What LLMs can an RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell run?

An RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell (96 GB) runs 48 of the 69 open models tracked here at Q4_K_M with 8K context; the largest is Mistral Medium 3.5 128B (127.7B parameters, 82.7 GB). It reads memory at 1,792 GB/s. 2 more fit at a lower precision. Each fit leaves at least 0.5 GB free on the RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell (why a card does not give a model all its memory).

Too big for one RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell at 8K context

How many RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell cards these need at Q4_K_M with 8K context and 0.5 GB to spare, in one tensor-parallel group; some need more than 8.

Best models for RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell with room for long context

The biggest models that still fit at Q4_K_M with 32,768 tokens of context (or their whole window, if shorter), the memory left over, the longest context the card takes at that precision and the writing speed with that context in the cache, from 1,792 GB/s of bandwidth. gpt-oss-120b is at MXFP4, as published.

How fast the RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell writes as the context fills

Tokens per second at Q4_K_M (gpt-oss-120b at MXFP4) for the biggest models that fit with 32K tokens, with 8K and 32K tokens in the cache and at the longest context the card holds, and at Q8_0 with 8K where that fits. Each token reads the active weights and the whole cache once, so the speed follows the 1,792 GB/s of bandwidth and falls as the cache grows. The ceiling is that bandwidth divided by the bytes read per token, which no runtime reaches; the reply time is for 1,000 new tokens with 32K (or the longest context) in the cache, prompt processing aside. With the same memory, Ryzen AI Max+ 395 (128 GB), 256 GB/s, writes 86% slower by bandwidth; M4 Max Mac (128 GB), 546 GB/s, writes 70% slower by bandwidth; 4× RTX 3090, 3,744 GB/s, writes 109% faster by bandwidth.

Run locally or rent an RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell?

Renting an RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell costs a median of $2.19 an hour on demand, across the providers getdeploying.com tracks (checked ), so every $1,000 of purchase price equals about 457 hours of rent, 19 days around the clock. At that rate Mistral Medium 3.5 128B at Q4_K_M with 32K tokens, the biggest model here that fits with a long context, writes 11–15 tokens/s for one request: about $41–56 per million generated tokens. Electricity and resale value are left out, and no card prices are listed because 2026 street prices vary widely between sellers; compare current ones before you decide.

Serving with vLLM on the RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell

The KV cache pool vLLM builds at its default --gpu-memory-utilization 0.92 and --max-model-len 32768, weights as published, from the vLLM KV cache calculator. The pool is shared by every request; the last column assumes 4,096 tokens each.

gpt-oss-20b 70.4 GB 2,045,825 62.43x 374

How these numbers are worked out

Memory is the weights at each precision plus the KV cache for 8,192 tokens in FP16 and runtime overhead (0.5 GB plus 10%), computed from each model's files on Hugging Face with the LLM VRAM Calculator. Speed is estimated from memory bandwidth and the parameters read per token with the LLM Speed Calculator. Both tools take any other model from Hugging Face.
