Understand this story
heise online conducted an efficiency test of the Nvidia RTX Pro 6000 Blackwell, measuring the card's performance loss after reducing TDP. The test covered three power levels: 450 watts, 300 watts and 156 watts; the card has 96 GByte of VRAM and targets AI and workstation scenarios. The test used 450 watts, corresponding to the previous-generation GeForce RTX 4090, 300 watts, corresponding to the long-term power limits of earlier flagship cards, and 156 watts, corresponding to mid-range and lower-end cards such as the GeForce RTX 5060 or Radeon RX 9060 XT, as references. The report does not give the specific performance-loss figures for each level in the public summary; the full test data is available only to heise-Plus subscribers. This test is currently still the latest development, and there are no subsequent factual developments yet.

Efficiency test: How much performance does the RTX Pro 6000 lose after lowering TDP
heise conducts an efficiency test on the Nvidia RTX Pro 6000 Blackwell, measuring its performance loss at three power levels of 450 watts, 300 watts and 156 watts; the card has 96 GByte VRAM and targets AI and workstation scenarios. The test uses 450 watts as a reference corresponding to the previous-generation GeForce RTX 4090, 300 watts to the long-term limit of earlier flagship cards, and 156 watts to mid-to-low-end cards such as the GeForce RTX 5060 or Radeon RX 9060 XT.
