FLOPS by Precision

What actually differs

The Quadro P4000 is the newer part: Pascal (2017) against the P100's Pascal (2016).

The P100 carries 8 GB more memory (16 GB against 8 GB), so larger models fit on one GPU before you shard. Bandwidth is 732 GB/s against 243 GB/s, which sets the ceiling on decode speed.

Power is 250 W against 105 W, and at FP32 the Quadro P4000 does more work per watt. Weight the FP8 and FP16 rows for LLM work and the FP64 row for HPC.
