Table 1. Quadro RTX 3000 performance features
| Component | Description |
|---|---|
| RT cores | Dedicated hardware-based ray-tracing technology allows the GPU to render film quality, photorealistic objects and environments with physically accurate shadows, reflections, and refractions. The real-time ray-tracing engine works with NVIDIA OptiX, Microsoft DXR, and Vulkan APIs to deliver realism far beyond what is possible using traditional rendering techniques. RT cores accelerate the Bounding Volume Hierarchy (BVH) traversal and ray casting functions using a low number of rays cast through a pixel. |
| Enhanced tensor cores | Mixed-precision cores purpose-built for deep learning matrix arithmetic deliver 8x TFLOPS for training compared with the previous generation. Quadro RTX 3000 utilizes 240 Tensor Cores; each Tensor Core performs 64 floating-point fused multiply add (FMA) operations per clock, and each streaming multiprocessor (SM) performs 1,024 individual floating-point operations per clock. In addition to supporting FP16/FP32 matrix operations, new Tensor Cores added INT8 (2,048 integer operations per clock) and experimental INT4 and INT1 (binary) precision modes for matrix operations. |
| Turing optimized software | Deep learning frameworks such as the Microsoft Cognitive Toolkit (CNTK), Caffe2, MXNet, TensorFlow, and others deliver significantly faster training times and higher multi-node training performance. GPU-accelerated libraries such as cuDNN, cuBLAS, and TensorRT deliver higher performance for deep learning inference and High-Performance Computing (HPC) applications. |
| NVIDIA CUDA parallel computing platform | Natively execute standard programming languages like C/C++ and Fortran, and APIs like OpenCL, OpenACC and Direct Compute to accelerate techniques like ray tracing, video and image processing, and computation fluid dynamics. |
| Advanced streaming multiprocessor (SM) architecture | Combined shared memory and L1 cache improve performance significantly while simplifying programming and reducing the tuning required to attain the best application performance. |
| High-performance GDDR6 Memory | Quadro RTX 3000 features 6 GB of frame buffer, making it the ideal platform for handling large datasets and latency-sensitive applications. |
| Single instruction, multiple thread (SIMT) | New independent thread scheduling capability enables finer-grain synchronization and cooperation between parallel threads by sharing resources among small jobs. |
| Mixed-precision computing | 16-bit floating-point precision computing enables the training and deployment of larger neural networks. With independent parallel integer and floating-point data paths, the Turing SM handles workloads more efficiently using a mix of computation and addressing calculations. |
| Dynamic load balancing | Provides dynamic allocation capabilities of GPU resources for graphics and compute tasks as needed to maximize resource utilization. |
| Compute preemption | Preemption at the instruction level provides finer-grain control over compute tasks to prevent long-running applications from monopolizing system resources or timing out. |
| H.264, H.265 and HEVC encode/decode engines | Enables faster than real-time performance for transcoding, video editing, and other encoding applications with two dedicated H.264 and HEVC encode engines and a dedicated decode engine that is independent of the 3D/compute pipeline. |
| NVIDIA GPU boost 4.0 | Maximizes application performance automatically without exceeding the power and thermal envelope of the GPU. Allows applications to stay within the boost clock state longer under a higher temperature threshold before dropping to a secondary temperature setting base clock. |
