American astronomer Vera Rubin will become the “patron” of the graphic architecture of hypothetical video cards NVIDIA RTX 6000. Although the company has not yet officially revealed this name, it has been known for some time after last year's leak. The company recently introduced its most powerful chip, Blackwell B100, video cards with which will appear this year.

Analyst Ming-Chi Kuo reports that the R100 GPU will go into mass production before the end of 2025. Production of ready-made server solutions will begin no earlier than the first quarter of 2026. We are talking specifically about production times, not delivery.
NVIDIA is still finalizing the specifications of the new chip, such as die size and packaging. Three options are currently being considered, including using CoWoS-L packaging, which is already used by Blackwell GPUs. Rubin will reportedly use TSMC N3 process technology.
One of the things NVIDIA is focusing on with the Rubin architecture is power consumption. High energy costs can stop customers from purchasing powerful computers. The Blackwell B200 GPU can consume up to 1000 watts. The analyst confirms previous statements that Rubin uses 4x HBM4 high-speed memory stacks. There are no details yet about superchips based on the new architecture, similar to GH200 or GB200.
