PNY RTX A2000 12GB GDDR6 workstation
A 70W TDP and low-profile, dual-slot design allows this 12GB Ampere workstation card to fit into compact systems without external power connectors. Its 12GB of GDDR6 memory with ECC support provides data integrity for mission-critical applications, a feature typically absent in this segment. This GPU is best for CAD designers and 3D modelers needing certified drivers and reliable performance in small form factor workstations.
