Performance Analysis

The FP32 performance of 5.3 TFLOPS on the Quadro P4000 contrasts with 48.7 TFLOPS on the RTX 4080 indicating substantial increases in computational capacity. For training and inference the dense FP16 figure of 97.5 TFLOPS on the RTX 4080 allows faster operations compared to unavailable figures on the older card. Memory bandwidth of 717 GB/s versus 243 GB/s supports larger batch sizes in memory intensive tasks. Sparsity options on the RTX 4080 provide dense FP16 at 97.5 TFLOPS and with sparsity at 195 TFLOPS while similar data remains unavailable for the Quadro P4000. These deltas translate to reduced training times for models that fit within 16 GB VRAM on the newer GPU.
