NVIDIA RTX A6000

Cat. no. gpu-rtx-a6000

Curator note

48 GB on one two-slot, 300 W card: two of them hold a quantised 70B model, four give 192 GB. It is the workstation answer to dense multi-GPU builds, and it costs far more than two used RTX 3090s with the same total VRAM. It is Ampere, so it is slower than a 4090 or 5090. Note the power plug: it takes an 8-pin CPU (EPS) cable, not a PCIe 8-pin, so check your PSU has enough EPS outputs for every card.
