Sourcing and disambiguation notes

This card's street price moves faster than any tracker samples it. Recorded here: Tom's Hardware's tracked best price of $4,381 on 2026-08-07 for new, and $3,400 used, against a $3,325-3,590 range across trackers. TechPowerUp and Tom's Hardware put the August US median at $4,699.99, up from $4,299.99 in June; a third tracker shows $6,810.90, roughly 45% above every other source, and is treated as an outlier rather than the market price. Launch MSRP was $1,999, so treat these as roughly twice MSRP and not precise to the dollar. The Canadian figure is the lowest of several in-stock models spanning roughly CA$6,770-9,900.

Measurements

Decode is token generation — the speed you feel while an answer streams. Prefill is prompt processing — the wait before it starts. Why bandwidth predicts decode speed.

What verified, single-source and estimated mean, and the same rows with every filter and sort in the benchmarks explorer.

What it can run

Fit is arithmetic, not a measurement — how it is computed. Against 32 GB; models that fit are listed largest first.
