Features

Powered by NVIDIA Blackwell Architecture

Fifth-Generation Tensor Cores

Fifth-generation Tensor Cores deliver up to 3x the performance of the previous generation and add support for FP4 precision and DLSS 4 Multi Frame Generation technology. Accelerate agentic and generative AI applications, and drive enhanced content creation and graphics.

Fourth-Generation RT Cores

Fourth-generation RT Cores deliver up to 2x the performance of the previous generation, accelerating rendering for M&E content creation, AECO design, and manufacturing prototyping. Create photoreal, physically accurate scenes and immersive 3D designs with neural graphics-based technologies, such as RTX Mega Geometry, enabling up to 100x more ray-traced triangles.

NVIDIA CUDA Cores

NVIDIA Blackwell is the most powerful professional RTX GPU ever created, featuring the latest SM and NVIDIA CUDA™ core technology. The SM features increased processing throughput and new neural shaders that integrate neural networks inside of programmable shaders to drive the next decade of AI-augmented graphics innovations.

84 GB of GPU Memory

GDDR7 memory significantly boosts bandwidth and capacity, empowering your applications to run faster and work with larger, more complex datasets. With 84 GB of GPU memory, tackle massive 3D and AI projects, explore large-scale VR environments, and drive larger multi-app workflows.

Ninth-Generation NVENC

Ninth-generation NVIDIA NVENC engines significantly accelerate video encoding speed and improve quality for professional video applications. They add new support for 4:2:2 H.264 and HEVC encoding, and improve HEVC and AV1 encoding quality.

Sixth-Generation NVDEC

Sixth-generation NVIDIA NVDEC engines provide up to double H.264 decoding throughput and offer support for 4:2:2 H.264 and HEVC decode. Professionals can benefit from high-quality video playback, accelerate video data ingestion, and use advanced AI-powered video editing features.

Multi-Instance GPU

Multi-Instance GPU (MIG) expands the performance and value of RTX PRO 5500, enabling the creation of up to two fully isolated instances. Each MIG instance has its own high-bandwidth memory, cache, and compute cores, along with guaranteed quality of service (QoS)—extending the reach of accelerated computing resources to every user.

PCIe Gen 5

Support for PCI Express Gen 5 provides double the bandwidth of PCIe Gen 4, improving data transfer speeds from CPU memory and unlocking faster performance for data-intensive tasks like AI, data science, and 3D modeling.

DisplayPort 2.1

With DisplayPort 2.1 professionals can achieve unparalleled visual clarity and performance, driving high-resolution displays at up to 8K at 240 Hz and 16K at 60 Hz. Increased bandwidth enables seamless multi-monitor setups, ideal for multitasking and collaboration, while HDR and higher color depth support ensure superior color accuracy for precision work, such as video editing, 3D design, and live broadcasting.

Frequently Asked Questions

The NVIDIA RTX PRO 5500 Blackwell Workstation Edition is a professional desktop GPU built on the NVIDIA Blackwell architecture with 84 GB of GDDR7 memory. It accelerates agentic AI, physical AI, simulation, and graphics workloads, and is designed for rack-mounted workstation deployment across the enterprise.

The RTX PRO 5500 Blackwell targets multi-workload acceleration: agentic AI, generative AI and LLM inference, physical AI and simulation, AI-powered rendering, scientific computing and data analytics, and video production. A single card serves teams needing workstation power for both AI and graphics.

The RTX PRO 5500 Blackwell is built for rack-mounted workstation deployment, with a choice of air- or liquid-cooled thermal solutions. IT teams can centralize GPUs into managed racks, share them across users, and scale capacity as demand grows—delivering workstation performance to professionals without individual desk-side hardware.

The RTX PRO 5500 Blackwell features 84 GB of GDDR7 memory with error-correcting code (ECC). The large GPU memory enables professionals to work with larger, more complex datasets—running large AI models, simulations, and detailed 3D scenes without splitting work across systems.

MIG partitions a single RTX PRO 5500 into fully isolated instances—one instance with up to 84 GB, or two instances with up to 42 GB each. Every instance has dedicated memory, cache, and compute cores plus guaranteed quality of service. In rack-mounted deployments, that means more users get reliable accelerated computing from the same hardware.

The RTX PRO 5500 Blackwell offers a choice of air-cooled or liquid-cooled thermal solutions for rack-mounted workstation deployment.

Yes. The RTX PRO 5500 Blackwell powers LLM inference, AI agents, generative AI, and computer vision from the desktop. 84 GB of GDDR7 memory holds larger models, longer context windows, and multiple models at once—so agentic pipelines run without offloading. Fifth-gen Tensor Cores add FP4 precision and deliver up to 3X the performance of the previous generation for multimodal agentic and generative AI. Learn more.

Fifth-gen Tensor Cores, fourth-gen RT Cores, and 84 GB of GDDR7 memory deliver the throughput physical AI demands—running high-fidelity simulation, generating synthetic training data, and developing and testing robotics workflows before anything is built in the real world.

The RTX PRO 5500 Blackwell is designed for professionals in media and entertainment, architecture and engineering (AEC), manufacturing, engineering, higher education, financial services, geoscience, and healthcare—wwherever AI, simulation, rendering, scientific computing, and data analytics demand workstation-class performance at scale.
