Professional video cards NVIDIA RTX A1000 and A400 received a low-profile design in the form of PCI expansion cards

The NVIDIA Ampere graphics architecture, introduced several years ago, has found its way into the RTX A1000 and A400 professional video cards. These entry-level models are based on the GA107 GPU, which is also known to gamers and PC enthusiasts for the GeForce RTX 3050 graphics card.

NVIDIA RTX A1000 and A400 are made in the form factor of low-profile single-slot PCI Express 4.0 x16 expansion cards (but operate in x8 mode). Both graphics cards have a 50-watt TDP and feature four Mini DisplayPort 1.4a interfaces for video output. An active system with a small “turbine” is used for cooling.

The RTX A1000 uses the NVIDIA GA107 GPU with 2304 CUDA cores, 72 Tensor Cores, 18 RT Cores and a 128-bit memory bus. It is also equipped with 8 GB of GDDR6 video memory. The RTX A400 graphics card has a stripped-down version of the GPU with 768 CUDA cores, 24 tensor cores and 6 RT cores, as well as a 64-bit memory bus. Its memory is 4 GB GDDR6.
