Performance Analysis
The RTX 2080 delivers dense FP16 performance of 40.3 TFLOPS which exceeds the capabilities of the Quadro P5000 where FP16 figures are not published by the vendor. This dense FP16 capability on the RTX 2080 supports faster training iterations compared to its own dense FP32 performance of 10 TFLOPS. The Quadro P5000 provides 8.9 TFLOPS in FP32 without a published dense FP16 rating for direct ratio comparison. Memory bandwidth of 448 GB/s on the RTX 2080 allows for larger batch sizes than the 288 GB/s on the Quadro P5000 in memory intensive tasks. The dense INT8 performance of 161.1 TOPS on the RTX 2080 further differentiates it for quantized workloads against the Quadro P5000 where such figures remain unpublished.
