Qwen2.5-3B on the NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell

QuantFits?Max contextSpeedBeyond context
FP16 yes 1230k 211.7-252.3 t/s ~4.7-5.6 (slow)
Q8 yes 1278k 423.4-504.5 t/s ~9.4-11.3 (slow)
Q4 yes 1298k 756-901 t/s ~16.9-20.1 (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 Qwen2.5-3B?โ–ถ

Yes. At Q4 it generates ~756-901 tok/s and fits up to 1298k context; beyond that it spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and slows to ~16.9-20.1 tok/s.

How much context fits?โ–ถ

At Q4, up to about 1298k tokens stay in fast memory; longer context spills to system RAM offload (depends on your system RAM) and throughput collapses.
