Performance Analysis

The Quadro RTX 5000 records dense FP16 performance of 89.2 TFLOPS while the RTX 2070 records dense FP16 performance of 29.9 TFLOPS, producing a ratio of three to one. The Quadro RTX 5000 also records dense FP32 performance of 11.2 TFLOPS against 7.5 TFLOPS for the RTX 2070. Dense INT8 ratings stand at 178.4 TOPS for the Quadro RTX 5000 and 119.4 TOPS for the RTX 2070. Identical memory bandwidth of 448 GB/s on both cards means the Quadro RTX 5000 can sustain larger batch sizes in memory-bound operations because of its doubled VRAM capacity. The higher TDP of 230W on the Quadro RTX 5000 accompanies these elevated dense tensor ratings.

When to Choose the Quadro RTX 5000

The Quadro RTX 5000 suits workloads that require 16 GB of GDDR6 VRAM together with dense FP16 performance of 89.2 TFLOPS. Professional applications that scale with the 178.4 TOPS dense INT8 rating and NVLink interconnect benefit from this configuration over the RTX 2070.

When to Choose the RTX 2070

The RTX 2070 fits scenarios where 8 GB of GDDR6 VRAM and a TDP of 175W meet requirements alongside dense FP32 performance of 7.5 TFLOPS. Tasks that do not exceed these memory and power limits can operate on the RTX 2070 without the higher 230W TDP of the Quadro RTX 5000.
