NVIDIA has just announced a new workstation-focused graphics card — the RTX 6000 Ada. The 48GB powerhouse is the latest model to join the company’s family of high-end, enterprise-grade GPUs designed for demanding content creation. NVIDIA sees the RTX 6000 being used for metaverse projects, thanks to the card’s Ada Lovelace generation AI, massively improved ray tracing and other cutting-edge features.

It’s important to point out that NVIDIA doesn’t view this GPU as something the general public will buy — the predicted $8,000 price will undoubtedly prevent that from happening — but instead is positioning the card as a tool for TV broadcasters, scientists and other professional applications.

“The new workstation GPUs are truly game-changing, providing us with over 300% performance increases — allowing us to improve the quality of video and the value of our products,” says Andrew Cross, CEO of Grass Valley (TV broadcast equipment).

So what do the specs look like in NVIDIA’s new RTX 6000 Ada? For starters, there are over 18,000 CUDA cores, 48GB of GDDR6 memory and a power rating of 450 watts. 568 Tensor cores and 142 RT cores help to triple the video encoding performance, and Nvidia virtual GPU (vGPU) software enables multiple remote users to share resources and workloads.

“The NVIDIA RTX 6000 is ready to power this new era for engineers, designers and scientists to meet the need for demanding content-creation, rendering, AI and simulation workloads required to build worlds in the metaverse,” says Bob Pette, NVIDIA vice president of professional visualization.

The NVIDIA RTX 6000 Ada will be available from December 2022 through global distribution channels and manufacturing partners.

The spectacle involved 1,000 drones working in perfect harmony to project AC Milan’s iconic imagery against the city’s night sky. Highlights included the UAVs synchronizing to form the club’s iconic crest, the signature red and black jersey, and a special emblem marking its 125th year.
