Can the NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell run Pythia-160m?

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

Pythia-160m on the NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 1320k 4088-4872 t/s ~91.3-108.8 (slow)
Q8 yes 1322k 8176-9744 t/s ~182.5-217.5 (slow)
Q4 yes 1323k 14600-17400 t/s ~325.9-388.4 (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 PRO 6000 Blackwell run Pythia-160m?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~14600-17400 tok/s and fits up to 1323k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~325.9-388.4 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 1323k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
