FLOPS by Precision

What actually differs

Both GPUs launched in 2023: the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti on Ada Lovelace and the L40S on Ada Lovelace.

Dense throughput for the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti against the L40S: FP64 0.3 vs 1.4 TFLOPS, FP32 22 vs 92 TFLOPS, FP16 44 vs 362 TFLOPS, FP8 88 vs 733 TFLOPS. Sparse figures, where the vendor publishes them, appear under each dense number in the performance table.

Memory is 8 GB against 48 GB. More memory per GPU means larger models fit before you have to shard across cards, which often matters more than raw TFLOPS for inference.

Power budgets are 160 W for the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti and 350 W for the L40S. At FP32 that works out to 0.14 against 0.26 TFLOPS per watt.

For LLM training and inference, weight the FP8 and FP16 rows and memory capacity most heavily. For scientific and HPC workloads, the FP64 row is the one to read.

Frequently asked questions
