Speed is modeled, not measured: decode is memory-bandwidth bound, so tokens per second is bytes read per token against achievable bandwidth. Mixture-of-experts models carry a wider band because only the routed experts are read each step, and few have been measured publicly.
Measured on this card
| Workload◍ | Median | Middle 50% | Runs |
|---|---|---|---|
| Prompt processing | 11021.13 tok/s | 4938.37–11679.36 | 11 |
| Text generation | 169.73 tok/s | 159.80–225.90 | 11 |
Aggregated from community-submitted runs, so the spread is wide by nature — it covers different models, resolutions, step counts and settings, not one controlled configuration. Read the middle 50% rather than the median alone. These figures are reproduced with attribution from llama.cpp-discussion-14640.
Questions people ask
- What AI models can a Instinct MI300X run?
- 2104 of 2118 indexed open-weight models fit a Instinct MI300X at 131,072 context with q8_0 KV cache, the largest being GLM-4.6-Derestricted-v3 at Q3_K_M. That covers text, vision-language, image, video and speech models.
- How much usable memory does a Instinct MI300X actually have?
- Its nameplate is 192 GB, but about 178.56 GiB is available to a model once driver and compositor overhead is accounted for.
- Is a Instinct MI300X fast for local AI?
- Its memory bandwidth is 5300 GB/s, and that figure — not teraflops — is what governs token generation speed. Capacity decides what you can run; bandwidth decides how fast it runs.
