Hahahaha. Can’t believe people think it’s actually worth the price for video cards. Have fun paying through the nose Suckers

Nvidia's workstation cards (formerly known as Quadro) have always been expensive AFAIK. If companies keep buying them I can only assume the cards pay for themselves through increased productivity, at least for certain professional workloads.

Edit: Or the certified pro drivers are a requirement for their work, and they presumably factor in the cost of the pro graphics cards when billing clients.

Dumb Name.
The RTX 6000 was a Turing card, not that old.
The Ampere card was the RTX A6000
And they already announced the L40 which is usually the DataCenter cousin to the top "Quadro".
So why not just call this the RTX L4000?

People buying these cards in particular aren't using them for gaming, they are using them for rendering movies or simulating black holes or rapid AI training. At that point, the options are to rent space on a bigger computer, which is also expensive and a hassle, or get one or a few of these cards, which might be cheaper over the long haul and offers a lot more flexibility. It's not stupid, it's practical.

Regardless of price, function, or uses, I find that's a badass looking card. I'd love to have one of these inside my PC.

It's not for gaming. You're paying a CFD engineer $150,000 a year to make flow geometry decisions on a $2 million product design. If you can make him 10% more productive by cutting down his render times, you've made back the price of the card in 3 months. Half that if he hot-desks.

I admit, I will probably pay through the nose for one of these, but I won't pay a scalper for one.
