Can the NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell run CogVLM-17B?

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

CogVLM-17B on the NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 201k 38.5-45.9 t/s ~0.9-1 (slow)
Q8 yes 266k 77-91.7 t/s ~1.7-2 (slow)
Q4 yes 295k 137.4-163.8 t/s ~3.1-3.7 (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 PRO 6000 Blackwell run CogVLM-17B?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~137.4-163.8 tok/s and fits up to 295k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~3.1-3.7 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 295k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
