The NVIDIA RTX A2000 is an entry-level Ampere architecture professional workstation GPU, announced in August 2021. Its compact low-profile design and accessible pricing bring professional certification and RTX features to the broadest range of enterprise deployments.
The RTX A2000 features 12GB of GDDR6 memory (6GB variant also available) in a low-profile, dual-slot form factor. It includes 3,328 CUDA cores, 104 third-generation Tensor Cores, and 26 second-generation RT cores, providing entry-level professional graphics capability.
The low-profile design fits standard expansion slots including those in compact and small form factor workstations. The 70W TDP requires no external power connector, simplifying deployment and enabling use in systems with limited power headroom.
Third-generation Tensor Cores and second-generation RT cores bring AI and ray tracing to entry-level professional systems. Professional certifications ensure enterprise compatibility. The RTX A2000 is the minimum specification for many ISV applications while providing the foundation for AI-accelerated professional workflows.
