GPT-6 Astra on Pro 20x: less credit per week

ChatGPT

I’ve mainly been using GPT-6 Astra for work over the past two days, and I’ve been really impressed with its performance. However, I’m confused about how my Pro 20x usage limits relate to the credits shown in the usage dashboard.

Based on my previous usage, I’ve typically been able to use roughly 50,000–60,000 credits per week. That’s an estimate from my own experience, not a published allowance.

For September 7–8, the dashboard shows:

  • September 7: 26,883.109 credits
  • September 8: 11,924.730 credits

That’s approximately 38,808 credits in total. Over those two days, I was only able to use that amount, primarily with Astra—even with one usage-limit reset from Tibo.

Could someone help clarify:

  1. How do the displayed credits map to Pro’s included usage limits?
  2. Are there model-specific or shorter-term limits that could explain reaching a limit below my usual weekly credit usage?

btw: i didnt use any fast mode for last 2 days

I may be misunderstanding the dashboard, so I’d appreciate an explanation of how these numbers fit together.

Screenshot attached for reference. Thanks

Can you be more specific about which dashboard you mean?

For a high-level view of Codex usage, the one I usually use is:

Hey liyb.paul I get why the credit numbers can be confusing, especially when they don’t line up with your usual weekly usage.
