Performance Analysis

Dense FP16 performance reaches 2250 TFLOPS on the B300 and 71 TFLOPS on the RTX 3090. Training workloads therefore complete iterations more rapidly on the B300 because its dense FP16 rating of 2250 TFLOPS exceeds the RTX 3090 dense FP16 rating of 71 TFLOPS. Inference workloads follow the same pattern when both GPUs operate in dense FP16 mode without sparsity.

When to Choose the B300

The B300 serves workloads that need memory capacity between 262 and 288 GB of HBM3e together with 8000 GB/s bandwidth. Tasks that utilize 2250 TFLOPS dense FP16 or 4500 TFLOPS with sparsity align with the B300 specifications in SXM6 form factor.

When to Choose the RTX 3090

The RTX 3090 serves workloads constrained to 350W TDP and PCIe form factor. Tasks that fit within 24 GB VRAM and operate at 71 TFLOPS dense FP16 align with the RTX 3090 specifications.

How this page is made

  • Specifications come from the NVIDIA, AMD and Intel datasheets for the B300 and the RTX 3090. Dense and sparse throughput are listed separately.
  • Prices and availability are live: every offer shown is an in-stock, on-demand listing from a provider we track, rechecked every minute.
  • The written comparison (overview, performance notes, when to choose each card, verdict, use cases and FAQ) was drafted with an AI model from the specification table above and passed an automated check that rejects any figure not in that table. It was last generated on . It contains no prices; those are always read live.
