Performance Analysis
Dense FP16 performance reaches 165 TFLOPS on the A30 against 61.7 TFLOPS on the RTX 5070 while FP16 with sparsity reaches 330 TFLOPS against 123.5 TFLOPS. This gap indicates that the A30 sustains larger batch sizes during training and inference steps that rely on half precision arithmetic. Memory bandwidth of 933 GB/s on the A30 versus 672 GB/s on the RTX 5070 further supports higher throughput when data movement limits overall execution. FP32 performance of 10.3 TFLOPS on the A30 versus 30.9 TFLOPS on the RTX 5070 shows the RTX 5070 advantage in workloads that require full single precision calculations. INT8 dense performance stands at 330 TOPS for the A30 and 246.9 TOPS for the RTX 5070.
