NVIDIA RTX PRO 5000 GPU: Specs, VRAM, Price & Benchmarks (2026)
The NVIDIA RTX PRO 5000 (48GB or 72GB GDDR7 with ECC) launched in 2025. This guide covers its full specs, VRAM, SXM/PCIe differences where they apply, AI performance, and live per-GPU rental pricing on Aquanode.
Short answer on cost: the RTX PRO 5000 rents from $0.918 per GPU per hour on Aquanode.
How much VRAM does the RTX PRO 5000 have?
The RTX PRO 5000 has 48GB or 72GB GDDR7 with ECC, with 1,344 GB/s of peak memory bandwidth.
What fits in 48GB or 72GB GDDR7 with ECC of VRAM
| Model | Precision | Fits? |
|---|---|---|
| Llama 3 8B | FP16 | roughly 16GB. Fits with plenty of headroom. |
| Llama 3.1 70B | INT4 | ~35-40GB. Fits on the 48GB card. |
| Llama 3.1 70B | FP8 | ~70GB. Fits only on the 72GB variant, tightly. |
| Mixtral 8x22B | INT4 | ~70GB. Same: 72GB variant only. |
Approximate, based on published parameter counts and standard bytes-per-parameter rules of thumb (FP16 ≈ 2 bytes/param, INT4 ≈ 0.5-0.6 bytes/param). Real footprint also depends on KV-cache size and framework overhead.
What can the RTX PRO 5000 run?
Popular open models from small to frontier scale, with the memory each needs and how many RTX PRO 5000 cards (48GB or 72GB GDDR7 with ECC each) that takes.
| Model | As published | FP8 | INT4 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Qwen/Qwen3-8B 8.2B | BF16: ~18.3 GB, 1 GPU | FP8: ~9.2 GB, 1 GPU | INT4: ~4.6 GB, 1 GPU |
| Qwen/Qwen2.5-14B-Instruct 14.8B | BF16: ~33 GB, 1 GPU | FP8: ~16.5 GB, 1 GPU | INT4: ~8.3 GB, 1 GPU |
| Qwen/Qwen3-32B 32.8B | BF16: ~73.2 GB, 2 GPUs | FP8: ~36.6 GB, 1 GPU | INT4: ~18.3 GB, 1 GPU |
| Qwen/Qwen-72B 72.3B | BF16: ~162 GB, 4 GPUs | FP8: ~80.8 GB, 2 GPUs | INT4: ~40.4 GB, 1 GPU |
| MiniMaxAI/MiniMax-M2.7 228.7B | FP8: ~256 GB, 6 GPUs | – | INT4: ~128 GB, 3 GPUs |
| deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1 684.5B | FP8: ~765 GB, 16 GPUs | – | INT4: ~383 GB, 8 GPUs |
Estimates: weights at the stated precision plus a flat 20% for KV cache and overhead, at a moderate context length. A dash means the precision is not offered for that model (it is already published at that size). INT4 needs a published quantized checkpoint. Open any model for a per-GPU breakdown, or use the RTX PRO 5000 VRAM calculator.

RTX PRO 5000 AI performance
Blackwell-generation ECC memory at 1,344 GB/s in a 300W dual-slot card. Nearly 40% more bandwidth than an RTX 6000 Ada at the same power and the same 48GB, plus FP8 and FP4 tensor support for the newest quantized formats. The 72GB variant fits noticeably larger models on one card.
- Memory bandwidth: 1,344 GB/s
No NVLink, so multi-card work is PCIe-bound. NVIDIA publishes no dense tensor-TFLOPS figure for this part at all, only a sparsity-based AI TOPS number, so there is no vendor-stated throughput to compare it against a data-center card.
The cheapest RTX PRO 5000 offer right now ($0.918/GPU/hr) is about 18% below the market median of $1.12/GPU/hr.

Each row is the stored daily snapshot of the live index, copied as recorded. A dash means that day stored no figure. The same series is available as JSON and summarised in the monthly GPU price report.
How this price is calculated
All prices on this page are normalized to a per-GPU hourly rate using each offer's authoritative GPU count, so that raw price is divided by the number of GPUs it actually covers; some offers report price as already per-GPU, so those are used as-listed. An offer with a missing, zero, or invalid GPU count is excluded entirely rather than published at a guessed rate.
No offers were excluded from this snapshot for a missing or invalid price. No offers were dropped as price outliers in this snapshot.
Only the cheapest qualifying offer per provider is shown in the table above. This page regenerates at most once per hour.

RTX PRO 5000 FAQs
How much VRAM does the RTX PRO 5000 have?
The RTX PRO 5000 has 48GB or 72GB GDDR7 with ECC, with 1,344 GB/s of peak memory bandwidth.
What is the NVIDIA RTX PRO 5000?
The NVIDIA RTX PRO 5000 is a GPU released in 2025, with 48GB or 72GB GDDR7 with ECC of memory and a 300W power envelope. See the full spec table above for interconnect, form factor and tensor-throughput details.
How much does it cost to rent a RTX PRO 5000?
Live RTX PRO 5000 rental prices currently range from $0.918 to $1.46 per GPU per hour, with a median of $1.12 per GPU per hour.
What's the cheapest RTX PRO 5000 rate?
The lowest current RTX PRO 5000 rate on Aquanode is $0.918 per GPU per hour in Belgium.
What is the RTX PRO 5000 good for?
Blackwell-generation ECC memory at 1,344 GB/s in a 300W dual-slot card. Nearly 40% more bandwidth than an RTX 6000 Ada at the same power and the same 48GB, plus FP8 and FP4 tensor support for the newest quantized formats. The 72GB variant fits noticeably larger models on one card.

Is renting cheaper than buying?
Renting avoids the upfront hardware cost and lets you match spend to actual usage. A rented RTX PRO 5000 at $0.918/hr only costs money while it's running, whereas buying ties up capital in hardware that keeps depreciating whether it's in use or not. Which is cheaper depends on how continuously you'd run it; short or bursty workloads usually favor renting.
How is the RTX PRO 5000 price calculated?
All prices are normalized to a per-GPU hourly rate using each offer's authoritative GPU count, which the raw price is divided by; some offers report price as already per-GPU. Offers whose price can't be safely normalized, or whose rate is an extreme outlier against the rest of the market, are excluded.
