Verdict
NVIDIA Quadro RTX 6000
6.3 / 10 Expert Rating
The value half of NVIDIA's Turing workstation flagship pair; a solid used CAD/VFX card today, though NVIDIA's RTX PRO Ada and Blackwell cards outperform it significantly per watt.
NVIDIA Quadro RTX 8000
6 / 10 Expert Rating
Legacy flagship whose sole remaining selling point is VRAM capacity; a used bargain for memory-bound pro work, a poor choice for anything compute-bound.
