Videocardz recently discovered a leaked listing from one of NVIDIA’s AIB partners, Leadtek, featuring an unannounced workstation GPU – the RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell. The publication has obtained several images of the GPU, which looks pretty similar to the RTX 5090 Founders Edition that we’re all pretty familiar with, with a small bit of visual changes.
NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Surfaced

In recent years, NVIDIA’s workstation cards often had to deal with lower power targets compared to their desktop counterparts, due to the limitations of blower fan designs that often limits the TDP at 300 watts. (The reason workstation GPUs still use blower fan designs is to accommodate multi-GPU setups.) This RTX PRO card is quite the opposite: not only it comes with more CUDA cores than the RTX 5090, it also got a slightly higher TDP than the GeForce counterpart.
The specs include 24,064 CUDA cores (which coverts to 188 SMs) – 2,304 more than RTX 5090 – along with 96GB of GDDR7 VRAM on tap. All of that demands full 600 watts of power from what is presumably a 12V-2×6 connector, and the card’s exterior also sees a slight change with more heatsinks exposed at the front (unclear if this is cosmetics since the GPU fan’s airflow can’t reach that spot), while the classic ‘X’ shape in the middle has been modified into two ‘V’ shapes to differentiate from the highly similar GeForce counterpart.

One can assume that the breakthrough in engineering a double flow-through design is what made this generation of workstation card to move away from blower fans, given that the new card will still retain the 2-slot layout, which is extremely slim for a card of this caliber – any third-party equivalent with the more conventional PCB design would’ve used up 4 slots to keep the cards cooled. That said, stacking four of these cards into a motherboard is certainly going to demand ridiculous levels of power draw, and we’re not sure if there are any ATX PSUs powerful enough to actually make this happen.
With NVIDIA GTC right around the corner, expect the card to be officially introduced later this March – there may be more models, but this is the only known model so far (aside from the RTX PRO 6000 X Blackwell that was referenced earlier, but no evidence otherwise).
Pokdepinion: So much power.
