Performance Analysis

The P100 delivers 18.7 TFLOPS dense FP16 and 9.3 TFLOPS FP32. The RTX 4060 delivers 15.1 TFLOPS FP32 and 242 TFLOPS FP8 with sparsity. The higher dense FP16 rating on the P100 supports larger batch sizes during training of models that rely on that precision. The RTX 4060 higher FP32 rating supports faster single precision inference workloads. Memory bandwidth of 732 GB/s on the P100 versus 272 GB/s on the RTX 4060 allows the P100 to sustain larger batches before memory becomes the limit in bandwidth bound kernels.

When to Choose the P100

Its 18.7 TFLOPS dense FP16 rating also favors older training pipelines written for Pascal architecture and NVLink interconnects.

When to Choose the RTX 4060

The RTX 4060 suits inference workloads that run on 15.1 TFLOPS FP32 at a 115W TDP. Its PCIe 4.0 interconnect and lower power draw make it preferable for sustained inference on power constrained cloud nodes.

Use Cases

LLM Training
P100

The P100 supplies 18.7 TFLOPS dense FP16 and 16 GB HBM2 memory that supports larger training batches than the RTX 4060 8-16 GB GDDR6 configuration.

LLM Inference
RTX 4060

The RTX 4060 15.1 TFLOPS FP32 rating exceeds the P100 9.3 TFLOPS FP32 rating at 115W TDP for sustained inference runs.

Fine-tuning
RTX 4060

The RTX 4060 lower 115W TDP and 15.1 TFLOPS FP32 rating allow efficient fine tuning sessions compared with the P100 250W TDP.

Stable Diffusion
RTX 4060

The RTX 4060 242 TFLOPS FP8 with sparsity rating accelerates diffusion workloads beyond the P100 published figures.

Scientific Computing
P100

The P100 732 GB/s bandwidth and 16 GB HBM2 memory suit memory intensive scientific kernels better than the RTX 4060 272 GB/s bandwidth.

How this page is made

  • Specifications come from the NVIDIA, AMD and Intel datasheets for the P100 and the RTX 4060. 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.
