NVIDIA RTX 6000 Ada Generation

NVIDIA Ada Lovelace Architecture

NVIDIA RTX™ 6000 Ada Generation is the most powerful workstation GPU offering high-performance, real-time ray tracing, AI-accelerated compute, and professional graphics rendering. Building upon the major SM enhancements from the Ada Lovelace GPU, the NVIDIA Ada Lovelace architecture provides more cores, higher clocks, and a larger L2 cache for more performance to enhance ray tracing operations, tensor matrix operations, and frame rates with DLSS 3.0.

NVIDIA CUDA Cores

The NVIDIA Ada Lovelace architecture-based CUDA Cores offer more than 2X the single-precision floating point (FP32) throughput compared to the previous generation, providing significant performance improvements for graphics workflows such as 3D model development and compute for workloads such as desktop simulation for computer-aided engineering (CAE). The RTX 6000 enables two FP32 primary data paths, doubling the peak FP32 operations.

Third-Generation RT Cores

Incorporating 3rd generation ray tracing engines, NVIDIA Ada Lovelace architecture-based GPUs provide incredible ray-traced rendering performance. A single RTX 6000 board can render complex professional models with physically accurate shadows, reflections, and refractions to empower users with instant insight. Working in concert with applications leveraging APIs such as NVIDIA OptiX, Microsoft DXR, and Vulkan ray tracing, systems based on the RTX 6000 will power truly interactive design workflows to provide immediate feedback for unprecedented levels of productivity. The RTX 6000 features up to 2X faster ray-triangle intersection throughput compared to the previous generation.

Fourth-Generation Tensor Cores

Specialized for deep learning matrix multiply and accumulate math operations at the heart of neural network training and inferencing functions, the RTX 6000 includes enhanced Tensor Cores that accelerate more data types and still support the Fine-Grained Structured Sparsity feature that delivers more than 2X throughput for tensor matrix operations compared to the previous generation. New Tensor Cores will accelerate new FP8 precision modes. Independent floating-point and integer data paths allow more efficient execution of workloads using a mix of computation and addressing calculations.

Higher Speed GDDR6 Memory

Built with 48GB GDDR6 memory delivering up to 25% greater throughput for ray tracing, rendering, and AI workloads than the previous generation. The RTX 6000 provides the industry’s largest graphics memory footprint to address the largest datasets and models in latency-sensitive professional applications.

PCIe Gen 4

The RTX 6000 supports PCI Express Gen 4, which provides double the bandwidth of PCIe Gen 3, improving data-transfer speeds from CPU memory for data-intensive tasks like AI and data science.

Error Correcting Code (ECC) on Graphics Memory

Meet strict data integrity requirements for mission-critical applications with uncompromised computing accuracy and reliability for workstations.

5th Generation NVDEC Engine

NVDEC is well suited for transcoding and video playback applications for real-time decoding. The following video codecs are supported for hardware-accelerated decoding: MPEG-2, VC-1, H.264 (AVCHD), H.265 (HEVC), VP8, VP9, and AV1 video formats. Video encoding at 8K/60 will be achievable for professional video editing.

8th Generation NVENC Engine

NVENC can take on the most demanding 4K or 8K video encoding tasks to free up the graphics engine and the CPU for other operations. The RTX 6000 provides better encoding quality than software-based x264 encoders. The RTX 6000 incorporates AV1 video encoding which is 40% more efficient than H.264 encoding for 4K HDR video. AV1 will provide better quality at the same bitrate bandwidth.

Graphics Preemption

Pixel-level preemption provides more granular control to better support time-sensitive tasks such as VR motion tracking.

Compute Preemption

Preemption at the instruction level provides finer-grain control over compute tasks to prevent long-running applications from either monopolizing system resources or timing out.

NVIDIA Virtual GPU Software

Support for NVIDIA virtual GPU (vGPU) software allows a personal workstation to be repurposed into multiple high-performance virtual workstation instances enabling remote users, to share resources to drive high-end design, AI, and compute workloads.
