Pick another GPU to open a side-by-side comparison.
10,832
Very fast — handles complex scenes and production renders with ease.
48 GB
Plenty of room for large scenes, dense geometry, and 4K–8K textures.
14,080
High core count for strong parallel rendering throughput.
Ada Lovelace
Current-generation design with efficient ray tracing and strong Cycles throughput.
864 GB/s
Strong bandwidth for most Blender rendering scenarios.
2460 MHz
Standard clock speed for modern GPUs.
OptiX, CUDA
OptiX is typically the fastest option; CUDA provides a reliable fallback.
285 W
Moderate power needs — standard workstation PSU and cooling should be fine.
