NVIDIA's RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell workstation GPU has seen its price surge past $10,000 at some US retailers, driven by high demand for AI hardware. The card originally launched with a suggested price around $8,000.
Retail prices vary from $9,349 to $11,500
The RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell packs 24,064 CUDA cores, 752 Tensor cores, and 188 RT cores. It delivers up to 125 TFLOPs of FP32 performance and 4,000 AI TOPS. The card features 96 GB of GDDR7 ECC memory on a 512-bit bus, with 28 Gbps speed and 1.8 TB/s bandwidth. Its total board power is 600W, using a single 12V-2×6 16-pin power connector. Cooling is handled by a dual-fan, dual-slot design.
Pricing varies widely across US retailers. NVIDIA's own store lists the card at $8,900 but it is out of stock. Microcenter offers it at $9,999 after a $1,000 discount. Amazon has stock at $9,449. B&H lists the highest price at $11,500. Newegg offers the lowest at $9,349, bundled with a free Gigabyte Brix Mini PC.
For context, the consumer GeForce RTX 5090 starts at around $4,000, with third-party sellers pricing it above $6,000. The RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell is positioned as the fastest professional GPU for AI workloads, with 10.5% more cores than the RTX 5090, according to WCCFTech.
NVIDIA has not confirmed the launch window for the RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell, and availability remains limited at its own store.
