Its launch appears to have been driven largely by the silicon and components that Nvidia had at its disposal. The Nvidia RTX A4500 is a cut down version of the RTX A5000.

And some of the inflated prices we have seen online have been quite eye watering.

Since these ‘Ampere’ GPUs launched in Spring 2021 they have been very hard to get hold of. The ongoing global semiconductor shortage has meant supply of the RTX A4000 and RTX A5000 has been patchy to say the least. The gap simply wasn’t that big.īut these are no ordinary times. We didn’t really see a need for a product to sit between the RTX A4000 (16 GB) and RTX A5000 (24 GB). When Nvidia launched the 20 GB Nvidia RTX A4500 professional workstation GPU in November 2021, it took us a bit by surprise. Greg Corke looks at how the RTX A4500 stacks up in real-time viz, GPU rendering and VR workflows To help boost supply of its high-end professional workstation GPUs, Nvidia recently released a derivative of the RTX A5000 with slightly lower specs.
