Pick another GPU to open a side-by-side comparison.
5,307
Solid mid-range speed for everyday rendering and moderate scenes.
48 GB
Plenty of room for large scenes, dense geometry, and 4K–8K textures.
10,752
High core count for strong parallel rendering throughput.
Ampere
Previous-generation design — still competitive, especially at higher VRAM tiers.
768 GB/s
Strong bandwidth for most Blender rendering scenarios.
1800 MHz
Lower clock speed — typical of older or workstation-class GPUs.
OptiX, CUDA
OptiX is typically the fastest option; CUDA provides a reliable fallback.
300 W
Moderate power needs — standard workstation PSU and cooling should be fine.
