Quadro RTX 4000 vs RTX 4060

Specifications and current cloud pricing, side by side.

TuringvsAda LovelaceUpdated 31 days ago

The RTX 4060 is the stronger choice for the most common use case of LLM inference because its 15.1 TFLOPS FP32 rating doubles the 7.1 TFLOPS FP32 of the Quadro RTX 4000 while operating at a lower 115W TDP.

Performance Analysis

FP32 throughput of 15.1 TFLOPS on the RTX 4060 exceeds the 7.1 TFLOPS figure on the Quadro RTX 4000 by a factor of roughly two. The Quadro RTX 4000 supplies 57 TFLOPS dense FP16 which supports certain mixed precision operations unavailable in published figures for the RTX 4060. Memory bandwidth of 416 GB/s on the Quadro RTX 4000 permits larger batch sizes in memory bound tasks compared with 272 GB/s on the RTX 4060. Lower TDP of 115W on the RTX 4060 reduces power draw relative to 125W on the Quadro RTX 4000 during sustained FP32 workloads. The 2023 architecture on the RTX 4060 pairs with PCIe 4.0 interconnect while the 2018 design on the Quadro RTX 4000 uses PCIe 3.0.
