GPU Benchmarks NVIDIA Tesla V100 vs. NVIDIA RTX 3090

Quick links:

Best GPUs for deep learning, AI development, compute in 2023–2024. Recommended GPU & hardware for AI training, inference (LLMs, generative AI). GPU training, inference benchmarks using PyTorch, TensorFlow for computer vision (CV), NLP, text-to-speech, etc.

We benchmark NVIDIA Tesla V100 vs NVIDIA RTX 3090 GPUs and compare AI performance (deep learning training; FP16, FP32, PyTorch, TensorFlow), 3d rendering, Cryo-EM performance in the most popular apps (Octane, VRay, Redshift, Blender, Luxmark, Unreal Engine, Relion Cryo-EM).

Our benchmarks will help you decide which GPU (NVIDIA RTX 4090/4080, H100 Hopper, H200, A100, RTX 6000 Ada, A6000, A5000, or RTX 6000 ADA Lovelace) is the best GPU for your needs. We provide an in-depth analysis of the AI performance of each graphic card's performance so you can make the most informed decision possible. We offer deep learning and 3d rendering benchmarks that will help you get the most out of your hardware.
