AMD Radeon RX 6800S — Benchmarks & Specs

Short answer: the AMD Radeon RX 6800S generates 33.0 tokens/sec on qwen3:30b under lmstudio in a single cited run, per LocalLLaMA; there are too few comparable runs on file for a median.

Bottom line: how fast is the Radeon RX 6800S?

At 1440p Highest, the Radeon RX 6800S averages 70 fps in Shadow of the Tomb Raider with a 53 fps 1% low, per UltrabookReview. For local LLM inference it generates 33.0 tokens/sec running qwen3:30b under lmstudio, per LocalLLaMA. In 3DMark Fire Strike Graphics it scores 27,416 points, per UltrabookReview.

Every figure above is a row in the tables below, and each row links out to the review or public benchmark database the number was taken from. SpecPicks aggregates published measurements; it does not report first-party benchmark runs.

The Radeon RX 6800S is a graphics card from the RDNA 2 family from AMD. Data on this page draws on 10 synthetic benchmark results, 1 community AI inference report, 47 measured game frame-rate results (top 15 shown), compiled from UltrabookReview, LocalLLaMA, PassMark, 3DMark, Club386, Laptop Mag, Tom's Hardware; each table row links to its source.

AI Inference Performance

Tokens per second under each model + quantization. Higher = faster generation. Bars compare runs across the same model.

Local LLM inference throughput on the Radeon RX 6800S, in generated tokens per second for a single request (one user's generation speed). Higher is better; each row links to the community report or benchmark database it came from.

Synthetic Benchmarks

Higher is better. Bars are scaled within each benchmark family (multi-thread, single-thread, etc.) so you can compare like-with-like at a glance.

Synthetic benchmark scores for the Radeon RX 6800S — higher is better. Each row links to the public database the number was taken from. A benchmark listed more than once is separate published results, shown as published rather than averaged.
