A signed Jensen Huang<\/a> workstation GPU sold at auction for over $57,000.<\/p>\n

The auction featured items themed around Steve Jobs and the computing revolution.<\/p>\n

The GPU, which Huang signed twice, far exceeded its initial estimates.<\/p>\n

A twice-signed Jensen Huang workstation GPU sold for nearly 10 times its initial estimate.<\/p>\n

The “RTX Pro 6000 Blackwell Workstation Edition” sold<\/a> for $57,450 as part of RR Auction’s “Steve Jobs & the Computer Revolution: The Apple 50th Anniversary Auction Part Two” lot. Bidding concluded on Thursday.<\/p>\n

The workstation-edition GPU is expensive on its own, ranging from $12,000 to $16,000. While video game graphics cards made Nvidia<\/a> famous (and Huang has signed his fair share of those), this system is built for intensive tasks like AI development. Nvidia calls the item “the most powerful desktop GPU ever created.”<\/p>\n

Of the entire lot, a rare and restored to working condition “‘Neumark’ Apple-1” computer sold for the most at $499,363. As the main draw, a number of personal Jobs items were also sold, including photographs that hung in his living room, a note to his father, computer parts stored at the family home, and even Jobs’ 8th Grade Science Fair Project.<\/a><\/p>\n

Unlike Jobs’ decades-old project, the Huang-signed GPU had mere months to accumulate value. According to RR Auctions, the graphics card was a raffle prize at the GTC 2026 Physical AI Meetup, an event held alongside Nvidia’s massive annual conference in March.<\/p>\n

While the card sold for a pretty penny, its total price is still far below what’s likely the most expensive Huang item ever sold at public auction.<\/p>\n

In July, Sotheby’s auctioned off a pre-worn, signed Tom Ford jacket by Huang for $960,000 with the proceeds benefiting <\/a>a nonprofit that funds fellowships and residencies for next-generation founders.<\/p>\n

The nearly $1 million final bid was far over the auction house’s initial estimate of $40,000 to $60,000.<\/p>\n
