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
32 GB
Bandwidth
205 GB/s
Largest model
Phi-3.5-MoE
The Jetson AGX Orin 32 GB carries 32 GB of LPDDR5, which covers the mid-sized models most people actually run — about 28.8 GB of it after the runtime and driver reserve their working space.
At 205 GB/s across a 256-bit bus, 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.
Bandwidth is clock times bus width, and this card clocks its memory at 800 MHz. Both halves matter, and neither is visible in a gaming benchmark.
The biggest thing it holds is Phi-3.5-MoE (60.8B) at Q3_K_M compression, for about 21.4 tokens per second.
The chip and how it was built
The Jetson AGX Orin 32 GB is built on the GA10B graphics processor, using NVIDIA's Ampere architecture, as part of the Tegra(Ampere) generation.
The chip is manufactured by Samsung, on a 8 nm process, with a die measuring 200 mm². 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 February 2023, roughly 3 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
6.7 TFLOPS
Tensor cores
56
On paper the Jetson AGX Orin 32 GB reaches 6.7 TFLOPS at half precision and 3.3 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.
The card carries 56 tensor cores across 14 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 930 MHz at base to 930 MHz 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 Jetson AGX Orin 32 GB has 128 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 1,792 shading units, 56 texture mapping units, and 24 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
40 W
The Jetson AGX Orin 32 GB is rated at 40 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, measuring 100 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.
It connects over PCIe 4.0 x4. 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 Jetson AGX Orin 32 GB
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
All 513 models the Jetson AGX Orin 32 GB handles are already listed. The search box takes a name or a size such as 27b, which matches on parameter count.
-
02
Decide how long your conversations run
Drag the slider to the conversation length you plan to work at. The cache grows with the conversation, and on 32 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. 86.7 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
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 32 GB available.
-
06
Check the same model from the other side
Each model page repeats this calculation for the whole catalogue. Worth a look before deciding: it shows what else runs the same model, and how the Jetson AGX Orin 32 GB compares.
Answers
Jetson AGX Orin 32 GB — common questions
Can a Jetson AGX Orin 32 GB run a model that does not fit in its memory?
Offloading past the card's 32 GB is possible and usually a false economy: the system-memory portion is slow enough to dominate the result.
Would two Jetson AGX Orin 32 GB cards be twice as fast?
No. A second Jetson AGX Orin 32 GB doubles the memory to 64 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 Jetson AGX Orin 32 GB run?
513 of the 679 open-weight language models we track fit on a Jetson AGX Orin 32 GB 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 Jetson AGX Orin 32 GB can run?
The largest model in our catalogue that fits on a Jetson AGX Orin 32 GB is Phi-3.5-MoE at 60.8B parameters, compressed to Q3_K_M. It generates roughly 21.4 tokens per second and needs about 27.2 GB of the card's memory.
How many tokens per second does a Jetson AGX Orin 32 GB produce?
It depends on the model. On a Jetson AGX Orin 32 GB the fastest model we track is Gemma 3 QAT 1B at about 86.7 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 Jetson AGX Orin 32 GB run a 7B model?
Yes. For example a Jetson AGX Orin 32 GB runs Multi-Token Prediction 7B at Q8_0, using about 7.9 GB of memory and generating around 13.0 tokens per second.
Can a Jetson AGX Orin 32 GB run a 13B model?
Yes. For example a Jetson AGX Orin 32 GB runs DeepSeekMoE-16B at Q8_0, using about 17.5 GB of memory and generating around 30.1 tokens per second.
Can a Jetson AGX Orin 32 GB run a 30B model?
Yes. For example a Jetson AGX Orin 32 GB runs ERNIE-4.5-VL-28B-A3B at Q6_K, using about 22.7 GB of memory and generating around 25.0 tokens per second.
How much memory does a Jetson AGX Orin 32 GB have?
A Jetson AGX Orin 32 GB has 32 GB of LPDDR5 memory. Around a tenth of that is reserved by the inference runtime and the driver, leaving roughly 28.8 GB available for a model and its conversation.
What is the memory bandwidth of a Jetson AGX Orin 32 GB?
The Jetson AGX Orin 32 GB has 205 GB/s of memory bandwidth, across a 256-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 Jetson AGX Orin 32 GB use?
It uses LPDDR5 clocked at 800 MHz. 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 Jetson AGX Orin 32 GB?
The Jetson AGX Orin 32 GB is a NVIDIA product, with the chip manufactured by Samsung, on a 8 nm process.
When was the Jetson AGX Orin 32 GB released?
The Jetson AGX Orin 32 GB was released in February 2023.
How much power does a Jetson AGX Orin 32 GB use?
The Jetson AGX Orin 32 GB has a rated board power of 40 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 Jetson AGX Orin 32 GB have?
The Jetson AGX Orin 32 GB has 128 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 Jetson AGX Orin 32 GB?
The Jetson AGX Orin 32 GB is rated at 6.7 TFLOPS at half precision and 3.3 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 Jetson AGX Orin 32 GB have?
The Jetson AGX Orin 32 GB has 56 tensor cores across 14 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 Jetson AGX Orin 32 GB support CUDA?
Yes. The Jetson AGX Orin 32 GB reports CUDA compute capability 8.7. 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 Jetson AGX Orin 32 GB use?
It uses PCIe 4.0 x4. 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 Jetson AGX Orin 32 GB good for running local AI models?
Its memory comfortably covers the mid-sized models most people run locally though its bandwidth means generation will feel slow on larger models. In total it runs 513 of the models we track. Whether that is enough depends entirely on which model you want — the table above answers that directly.
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.
