Recent shipping manifests suggest that NVIDIA works on a graphics card with 96 GB of GDDR7 memory. Documents reveal a product utilizing a 512-bit memory bus and a clamshell (memory on both PCB sides) design that combines two 3 GB modules per memory controller. This setup effectively doubles the memory capacity of existing workstation-oriented cards. The product is believed to use the GB202 chip, the only Blackwell desktop GPU with a 512-bit interface. The documents refer to a board labeled PG153, a designation not seen in any of NVIDIA's existing consumer GPUs. This finding points toward a professional or workstation model rather than a gaming product. There is a possibility that it could be part of the RTX 6000 Blackwell or RTX 8000 Blackwell series.
NVIDIA's current top workstation card, the RTX 6000 "Ada," features 48 GB of memory. A move to 96 GB would be a substantial jump, enabling more complex workloads for content creation, data analysis, and AI. This GPU could carry a significantly higher power target than current workstation models. However, professional GPUs often maintain lower clock speeds to keep power consumption within limits that accommodate more stable operation in professional environments. There is no confirmed information regarding the card's official name or final specifications, such as core count or actual clock frequencies. NVIDIA's workstation GPUs have historically provided a higher core count than their gaming counterparts. If the rumored 96 GB GPU follows this pattern, it may surpass even the potential GeForce RTX 5090, which comes with 32 GB of GDDR7. NVIDIA is expected to hold its annual GPU Technology Conference in March. This event is viewed as a likely venue for official announcements. Until then, these details remain unverified.
