling-lite-1.5 ("Bailing") at 16.8B, held at Q3_K_M and running at roughly 17.0 tokens per second.
The chip and how it was built
The Radeon RX 6700M is built on the Navi 22 graphics processor, using AMD's RDNA 2.0 architecture, as part of the Navi Mobile(RX 6000M) generation.
The chip is manufactured by TSMC, on a 7 nm process, with a die measuring 335 mm², holding 17.2 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 May 2021, 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
22.1 TFLOPS
FP64
691.2 GFLOPS
On paper the Radeon RX 6700M reaches 22.1 TFLOPS at half precision and 11.1 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 691.2 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 1.49 GHz at base to 2.4 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 Radeon RX 6700M has 128 KB of L1 cache, backed by 3 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 2,304 shading units, 144 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
135 W
The Radeon RX 6700M is rated at 135 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 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 4.0 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.

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 Radeon RX 6700M
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 381 models this Radeon RX 6700M 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 10 GB it is often what pushes a large model over the edge.
-
03
Set a minimum quality if you need one
By default the table picks the least-compressed copy that fits. Setting a floor removes models that only qualify through heavy compression.
-
04
Look at the range, not just the number
Speeds come with error bars for a reason. The best case here is 106 tok/s on Gemma 3 QAT 1B, and which inference software you use moves that by thirty to fifty per cent.
-
05
Check the headroom before you decide
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 the 10 GB available.
-
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 Radeon RX 6700M sits against the alternatives.
Answers
Radeon RX 6700M — common questions
Who makes the Radeon RX 6700M?
The Radeon RX 6700M is a AMD product, with the chip manufactured by TSMC, on a 7 nm process.
When was the Radeon RX 6700M released?
The Radeon RX 6700M was released in May 2021.
How much power does a Radeon RX 6700M use?
The Radeon RX 6700M has a rated board power of 135 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.
How much cache does a Radeon RX 6700M have?
The Radeon RX 6700M has 128 KB of L1 cache, and 3 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 Radeon RX 6700M?
The Radeon RX 6700M is rated at 22.1 TFLOPS at half precision and 11.1 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.
Does the Radeon RX 6700M support CUDA?
No. CUDA is NVIDIA-only, and the Radeon RX 6700M 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.
What bus interface does the Radeon RX 6700M use?
It uses PCIe 4.0 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 Radeon RX 6700M good for running local AI models?
Its memory limits it to smaller models though its bandwidth means generation will feel slow on larger models. 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.
Can a Radeon RX 6700M run a model that does not fit in its memory?
It can be split, with the overflow held in system memory — but that part drags the whole thing down, and none of the 10 GB figures on this page assume it.
Would two Radeon RX 6700M cards be twice as fast?
No. A second Radeon RX 6700M doubles the memory to 20 GB, which lets you hold models neither could hold alone, but generation does not split that way. These figures describe one card.
What AI models can a Radeon RX 6700M run?
381 of the 679 open-weight language models we track fit on a Radeon RX 6700M 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 Radeon RX 6700M can run?
The largest model in our catalogue that fits on a Radeon RX 6700M is Ling-lite-1.5 ("Bailing") at 16.8B parameters, compressed to Q3_K_M. It generates roughly 17.0 tokens per second and needs about 8.9 GB of the card's memory.
How many tokens per second does a Radeon RX 6700M produce?
It depends on the model. On a Radeon RX 6700M the fastest model we track is Gemma 3 QAT 1B at about 106 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 Radeon RX 6700M run a 7B model?
Yes. For example a Radeon RX 6700M runs DeepSeek Coder 6.7B at Q4_K_M, using about 8.3 GB of memory and generating around 36.4 tokens per second.
Can a Radeon RX 6700M run a 13B model?
Yes. For example a Radeon RX 6700M runs DeepSeekMoE-16B at Q3_K_M, using about 8.1 GB of memory and generating around 99.1 tokens per second.
How much memory does a Radeon RX 6700M have?
A Radeon RX 6700M 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.
What is the memory bandwidth of a Radeon RX 6700M?
The Radeon RX 6700M has 320 GB/s of memory bandwidth, across a 160-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 Radeon RX 6700M use?
It uses GDDR6 clocked at 2 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.
