Nvidia Rolls Out Monster Workstation Graphics Card with 84 GB of Memory
Nvidia has rolled out a new professional graphics card, the RTX Pro 5500 workstation edition, which boasts an unusually generous pool of onboard memory for its class.
The card is built on Blackwell architecture and ships with a full 84 GB of GDDR7 memory, attached to a GB202 processor carrying 21,760 CUDA cores, the same count found on the GeForce RTX 5090.
To achieve this enormous memory capacity, Nvidia mounted 14 GDDR7 modules on the front of the board next to the processor and another 14 modules on the rear, creating a double-sided arrangement often described as a sandwich configuration.
The resulting 416-bit interface yields about 1,398 GB/s of aggregate bandwidth. Buyers can also split the card through multi-instance partitioning, choosing either one full 84 GB block or two separate 42 GB segments instead.
