Nvidia has sharply raised the price of its RTX Pro 6000 Blackwell graphics card to $13,250 — a 55% increase over its original MSRP in the span of roughly a year, according to Tom's Hardware. Partner-sold versions of the card start at a somewhat lower $11,359.99, but even those prices represent a significant jump from where the card launched.

The RTX Pro 6000 Blackwell packs 96 GB of memory, making it one of the most capable workstation GPUs on the market, aimed squarely at professionals in fields like 3D rendering, AI development, and scientific computing. These are not gaming cards — they are tools for businesses and power users who depend on massive on-card memory to handle enormous datasets and complex models.

The move comes as demand for high-end AI-capable hardware remains intense across industries. Wccftech noted the card is now over 50% more expensive, framing the increase as part of a broader trend of premium GPU pricing climbing well beyond original launch figures.

Nvidia has not publicly explained the reasoning behind the price hike, but the timing aligns with sustained enterprise and AI-sector appetite for powerful GPU hardware, which has given chipmakers and their partners leverage to push prices upward.

For professionals and businesses that depend on cards like this, the increase means that already eye-watering workstation budgets are about to get significantly heavier.
