What the RTX PRO 5000 Blackwell 72GB can run on your own machine, and how fast.
Largest model it can run (8K context)
- Q4 (the usual choice, near-original quality)
- ~104B
- Q8 (closer to original, half the model size)
- ~61B
- FP16 (unquantised, for training and research)
- ~32B
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.
Speed & value
- Speed, 8B model at Q4
- 151-182 tok/s
- Memory bandwidth
- 1344 GB/s
- Price per GB of VRAM
- $133.33
Generation speed tracks memory bandwidth, because every word produced reads the whole model from memory. Shown as a range.
Models that fit, at Q4
| Model | Size | Memory needed | Est. speed |
|---|---|---|---|
| Llama3.2 Vision 90B | 88.6B | 57.8GB | 14-16 tok/s |
| Qwen3 Coder Next Latest | 79.7B | 54.4GB | 14-17 tok/s |
| Qwen2 Math 72B | 72.7B | 43.9GB | 18-22 tok/s |
Popular models small enough for this card at Q4, one per family. Speed is left blank for mixture-of-experts models, where a bandwidth estimate is not reliable enough to publish.
