Can the NVIDIA RTX 6000 Ada 48GB run Qwen2.5-Coder (1.5B)?

Yes โ€” here's how fast and up to what context, with real measured numbers.

Qwen2.5-Coder (1.5B) on the NVIDIA RTX 6000 Ada 48GB

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 604k 227.5-271.2 t/s ~9.5-11.3 (slow)
Q8 yes 627k 455.1-542.3 t/s ~19-22.6 (slow)
Q4 yes 638k 812.6-968.5 t/s ~33.9-40.4 (slow)

Estimate (memory-bound). Beyond "max context" the KV cache spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and speed drops to the "beyond" figure.

FAQ

Can the NVIDIA RTX 6000 Ada 48GB run Qwen2.5-Coder (1.5B)?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~812.6-968.5 tok/s and fits up to 638k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~33.9-40.4 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 638k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
