Nvidia has released the rtx pro 5000 72gb blackwell gpu into general availability, expanding desktop options for developers, engineers and designers working on demanding agentic and generative artificial intelligence workflows. The new configuration targets memory-hungry tasks such as large language models, multimodal artificial intelligence agents and complex simulation workloads, arriving as demand for blackwell class compute continues to grow. Users can now choose between the 72gb variant and the existing rtx pro 5000 48gb model so artificial intelligence developers can align hardware more closely with different budgets and project needs.
The card is built on the nvidia blackwell architecture, which is designed for high throughput across artificial intelligence, neural rendering and simulation with multi workload scheduling and other architectural updates. The rtx pro 5000 72gb helps address memory bottlenecks in agentic artificial intelligence systems that must keep multiple models, data sources and code formats resident in gpu memory. The gpu offers 2,142 TOPS of AI performance and includes 72GB of ultrafast GDDR7 memory – a 50% increase over the 48GB model – enabling developers to train, fine tune and prototype larger models directly on their workstations. This local capacity is positioned to help teams maintain data privacy, low latency and cost efficiency by serving more artificial intelligence workloads without relying on data center infrastructure.
Nvidia highlights performance gains in both artificial intelligence and graphics focused workflows. In industry standard benchmarks for generative artificial intelligence, the RTX PRO 5000 72GB offers 3.5x the performance of prior-generation NVIDIA hardware for image generation, and 2x the performance of prior-generation hardware for text generation. In creative rendering pipelines using engines like arnold, chaos v ray, blender, d5 render and redshift, the RTX PRO 5000 72GB slashes render times by up to 4.7x, and for computer aided engineering and product design it offers more than 2x graphics performance. Early adopters such as infinitform are using the gpu to accelerate generative artificial intelligence based engineering design for customers including yamaha motor and nasa, while versatile media is applying the 72gb card to virtual production, where its memory capacity supports massive 3d scenes and complex lighting in real time. The rtx pro 5000 72gb blackwell gpu is now shipping through partners including ingram micro, leadtek, unisplendour and xfusion, with broader global system builder availability planned for early next year.
