The RTX A2000 is a high-end professional graphics card by NVIDIA, launched on August 10th, 2021. Built on the 8 nm process, and based on the GA106 graphics processor, in its GA106-850-A1 variant, the card supports DirectX 12 Ultimate. The GA106 graphics processor is an average sized chip with a die area of 276 mm² and 12,000 million transistors. Unlike the fully unlocked GeForce RTX 3060 3840SP, which uses the same GPU but has all 3840 shaders enabled, NVIDIA has disabled some shading units on the RTX A2000 to reach the product's target shader count. It features 3328 shading units, 104 texture mapping units, and 48 ROPs. Also included are 104 tensor cores which help improve the speed of machine learning applications. The card also has 26 raytracing acceleration cores. NVIDIA has paired 6 GB GDDR6 memory with the RTX A2000, which are connected using a 192-bit memory interface. The GPU is operating at a frequency of 562 MHz, which can be boosted up to 1200 MHz, memory is running at 1500 MHz (12 Gbps effective). Being a dual-slot card, the NVIDIA RTX A2000 does not require any additional power connector, its power draw is rated at 70 W maximum. Display outputs include: 4x mini-DisplayPort 1.4a. RTX A2000 is connected to the rest of the system using a PCI-Express 4.0 x16 interface. The card measures 167 mm in length, 69 mm in width, and features a dual-slot cooling solution. Its price at launch was 449 US Dollars.
