NVIDIA RTX 5880 Ada Generation, AI & Machine Learning Benchmarks & Specs

48GB · AI Score 16.3/100 · anchored estimate vs 51 measured cards

16.3 AI Score Includes estimates

We have not run NVIDIA RTX 5880 Ada Generation on our bench. These figures are anchored estimates, interpolated per workload against the 51 GPUs we did measure. On Llama 3.1 8B (Q4_K_M) NVIDIA RTX 5880 Ada Generation should deliver about 118.3 tokens/sec. Stepping up to Qwen3 32B it should hold roughly 28.2 tok/s. The full Llama 3.3 70B still runs, at about 13.5 tok/s. For image generation, SDXL should run near 6.92 it/s, and FLUX.1-dev at 0.58 it/s. All 12 workloads fit in 48GB. There is no model in our suite this card has to turn down.

How this estimate is derived. This card hasn’t been through our bench yet, so its numbers are anchored estimates, interpolated from the 51 first-party measured cards (LLM: bandwidth Theil-Sen ladder · diffusion/video: tensor-throughput ladder within architecture family · gates: realistic Q4/BF16 VRAM floors). The VRAM “won’t fit” gates are exact, since they’re pure capacity limits. Estimates are replaced with measured data as more silicon goes through the bench. Full methodology →
