Performance Analysis
The RTX 2080 Ti outperforms the Quadro P4000 in compute-intensive tasks: its 10.1 TFLOPS FP16 and FP32 ratings double the P4000's 5.3 TFLOPS, accelerating deep learning training by approximately two times in half-precision workflows. Inference benefits similarly, as higher throughput reduces latency for model deployments.
Memory bandwidth of 616 GB/s on the 2080 Ti versus 243 GB/s on the P4000 enables larger batch sizes in training runs, minimizing data loading bottlenecks and boosting overall efficiency. The 8-11 GB GDDR6 VRAM supports bigger models compared to the P4000's 8 GB GDDR5, reducing out-of-memory errors in memory-hungry applications.
Turing architecture adds tensor core advantages over Pascal, enhancing mixed-precision operations common in modern AI pipelines. Higher TDP of 215 W reflects this capability, though it demands robust cooling versus the P4000's efficient 105 W draw.
