What is the NVIDIA A10?

The A10 is a GPU from NVIDIA on the Ampere architecture, an accelerator for AI training, inference and high-performance computing. It is a PCIe add-in card, so it fits standard servers and workstations. A10 full specifications →

Can I rent the A10 in the cloud?

Yes. Cloud providers tracked by Flopper rent the A10 by the hour, and the pricing page compares their current rates and the price history side by side. A10 rental prices →

How does the A10 compare with other accelerators?

This page sets the A10 against the A800. The A10 is the older generation of the two. Both are NVIDIA parts, and both ship as a PCIe card, so they fit the same class of system. The compare tool builds the same comparison for any two parts in the catalogue. All GPU comparisons →

Figures are dense. Where a vendor publishes a figure it sits under the dense one and never decides a winner. Hover any precision for its definition, or read the GPU glossary.

FLOPS by Precision

What actually differs

The A800 is the newer part: Ampere (2022) against the A10's Ampere (2021).

The A800 carries 56 GB more memory (80 GB against 24 GB), so larger models fit on one GPU before you shard. Bandwidth is 600 GB/s against 1.9 TB/s, which sets the ceiling on decode speed.

Power is 150 W against 300 W, and at FP32 the A10 does more work per watt. Weight the FP8 and FP16 rows for LLM work and the FP64 row for HPC.
