At a 90-minute long keynote at Gamescon 2018, NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang revealed a new family of Turing-based Quadro workstation graphics cards. Let’s take a quick look at the new Quadro RTX graphics cards, and how they will offer a quantum leap in professional graphics performance.
The NVIDIA Quadro RTX Models
Built on the new NVIDIA Turing architecture, these are the world’s first ray-tracing graphics cards. They come with not just CUDA cores, but also Tensor cores and RT (Ray Tracing) cores. Three models were announced. Let’s take a look!
NVIDIA Quadro RTX 8000
The NVIDIA Quadro RTX 8000 has 4,608 CUDA cores, 576 Tensor cores and 48 GB of GDDR6 memory. It is a dual-slot card with four DisplayPorts and one VirtualLink port.
NVIDIA Quadro RTX 6000
The NVIDIA Quadro RTX 6000 has 4,608 CUDA cores, 576 Tensor cores and 24 GB of GDDR6 memory. It is a dual-slot card with four DisplayPorts and one VirtualLink port.
NVIDIA Quadro RTX 5000
The NVIDIA Quadro RTX 5000 has 3,072 CUDA cores, 384 Tensor cores and 16 GB of GDDR6 memory. It is a dual-slot card with four DisplayPorts and one VirtualLink port.
