GTX 1070 vs V100

Specifications and current cloud pricing, side by side.

PascalvsVoltaUpdated 34 days ago

The V100 constitutes the stronger choice for the most common use case of model training because its 15.7 TFLOPS FP32 and 125 TFLOPS dense FP16 exceed the GTX 1070 capabilities while its 900 GB/s bandwidth supports larger batches.

Performance Analysis

The FP32 performance ratio of 15.7 TFLOPS to 6.5 TFLOPS indicates the V100 completes the same dense floating point operations in less than half the time required by the GTX 1070. The V100 further supplies 125 TFLOPS dense FP16 that has no counterpart on the GTX 1070 and therefore enables training and inference steps that exploit reduced precision without loss of the dense designation. Memory bandwidth of 900 GB/s versus 256 GB/s permits the V100 to sustain larger batch sizes during both training and inference before memory capacity or transfer rates become limiting factors.

When to Choose the GTX 1070

The GTX 1070 suits environments where power draw must remain at 150 W and where FP32 workloads fit within 8 GB VRAM. Legacy applications that run exclusively on PCIe 3.0 interconnects without need for NVLink continue to operate on the GTX 1070 without modification.

When to Choose the V100

The V100 fits workloads that require 15.7 TFLOPS FP32 or 125 TFLOPS dense FP16 together with memory bandwidth of 900 GB/s.

Use Cases

LLM Training
V100

The V100 supplies 125 TFLOPS dense FP16 and 15.7 TFLOPS FP32 that exceed GTX 1070 figures and therefore accelerate training iterations.

LLM Inference
V100

The V100 900 GB/s bandwidth and 16 GB to 32 GB VRAM allow larger batch inference than the GTX 1070 256 GB/s and 8 GB configuration.

Fine-tuning
V100

The V100 15.7 TFLOPS FP32 combined with higher memory bandwidth supports fine-tuning steps more efficiently than the GTX 1070 6.5 TFLOPS FP32.

Stable Diffusion
V100

The V100 dense FP16 capability and 900 GB/s bandwidth handle diffusion workloads with larger resolutions than the GTX 1070 specifications permit.

Scientific Computing
V100

The V100 15.7 TFLOPS FP32 and optional NVLink interconnect deliver higher throughput for scientific simulations than the GTX 1070 PCIe 3.0 only design.

Frequently Asked Questions

What FP32 performance difference exists between the GTX 1070 and V100?▾

The GTX 1070 lists 6.5 TFLOPS FP32 while the V100 lists 15.7 TFLOPS FP32. This produces a ratio of roughly 2.4 times higher FP32 throughput on the V100.

How does memory bandwidth compare on the GTX 1070 versus the V100?▾

The GTX 1070 provides 256 GB/s memory bandwidth whereas the V100 provides 900 GB/s memory bandwidth. The V100 therefore sustains higher data movement rates during compute intensive phases.

Which GPU offers dense FP16 performance?▾

Only the V100 publishes a dense FP16 figure of 125 TFLOPS. The GTX 1070 does not publish an FP16 value and therefore cannot be compared on that metric.

What power limits apply to the GTX 1070 and V100?▾

The GTX 1070 carries a 150 W TDP while the V100 carries a 300 W TDP. Systems must therefore supply adequate power and cooling for the higher figure on the V100.

Which interconnects does each card support?▾

The GTX 1070 supports only PCIe 3.0 while the V100 supports both NVLink and PCIe 3.0. Multi GPU scaling therefore differs according to the chosen interconnect.

Which is cheaper to rent, the GTX 1070 or the V100?▾

Cloud rental prices for both the GTX 1070 and V100 vary by provider, configuration, and availability. This page shows live pricing from 25+ providers updated every 60 seconds. Scroll to the Live Cloud Pricing section to compare current rates.

How much VRAM does the GTX 1070 have compared to the V100?▾

The GTX 1070 has 8 GB of GDDR5 memory. The V100 has 16 to 32 GB of HBM2 memory.

Can I find GTX 1070 and V100 GPUs available to rent right now?▾

Yes. This page shows real-time availability across 25+ cloud GPU providers. The Live Cloud Pricing section displays only in-stock offers with current pricing.

What is the main difference between the GTX 1070 and the V100?▾

The GTX 1070 uses the Pascal architecture (2016) while the V100 uses Volta (2017). The GTX 1070 has 8 GB of GDDR5 at 256 GB/s; the V100 has 16-32 GB of HBM2 at 900 GB/s, so the V100 has 3.5x the memory bandwidth of the GTX 1070.

How this page is made

  • Specifications come from the NVIDIA, AMD and Intel datasheets for the GTX 1070 and the V100. 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.
