Retailers reveal the price of Nvidia’s best new workstation GPU, the RTX 6000

The day after Nvidia released the RTX 4000 series of game cards, it also showed the next generation of workstation cards that are based on the same architecture, Ada. So far, the company has not disclosed how much these would cost.

We have to stress workstation GPUs here these are aimed at professionals and will have hair-raising prices – the RTX 6000 is listed at various US retailers with prices between $7,378 and $8,210, according to data unearthed by video cardz.

The Nvidia RTX 6000 card has 18,176 CUDA cores, 11% more than the RTX 4090’s 16,384 cores. However, it looks like it will run at a lower power – the TDP is only 300W compared to 450W for the game card. Still, the maximum boost clock is limited to the same 2.5 GHz. Another thing to note is that the cooling has switched to a fan-type fan, which is the preferred solution for professional environments (it’s louder, but has a lower chance of overheating).

The big difference between the RTX 6000 and RTX 4090 is the graphics memory. The workstation’s GPU is equipped with 48 GB, double what the game card has. It’s also another type of memory, GDDR6 with ECC (that’s built-in error correction). The memory bus remains 384 bits wide, so the bandwidth is basically the same (21Gbps vs. 20Gbps).

Note that Nvidia no longer uses the Quadro branding for these workstation GPUs. More confusingly, the card that replaces the RTX 6000 (Ada) is called the RTX A6000 (Ampere).
