FLOPS by Precision

What actually differs

Both GPUs launched in 2023: the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti on Ada Lovelace and the RTX 6000 Ada on Ada Lovelace.

Dense throughput for the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti against the RTX 6000 Ada: FP32 40 vs 91 TFLOPS, FP8 160 vs 729 TFLOPS. Sparse figures, where the vendor publishes them, appear under each dense number in the performance table.

Memory is 12 GB against 48 GB, fed at 504 GB/s versus 960 GB/s. 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 285 W for the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti and 300 W for the RTX 6000 Ada. At FP32 that works out to 0.14 against 0.30 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.
