Workstation · Ampere architecture

The RTX A6000 is the Ampere workstation flagship: 48 GB GDDR6 with ECC, 10,752 CUDA cores, NVLink bridge support, 300 W. It is the cheapest 48 GB card on the sheet — ideal for 32B-class inference, LoRA training and render jobs that outgrow 24 GB.

Workstation silicon with ECC memory and studio-certified drivers. Renderers (Blender, Octane, Redshift), CAD and simulation get the large VRAM they want without paying datacenter-flagship rates — and per-second billing suits render queues perfectly.

## NVIDIA RTX A6000 specs: VRAM, TFLOPS, bandwidth

- **GPU model**: NVIDIA RTX A6000 · **Architecture**: Ampere (2020)
- **VRAM**: 48 GB GDDR6 · **Memory bandwidth**: 768 GB/s
- **FP16 tensor perf.**: 155 TFLOPS · **FP32 perf.**: 38.7 TFLOPS
- **CUDA cores**: 10,752 · **TDP**: 300 W
- **PowerScore ((RTX 3090 = 100))**: 109 · **PCIe generation**: Gen 4.0
- **Multi-GPU**: 1× – 4× · **Max instance storage**: 8,000 GB NVMe
- **Network up to**: 10,000 Mbps · **CUDA**: 12.4 – 13.0

Bandwidth, CUDA cores, TDP and FP32 are public NVIDIA figures; FP16 tensor is the dense (non-sparsity) number. Machine-level values come from live inventory.

## RTX A6000 price per hour: on-demand, interruptible, reserved

One public rule sets every price on this page: the marketplace median for the RTX A6000 ($0.40/hr, snapshot 2026-09-14) × 0.70, rounded down — so on-demand is $0.281, **30% below market**. Interruptible halves it; a 3-month reservation takes another 35% off.

| Mode | Per GPU-hour | Per day (24 h) | Per month (730 h) | What you get |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| **On-demand** | $0.281 | $6.74 | $205 | Guaranteed capacity, price locked at deploy, stop anytime |
| **Interruptible** | $0.140 | $3.36 | $102 | Flat −50%; may pause under capacity pressure, disk kept, auto-requeue |
| **Reserved (3 months)** | $0.182 | $4.37 | $133 | −35% on on-demand, rate locked for the term, capacity held |

Per GPU: an 4× machine costs exactly 4× — no multi-GPU premium. Estimate a full month with storage and bandwidth in the [GPU cost calculator](https://powergpu.ai/calculator).

## What you can run on a RTX A6000 (48 GB VRAM)

With 48 GB of GDDR6, a single card holds a **~14B-parameter LLM in FP16** or up to **~72B parameters quantized to 4-bit**, with room for KV-cache at practical context lengths. Scale to 4× GPUs on one machine for bigger models or bigger batches — the per-GPU price stays $0.281.

## RTX A6000 vs alternatives: price per TFLOP

| GPU | VRAM | FP16 | On-demand | $ / TFLOP-hr |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| **RTX A6000** (this card) | 48 GB | 155 | $0.281 | $1.81‰ |
| [RTX 4500Ada](https://powergpu.ai/gpu/rtx-4500ada) | 24 GB | 72 | $0.280 | $3.89‰ |
| [RTX PRO 4500](https://powergpu.ai/gpu/rtx-pro-4500) | 24 GB | 200 | $0.273 | $1.37‰ |
| [RTX 5000Ada](https://powergpu.ai/gpu/rtx-5000ada) | 32 GB | 190 | $0.369 | $1.94‰ |
| [RTX PRO 4000](https://powergpu.ai/gpu/rtx-pro-4000) | 20 GB | 150 | $0.183 | $1.22‰ |

‰ = dollars per 1,000 TFLOP-hours of FP16 — a rough value-for-compute yardstick across cards.

## Renting a RTX A6000: frequently asked questions

**How much does it cost to rent an NVIDIA RTX A6000 per hour?**

$0.281 per GPU-hour on-demand — a fixed price set at least 30% below the current market median of $0.40. Interruptible capacity costs $0.140/hr and a 3-month reservation $0.182/hr. Around $205/month if you keep one running non-stop, billed per second.

**What can a RTX A6000 with 48 GB VRAM run?**

In LLM terms, roughly a 14B-parameter model in FP16 or up to ~72B parameters 4-bit quantized on a single card, with context headroom. Multi-GPU instances (up to 4× on current inventory) multiply that; diffusion and rendering workloads fit comfortably at this VRAM class.

**Is the RTX A6000 available to rent right now?**

Yes — 12 GPUs across 5 machines in 5 regions are listed as we render this page. Configurations go from 1× to 4×. Deploy from the console and it is running in about 30 seconds.

**How do I deploy a RTX A6000?**

Create an account (email + password, no card, no KYC), top up in crypto, open the console, filter by RTX A6000, pick a machine and a template such as PyTorch, vLLM or ComfyUI. The same deploy is one command with the CLI: powergpu launch --gpu rtx-a6000 --template pytorch.

**Why is the RTX A6000 cheaper here than on GPU marketplaces?**

We price from the public marketplace median and fix our on-demand rate at least 30% below it, rounded down. The price is re-checked weekly (next check 2026-09-21) and published — no auctions, no per-host roulette, no bidding.
