When to Choose the GTX 1080
The GTX 1080 suits deployments where TDP must remain at 180 W and VRAM requirements stay within 8 to 11 GB. Its 8.9 TFLOPS dense FP32 performance meets needs when the 12.6 TFLOPS dense FP32 figure of the alternative exceeds power or thermal budgets.
When to Choose the Quadro P6000
The Quadro P6000 fits workloads that require 24 GB VRAM together with 12.6 TFLOPS dense FP32 performance. Its 432 GB per second bandwidth further aids cases where the GTX 1080 bandwidth of 320 GB per second would constrain throughput.
Use Cases
The Quadro P6000 provides 24 GB VRAM and 12.6 TFLOPS dense FP32 performance that exceed the GTX 1080 limits of 8 to 11 GB VRAM and 8.9 TFLOPS dense FP32 performance.
The Quadro P6000 supplies 432 GB per second bandwidth and 12.6 TFLOPS dense FP32 performance that surpass the GTX 1080 values of 320 GB per second and 8.9 TFLOPS dense FP32 performance.
The Quadro P6000 offers 24 GB VRAM which accommodates larger models than the 8 to 11 GB VRAM available on the GTX 1080.
Both GPUs deliver Pascal architecture FP32 performance though the GTX 1080 at 180 W TDP may suit power constrained setups while the Quadro P6000 at 12.6 TFLOPS dense FP32 suits higher throughput.
The Quadro P6000 provides 12.6 TFLOPS dense FP32 performance and 432 GB per second bandwidth that exceed the GTX 1080 specifications of 8.9 TFLOPS dense FP32 performance and 320 GB per second bandwidth.
