NVIDIA’s RTX Pro 6000 Blackwell: A High-Powered GPU with a High-End Price Tag

Powerful and Expensive: RTX Pro 6000 Graphics Card Listed for $8,565 in an American Store

The new RTX Pro Blackwell family of graphics cards has been introduced to the market with highly powerful specifications and a wide range of prices.

According to Videocardz, NVIDIA recently introduced its new and powerful RTX Pro Blackwell graphics processors, and now these products have appeared in listings on the American retailer website, Connections.

The mentioned store has also listed other yet-to-be-announced Blackwell series graphics cards, such as the RTX Pro 2000 and RTX Pro 4000 SFF Blackwell, along with their estimated prices. These prices are not final and may change soon.

The RTX Pro Blackwell family is the workstation counterpart to NVIDIA’s Blackwell series graphics cards, targeting professional applications and server markets. By utilizing 24GB modules (3GB per chip) of GDDR7 memory, NVIDIA has managed to increase the VRAM capacity by 50% compared to GeForce RTX 50 desktop cards. The flagship model of this lineup is the RTX Pro 6000 Blackwell, featuring 96GB of memory (48GB per side) in Clamshell mode.

Connections has published a price list for these models, though sales have not yet started. The NVIDIA RTX Pro 6000 graphics card sees a 26% price increase compared to the RTX 6000 Ada, now listed at $8,565 (or $8,435 for bulk purchases). This GPU is available in Workstation, Workstation Max-Q, and Server editions. The Max-Q version features a 300W TDP, while the server variant uses a passive cooling solution.

Next in line is the RTX Pro 5000 Blackwell, priced at $4,569, which may be up to 15% more expensive than the RTX 5000 Ada, depending on the retailer. NVIDIA has built this card with 48GB of memory and the GB202 processor. Following that is the RTX Pro 4500 Blackwell, which comes with 32GB of memory, the GB203 processor, and a price tag of $2,623.

The RTX Pro 4000 Blackwell features a compact design with a single-slot form factor (unlike the dual-slot design of other models), making it a suitable option for small form factor (SFF) systems. However, NVIDIA has not explicitly used the SFF branding. This GPU is available in both SFF and non-SFF variants, priced at $1,546, which is nearly the same as the RTX 4000 Ada.

At the lowest tier, we have the RTX Pro 2000 Blackwell, with an unofficial price of $700. Its expected specifications include 24GB of GDDR7 memory and a 128-bit memory bus.
