What LLMs fit on an NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Server?
Which of 22 open LLMs fit one RTX PRO 6000 Server, and how many it takes for the rest, at FP16, FP8 and 4-bit.
Short answer
One NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Server (96 GB) runs 17 of the 22 open LLMs sized here at 4-bit, 15 at FP8 and 11 at FP16, for one user at an 8K context. At FP8: every model except Llama 3.1 405B, Llama 4 Scout, Llama 4 Maverick, Qwen3-235B-A22B, DeepSeek-V3 / R1, gpt-oss-120b and GLM-5.3. The largest that fits one GPU is gpt-oss-120b (116.8B parameters), at 4-bit. Within one 8-GPU server, tensor parallelism runs every model except GLM-5.3 at FP8. Llama 3.3 70B takes 2 GPUs (tensor parallel 2) at FP16 and 1 GPU at FP8.
Updated . One user, 8K context, KV cache at FP16, plus 10% headroom for activations and the runtime.

Counts use a tensor-parallel size (TP) that divides the model's attention heads, within one 8-GPU server. Below each count is the memory needed: (weights + KV cache) ÷ 0.9. Capacity only: speed depends on memory bandwidth and the serving stack.
Memory is step one. Throughput, latency, power and the network decide the real build.

Questions about the RTX PRO 6000 Server
What LLMs can run on an NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Server?
For one user at an 8K context, these fit one RTX PRO 6000 Server. At 4-bit: every model except Llama 3.1 405B, Llama 4 Maverick, Qwen3-235B-A22B, DeepSeek-V3 / R1 and GLM-5.3. At FP8: every model except Llama 3.1 405B, Llama 4 Scout, Llama 4 Maverick, Qwen3-235B-A22B, DeepSeek-V3 / R1, gpt-oss-120b and GLM-5.3. At FP16/BF16: Llama 3.1 8B, Qwen3 8B, Qwen3 14B, Phi-4 14B, gpt-oss-20b, LFM2.5-24B-A2B, Mistral Small 3.2 24B, Gemma 3 27B, Qwen3-30B-A3B, Qwen3 32B and Qwen2.5 32B.
What is the largest LLM an RTX PRO 6000 Server can run?
Of the models sized here, for one user at an 8K context: at 4-bit, gpt-oss-120b (116.8B parameters, 72 GB); at FP8, Kolibri-1 (78.1B parameters, 87 GB); at FP16, Qwen3 32B (32.8B parameters, 75 GB). Mixture-of-experts models count every expert, because all of them must be in memory.
How many NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Server GPUs does Llama 3.3 70B need?
For one user at an 8K context it needs 160 GB at FP16/BF16, 81 GB at FP8 and 46 GB at 4-bit: 2 GPUs (tensor parallel 2) at FP16 and 1 GPU at FP8 or 4-bit.
Can an NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Server run DeepSeek-V3 / R1?
Not on one GPU: with all 671B parameters resident it needs 746 GB at FP8 and 411 GB at 4-bit for one user at an 8K context. That is 8 GPUs (tensor parallel 8) at FP8 or 4-bit.
