The official price is $ 4650, but the real price is almost $ 1000 more
Nvidia has finally launched the RTX A6000, the most powerful video card based on the Ampere GPU. Its single-precision performance is 38.7 TFLOPS – 3.1 TFLOPS more than the GeForce RTX 3090. This 3D accelerator is built on the full-featured GA102 GPU with 10,752 CUDA cores. The memory capacity is 48 GB, but this is GDDR6, not GDDR6X. Therefore, in terms of memory bandwidth, the RTX A6000 is even inferior to the RTX 3090 – 768 GB / s versus 936 GB / s.
Three times more expensive than GeForce RTX 3090. RTX A6000 with 10752 CUDA cores and 48 GB of memory went on sale
The RTX A6000 has four DisplayPort 1.4 ports and does not have an HDMI 2.1 connector. The cooling system uses only one active element – the centrifugal type. The presence of NVLink allows you to combine two video cards.
And now the most interesting thing is the price. Surprisingly, the RTX A6000 is even cheaper than its predecessor, the Quadro RTX 6000, which is based on the Turing TU102 GPU and provides lower performance. If for the Quadro RTX 6000 they ask for $ 6,300, then the cost of the RTX A6000 is $ 4,650.

True, the official price may not coincide with the real one. Thus, PNY Technologies NVIDIA RTX A6000 with a price of $ 5500 is already presented in the catalog of the American retailer B&H. Sales are promised within 2-4 weeks.
