Can I run Llama-3.3-Nemotron-Super-49B-v1 on Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 (32GB)?

Compatibility verdict VRAM threshold engine
Yes, but tight usable speed ~41 tok/s est.

Yes. Llama-3.3-Nemotron-Super-49B-v1 runs on Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 (32GB) at Q4_K_M (~30.6 GB of ~31 GB usable).

Needs ~30.6 GB Device usable ~31 GB

Fits at Q4_K_M (~30.6 GB of ~31 GB usable) but with little headroom. Close other apps; a smaller context frees a few hundred MB.

That figure is at a 4k context and moves about ±15% as context length changes. Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 (32GB) leaves ~0.4 GB of headroom.

Running cost · estimate

Power & economics est.
Power draw
~575 W
Electricity / 1M tokens
~$0.58

At ~$0.15/kWh and the estimated ~41 tok/s, a million generated tokens costs about $0.58 in electricity. TDP is the peak draw, so this is an upper bound. Assumptions.
