GTX 1070 vs P100

Specifications and current cloud pricing, side by side.

PascalvsPascalUpdated 33 days ago

The P100 wins for the most common use case of inference because its 9.3 TFLOPS FP32 exceeds the 6.5 TFLOPS FP32 of the GTX 1070 and its 16 GB memory with 732 GB/s bandwidth accommodates larger models than the 8 GB and 256 GB/s configuration.

Performance Analysis

The P100 delivers 9.3 TFLOPS FP32 compared with 6.5 TFLOPS FP32 on the GTX 1070 and adds 18.7 TFLOPS dense FP16 that the GTX 1070 does not publish. This dense FP16 advantage on the P100 allows faster execution of mixed precision operations during training and inference relative to FP32 only paths. Memory bandwidth of 732 GB/s on the P100 versus 256 GB/s on the GTX 1070 supports larger batch sizes before memory capacity of 16 GB versus 8 GB becomes the limiting factor.

When to Choose the GTX 1070

The GTX 1070 suits deployments where TDP must stay at 150W and PCIe interconnect meets all requirements. Its 8 GB GDDR5 configuration handles smaller models that fit within that memory limit without the need for 16 GB HBM2 capacity.

When to Choose the P100

The P100 suits workloads that require 16 GB HBM2 memory and 732 GB/s bandwidth to maintain larger batch sizes. Its 9.3 TFLOPS FP32 and 18.7 TFLOPS dense FP16 figures accelerate operations that exceed the 6.5 TFLOPS FP32 limit of the GTX 1070.

How this page is made

  • Specifications come from the NVIDIA, AMD and Intel datasheets for the GTX 1070 and the P100. 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.
