Sourcing and disambiguation notes

Power-capped sibling of the Workstation Edition above -- same silicon, memory and capacity, TDP capped to 300W (NVIDIA states ~88% of the full card's AI throughput) for constrained-airflow multi-GPU builds. Shortage-pricing, ABOVE THE $15K SANITY THRESHOLD: gpupoet.com's tracked average of the three lowest-priced daily listings, against an $8,565-10,999 MSRP. Independently corroborated by a second source (Thunder Compute, 'last reviewed Aug 21, 2026') showing NVIDIA-marketplace-level pricing near $13k-16k for the RTX PRO 6000 family amid a 2026 shortage -- not a one-off scraping error, but genuinely volatile; same-day listings varied by thousands. No used/secondary-market figure found. Canadian price (2026-08, pre-tax): CA$23,399.00 for the PNY RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Max-Q Edition, against the prior US $15,418 a 1.52x ratio, a normal band -- now a 1.42x ratio against the current $16,528. 2026-09 update: a price-refresh panel re-read the July page and proposed $10,999 -- verified directly against the page and rejected: that figure is the card's static 2025 launch MSRP, explicitly labelled as such on the page, not a tracked price; every dated figure on the page (June $15,282, July $15,418, current live snapshot $21,789) sits far above MSRP and trending upward, the opposite direction from the panel's proposed value. Replaced instead with the page's own August 2026 dated section (same lowest-average-of-three methodology): $16,528, range $14,299-$20,009.

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.

Speed over time

What it can run

Fit is arithmetic, not a measurement — how it is computed. Against 96 GB; models that fit are listed largest first.
