FLOPS by Precision

What actually differs

The Wormhole is the newer part: Wormhole (2024) against the Quadro RTX 6000's Turing (2018).

Both carry 24 GB of memory. Bandwidth is 672 GB/s against 576 GB/s, which sets the ceiling on decode speed.

Power is 295 W against 300 W, and at FP32 the Quadro RTX 6000 does more work per watt. Weight the FP8 and FP16 rows for LLM work and the FP64 row for HPC.

Frequently asked questions

Is the Quadro RTX 6000 faster than the Wormhole?

They are close on paper: both deliver about 131 TFLOPS of dense FP16 throughput. Memory, bandwidth, and power are the deciding differences.

Which should you choose, the Quadro RTX 6000 or the Wormhole?

On raw FP16 throughput the Quadro RTX 6000 and the Wormhole are level, so the decision rests on memory, power and price. The Quadro RTX 6000 draws 5 W less power, which matters in an air-cooled or power-capped rack.

Which has more memory, the Quadro RTX 6000 or the Wormhole?

Both GPUs carry 24 GB of memory. Memory bandwidth is 672 GB/s for the Quadro RTX 6000 and 576 GB/s for the Wormhole.

How much power do the Quadro RTX 6000 and the Wormhole draw?

The Quadro RTX 6000 is rated at 295 W TDP and the Wormhole at 300 W. On FP32 throughput per watt, the Quadro RTX 6000 is the more efficient part.

How much do the Quadro RTX 6000 and the Wormhole cost to rent?

Live cloud listings tracked by Flopper price the Quadro RTX 6000 from $0.18 per GPU-hour across 2 providers, and no live listings yet for the Wormhole. The rental section on this page links to every provider, rate and the price history for each GPU.
