Nvidia's 72GB RTX PRO 5000 for Desktop AI Is Now Available

The 72GB option is built to let teams run larger models locally for lower latency, greater privacy, reduced cost.

Overview

  • The 72GB Blackwell-based RTX PRO 5000 is generally available through Ingram Micro, Leadtek, Unisplendour and xFusion, with broader system‑builder rollout expected early next year and pricing yet to be announced.
  • New memory configuration delivers 72GB of GDDR7, a 50% increase over the 48GB model, achieved via 24 GDDR7 sites on a 384‑bit interface.
  • Nvidia cites 2,142 TOPS of AI performance from the Blackwell architecture to address memory and throughput bottlenecks in agentic and generative AI workflows.
  • Company-reported benchmarks indicate about 3.5x image generation and 2x text generation versus prior‑generation hardware, plus up to 4.7x faster rendering in tools such as Arnold, V‑Ray, Blender, D5 Render and Redshift.
  • Early adopters include InfinitForm for generative design and simulation and Versatile Media for high‑resolution real‑time virtual production, leveraging the larger VRAM footprint.
