FLOPS by Precision

What actually differs

The Arc Pro B70 is the newer part: Battlemage (2026) against the L40's Ada Lovelace (2023).

The L40 carries 16 GB more memory (48 GB against 32 GB), so larger models fit on one GPU before you shard. Bandwidth is 608 GB/s against 864 GB/s, which sets the ceiling on decode speed.

Power is 230 W against 300 W, and at FP32 the L40 does more work per watt. Weight the FP8 and FP16 rows for LLM work and the FP64 row for HPC.
