The NVIDIA A16, built on the NVIDIA Ampere architecture, combines with NVIDIA virtual GPU (vGPU) software to raise the bar on user experience for graphics-rich virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI). As more organizations turn to remote work as long term strategy, A16 with the NVIDIA Virtual PC (vPC) or Virtual Applications (vApps) software, enables knowledge workers across every industry to maximize productivity with performance indistinguishable from a native PC. NVIDIA A16 delivers up to 2X the user density, compared with the previous generation M10, reducing the amount of hardware resources needed and lowering the total cost of ownership (TCO).

When combined with NVIDIA RTX Virtual Workstation (vWS) software, the A16 enables affordable entry-level virtual workstations ideal for running workloads such as computer-aided design (CAD). The A16 features a unique quad-GPU board design enabling the provisioning of mixed user profile sizes, so IT can support light virtual PC workloads as well as users with larger memory and graphics requirements. Mixing user types on a board is also supported, enabling the provisioning of virtual PCs, virtual workstations, and even virtualized compute on a single board.
