Advantech SKY-QUAD-6000A-48 NVIDIA RTX 6000 Ada 48GB GDDR6 Workstation GPU with ECC and 4x DisplayPort 1.4a

Many GPU computers in service today run PCIe 4.0, and the largest Ada generation card is often the natural fit for them. The SKY-QUAD-6000A-48 is the NVIDIA RTX 6000 Ada from Advantech, a workstation GPU with 48 GB of GDDR6 and ECC. Advantech lists the RTX Ada family for rendering, AI, graphics and compute, and notes that NVIDIA RTX professional cards are certified with a broad range of professional applications by independent software vendors.

The Ada Lovelace GPU has 18,176 CUDA cores, 568 fourth-generation Tensor Cores and 142 third-generation RT Cores, with single-precision performance rated at 91.1 TFLOPS. Memory runs on a 384-bit interface at 960 GB/s, which helps with large scenes, simulations and models. Family features include AV1 encode and decode, NVIDIA GPUDirect RDMA support for moving data straight between the network and the GPU, and NVIDIA Mosaic for spanning several displays as one desktop.

The SKY-QUAD-6000A-48 connects over PCI Express 4.0 x16 and has four DisplayPort 1.4a outputs, driving four 4096 x 2160 displays at 120 Hz, four at 5120 x 2880 at 60 Hz or two 7680 x 4320 displays at 60 Hz. It supports DirectX 12, Shader Model 6.6, OpenGL and Vulkan 1.3, with CUDA, DirectCompute and OpenCL. Maximum power is 300 W through one PCIe CEM5 16-pin connector, with a 2x PCIe 8-pin adapter cable included. Active cooling sits on a dual-slot, full-height card.

We supply each card tested, and we fit, configure and burn-in test the SKY-QUAD-6000A-48 in the GPU computers and servers we build, with power and airflow checked in the final chassis. The SKY-QUAD-5000A-32 offers 32 GB at 250 W, and on PCIe 5.0 the SKY-QUAD-6000QB-96 brings 96 GB of GDDR7 at the same 300 W.
