Key Points

Enthusiasts are evaluating the RTX A5000 Pro（Blackwell）48GB for local LLM use, emphasizing that 48GB VRAM can fit Qwen 27B at Q8 with sufficient context.
The discussion weighs value for fine-tuning and inference against the high price, noting that the next higher tier is substantially more expensive ($9,000 vs $4,500).
A key appeal mentioned is having all required memory in a single GPU rather than splitting workloads across multiple cards (e.g., two 5090s).
The thread also questions whether RTX 6000 models are actually being purchased for around $7K, suggesting uncertainty about real-world pricing.
Overall, the 48GB card is viewed as a practical step up for specific local AI workloads, but cost remains a central concern.

What do people think about this card for an enthusiast? With 48GB. You can fit qwen 27B q8 with context. It's still pricy, I get that. But the 48 GB seems nice. The next step up would be almost double the price. $4500 vs $9000.

I would use this for finetune and inference.

I like the idea of keeping all the ram in one card vs splitting with 2x 5090s

Also - Are people really getting RTX6000s for ~$7K?
