What the numbers mean
What the memory subsystem means for AI
Memory
16 GB
Bandwidth
576 GB/s
Largest model
Nemotron 3-Nano-30B-A3B
16 GB of GDDR6 puts the Playstation 5 Pro GPU comfortably into small and mid-sized models, with roughly 14.4 GB usable once the driver overhead is taken out. The largest models are out of reach without splitting them.
The memory bus moves 576 GB/s across a 256-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 2.25 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.
In practice that combination tops out at Nemotron 3-Nano-30B-A3B — 31.6B, compressed to Q3_K_M, generating around 90.3 tokens per second.
The chip and how it was built
The Playstation 5 Pro GPU is built on the Viola graphics processor, using AMD's RDNA 2.0 architecture, as part of the Console GPU(Sony) generation.
The chip is manufactured by TSMC, on a 4 nm process, with a die measuring 279 mm², holding 21 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 2024, roughly 1 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
36.1 TFLOPS
FP64
1.1 TFLOPS
On paper the Playstation 5 Pro GPU reaches 36.1 TFLOPS at half precision and 18.1 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 1.1 TFLOPS. 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 2.17 GHz at base to 2.35 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 4 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 3,840 shading units, 240 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
232 W
The Playstation 5 Pro GPU is rated at 232 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 386 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 Playstation 5 Pro 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.
-
01
Find the model in the table
Every one of the 432 models this Playstation 5 Pro GPU runs is in the table above. Search narrows it by name or by size.
-
02
Decide how long your conversations run
Longer conversations cost memory on top of the weights. With 16 GB to work in, that is frequently the difference between a model fitting and not.
-
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
Take the range as the answer
Each speed is an estimate for a single conversation, with a range beneath it — 190 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.
-
05
Check the memory column before committing
Compare what each model needs with the 16 GB this card provides. Tight means it works today; comfortable means it still works when the conversation grows.
-
06
Cross-check against other hardware
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 Playstation 5 Pro GPU compares.
Answers
Playstation 5 Pro GPU — common questions
Can a Playstation 5 Pro GPU run a 30B model?
Yes. For example a Playstation 5 Pro GPU runs ERNIE-4.5-VL-28B-A3B at Q3_K_M, using about 12.9 GB of memory and generating around 102 tokens per second.
How much memory does a Playstation 5 Pro GPU have?
A Playstation 5 Pro GPU has 16 GB of GDDR6 memory. Around a tenth of that is reserved by the inference runtime and the driver, leaving roughly 14.4 GB available for a model and its conversation.
What is the memory bandwidth of a Playstation 5 Pro GPU?
The Playstation 5 Pro GPU has 576 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 Playstation 5 Pro GPU use?
It uses GDDR6 clocked at 2.25 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 Playstation 5 Pro GPU?
The Playstation 5 Pro GPU is a AMD product, with the chip manufactured by TSMC, on a 4 nm process.
When was the Playstation 5 Pro GPU released?
The Playstation 5 Pro GPU was released in November 2024.
How much power does a Playstation 5 Pro GPU use?
The Playstation 5 Pro GPU has a rated board power of 232 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 Playstation 5 Pro GPU have?
and 4 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 Playstation 5 Pro GPU?
The Playstation 5 Pro GPU is rated at 36.1 TFLOPS at half precision and 18.1 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 Playstation 5 Pro GPU support CUDA?
No. CUDA is NVIDIA-only, and the Playstation 5 Pro 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.
Is the Playstation 5 Pro GPU good for running local AI models?
Its memory covers small and mid-sized models, though the largest are out of reach and its bandwidth gives usable, if unspectacular, generation speeds. 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.
Can a Playstation 5 Pro GPU 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 16 GB figures on this page assume it.
Would two Playstation 5 Pro GPU cards be twice as fast?
Pairing Playstation 5 Pro GPU cards buys headroom rather than pace: 32 GB of combined memory, at roughly the same generation speed as one.
What AI models can a Playstation 5 Pro GPU run?
432 of the 679 open-weight language models we track fit on a Playstation 5 Pro 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.
What is the largest AI model a Playstation 5 Pro GPU can run?
The largest model in our catalogue that fits on a Playstation 5 Pro GPU is Nemotron 3-Nano-30B-A3B at 31.6B parameters, compressed to Q3_K_M. It generates roughly 90.3 tokens per second and needs about 14.4 GB of the card's memory.
How many tokens per second does a Playstation 5 Pro GPU produce?
It depends on the model. On a Playstation 5 Pro GPU the fastest model we track is Gemma 3 QAT 1B at about 190 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 Playstation 5 Pro GPU run a 7B model?
Yes. For example a Playstation 5 Pro GPU runs Multi-Token Prediction 7B at Q8_0, using about 7.9 GB of memory and generating around 28.4 tokens per second.
Can a Playstation 5 Pro GPU run a 13B model?
Yes. For example a Playstation 5 Pro GPU runs DeepSeekMoE-16B at Q6_K, using about 13.7 GB of memory and generating around 96.0 tokens per second.
