| 14 | +# NC RTXPRO6000BSE v6 series |
| 15 | + |
| 16 | +These NC RTX PRO 6000 BSE v6 VMs are powered by NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server Edition GPUs, each featuring 96 GB of ultra-fast GDDR7 memory and the latest Blackwell architecture to enable breakthrough performance in multimodal AI, physical AI, and high-fidelity graphics. The VM host is equipped with Intel Granite Rapids CPUs, providing all-core turbo frequency of up to 4.2 GHz to handle demanding pre- and post-processing steps efficiently. These VMs are ideal for converged AI and visual computing workloads, such as: |
| 17 | +- Real-time digital twin and NVIDIA Omniverse simulation. |
| 18 | +- LLM Inference and RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) for models under 70B parameters. |
| 19 | +- High-fidelity 3D rendering, product design, and video streaming. |
| 20 | +- GPU-accelerated desktop virtualization (VDI) with NVIDIA RTX Virtual Workstation. |
| 21 | +- Scientific visualization and High-Performance Computing (HPC) using FP32. |
| 22 | +- Agentic AI application development and deployment. |

| 75 | +## Storage Notes |
| 76 | +- Temp disk speed varies between Random Read (RR) and Random Write (RW). RR is typically faster. |
| 77 | +- Capacity is shown in GiB (1024³ bytes). When comparing to GB (1000³ bytes), GiB values may appear smaller. For example, 1023 GiB = 1098.4 GB. |
| 78 | +- Disk throughput is measured in IOPS and MBps (MBps = 10⁶ bytes/sec). |
| 79 | +- For optimal storage performance, see [Virtual machine and disk performance](../../../virtual-machines/disks-performance.md). |
| 80 | + |
| 81 | +## Networking Notes |
| 82 | + |
| 83 | +- Expected bandwidth is the maximum aggregated bandwidth per VM type across all NICs. For more information, see [Virtual machine network bandwidth](/azure/virtual-network/virtual-machine-network-throughput). |
| 84 | +- Upper limits are guidelines, not guarantees. Actual performance depends on network congestion, application load, and settings. To optimizing network throughput, see [Optimize network throughput for Azure virtual machines](/azure/virtual-network/virtual-network-optimize-network-bandwidth). |
| 85 | +- For bandwidth testing, see [Bandwidth/Throughput testing (NTTTCP)](/azure/virtual-network/virtual-network-bandwidth-testing). |
