"RTX 6000" alone cannot determine which specific card it is; the full model name and memory capacity (e.g., "RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell, 96GB") must both be confirmed to pin it down as the Blackwell version.
There are at least four NVIDIA professional graphics cards named "RTX 6000" on the market: Quadro RTX 6000 (Turing, 2018, 24GB GDDR6, 672 GB/s), RTX A6000 (Ampere, 2020, 48GB GDDR6, 768 GB/s), RTX 6000 Ada Generation (Ada Lovelace, 2022, 48GB GDDR6, 960 GB/s), and RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell (Blackwell, 2025, 96GB GDDR7, 1,597–1,792 GB/s).
On getdeploying, in one week the on-demand median price for the RTX 6000 Ada was about $1.03 per hour, and for the RTX PRO 6000 about $2.24 per hour.
The RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell has a compute capability of 12.0, the RTX 6000 Ada 8.9, and the RTX A6000 8.6.
Rental listings that only say "RTX 6000" and are priced around one dollar per hour are more likely to be the 48GB RTX 6000 Ada than the 96GB RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell.
NVIDIA's released FP4-Local checkpoint has only been validated on two hardware configurations: two RTX PRO 6000 Blackwells, or two DGX Sparks.
Two RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell cards each have 96GB of VRAM, 192 GB in total, but the 3-bit compressed model still requires 309.3 GiB and cannot be fully loaded into VRAM.
Under 7×24-hour full load, the break-even is approximately 296 days; at 8 hours per day, 5 days per week, approximately 3 years and 5 months; at 4 hours per day, 5 days per week, approximately 6 years and 10 months.
Comparing a purchase price of $16,000 against Sky Forge Compute's rental rate of $2.25/GPU·hour, the break-even point is approximately 7,100 GPU hours.
