GPU memory (VRAM)

Answer in brief

GPU memory, or VRAM, is the memory on the card itself, which must hold the model and its working data.

GPU memory (VRAM) in practice

The RTX 4090 has 24 GB. The RTX 5090 has 32 GB and the RTX Pro 6000 has 96 GB. System memory is separate and does not add to it.

Memory decides what the card can hold. Speed decides how long the work takes. Check memory first, because a job that does not fit has no price.
