FLOPS by Precision

What actually differs

Both launched in 2018, the Quadro RTX 5000 on Turing and the Titan RTX on Turing.

The Titan RTX carries 8 GB more memory (24 GB against 16 GB), so larger models fit on one GPU before you shard. Bandwidth is 448 GB/s against 672 GB/s, which sets the ceiling on decode speed.

Power is 265 W against 280 W, and at FP32 the Titan RTX does more work per watt. Weight the FP8 and FP16 rows for LLM work and the FP64 row for HPC.
