NVIDIA has [confirmed](https://nvidianews.nvidia.com/news/nvidia-blackwell-rtx-pro-workstations-servers-agentic-ai) the launch of the RTX Pro Blackwell series – a revolutionary generation of workstation and server GPUs. Designed to meet the needs of professional designers, data scientists, developers, and content creators, the lineup features a cutting-edge **RTX Pro 6000 Blackwell** GPU for workstations, plus other desktop and laptop variants and a data center version.

After early signs of the card [appeared in shipping logs](https://vast.ai/article/nvidia-rtx-pro-6000-x-rumors-blackwell-gpu-with-96gb-vram-spotted-in-shipping-log) a couple of months ago, we now have full details straight from the source – and this GPU is no minor upgrade. Built on NVIDIA's Blackwell architecture and featuring an incredible **96GB of GDDR7 memory** on a **512-bit bus**, the RTX Pro 6000 is set to redefine what's possible on a single professional workstation.

Here's what we now know about the RTX Pro 6000 Blackwell GPU.

### NVIDIA RTX Pro 6000: Specs That Mean Business

At the heart of the RTX Pro 6000 is the **GB202 die**, aligning with previous high-end Blackwell GPUs, like the RTX 5090\. But while the RTX 5090 is geared toward gamers and other enthusiasts, the RTX Pro 6000 goes all in for professional use.

We've certainly seen professional-grade GPUs with massive VRAM configurations before – there's the RTX 6000 Ada with 48GB of memory, for instance. However, the RTX Pro 6000 offers **double that amount**, with the faster speeds and efficiency of GDDR7 ECC memory. This makes it one of the most powerful workstation GPUs ever released.

And that's not all. On top of **24,064 CUDA cores** and **1,792 GB/s of memory bandwidth**, here's what else you get with this beast of a machine:

- **Streaming multiprocessors** with new neural shaders, delivering up to **1.5X** faster throughput for AI-augmented graphics workflows.
- **Fourth-gen RT cores** offering up to **2X** faster ray tracing performance for photorealism and complex 3D environments, with optimizations for **RTX Mega Geometry**.
- **Fifth-gen Tensor cores** capable of **4,000 AI TOPS**, supporting **FP4** precision and **DLSS 4 Multi Frame Generation** for cutting-edge AI graphics and accelerated model prototyping.
- **Ninth-gen NVENC** **& sixth-gen NVDEC**, improving encoding and decoding speed and quality for pro video work.
- **PCIe Gen 5 interface**, doubling bandwidth for faster CPU-GPU data transfer and smoother performance on heavy data workloads.
- **DisplayPort 2.1** support for ultra-high refresh rates – up to **4K at 480Hz** and **8K at 165Hz** – enabling multi-monitor setups with high color accuracy.
- **Multi-Instance GPU (MIG)**, allowing secure partitioning into up to **four GPU instances** for better workload isolation and resource allocation.

Not surprisingly, the RTX Pro 6000 does require a substantial **600 watts** of power, albeit only slightly more than the 575 watts of the RTX 5090\. But with that power comes the performance needed for agentic AI, immersive XR, large-scale simulation, and autonomous systems development – workloads where speed, memory, and throughput are non-negotiable.

So the only question that remains is: when can you get your hands on one?

### Availability and Rollout Timeline

The RTX Pro 6000 Workstation Edition is [expected](https://nvidianews.nvidia.com/news/nvidia-blackwell-rtx-pro-workstations-servers-agentic-ai) to **start shipping in May 2025** from manufacturers like BOXX, Dell, HP, Lambda, and Lenovo.

The server version of the RTX Pro 6000 is also on the way, with systems from Cisco, Dell, HP, Lenovo, and Supermicro expected to launch "soon," according to NVIDIA. Laptop variants, featuring **24GB of VRAM**, are expected to ship later in the year, from Dell, HP, Lenovo, and Razer.

NVIDIA hasn't announced official pricing yet, but estimates place the RTX Pro 6000 around $8500 – quite the investment. Fortunately, for those who need top-tier professional-grade GPU performance without the upfront cost, there are more accessible options.

### Access GPU Power Without the Overhead
