Local AI performance

What the RTX PRO 5000 Blackwell 48GB can run on your own machine, and how fast.

Largest model it can run (8K context)

Q4 (the usual choice, near-original quality)
~68B
Q8 (closer to original, half the model size)
~40B
FP16 (unquantised, for training and research)
~21B

Parameter counts the card holds with room for an 8K conversation, counting the model weights plus its attention cache. A longer conversation needs more memory, so it lowers these figures.
