NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Fully Utilizing GP102; Gaming Benchmarks Reveal NVIDIA Quadro P6000 Faster Than Titan X (P) [VIDEO]
The Nvidia Quadro P6000 was tested in the various workstations and even in gaming benchmarks, and the result showed it easily outpacing the mighty Titan X. This means that Nvidia may have the best graphics card till date by giving the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti with a full GP102 core, then it can be the first 4K which is capable of running games at 60 FPS.
The Nvidia Quadro P6000 graphics card and its lower variant P5000 were unveiled during the SIGGRAPH 2016 as the only Pascal-based graphic cards of Nvidia. The Quadro P6000 is target towards the workstation and professional use, but has been tested in both workstation-specific and gaming benchmarks, reports University Herald.
The P6000 utilizes in full the GP102 GPU, soft a configuration of 3,840 CUDA cores as against Titan X's 3,584 cores. Card is clocked at 1.417 MHz with a boost to 1,530 MHz, clock speeds, which has produced a rated compute output of 12 FLOPS that is above the single precision performance on the Tesla 100.
The Nvidia Quadro P6000 has the maximum capacity in the Pascal architecture with 24GB of GDDR5X VRAM and a memory clock running at 9.0 GB/s alongside a 384-bit bus. Its total memory bandwidth is 432 GB/s using the GDDR5X standard.
The Nvidia Quadro P6000, however, does not have the double precision hardware like the Tesla, which is compute-intensive, allowing it to produce single and half precision performance with higher clock speeds under a lower TDP. Card's TDP is at 250W that is below the 300W on the Tesla 100.
According to Hot Hardware, they have tested the Nvidia Quadro P6000 in workstation-specific benchmarks and it had discovered that it has easily outpaced the GeForce GTX Titan X, by producing a score of 8,698 as against Titan X's 8,175.
The major difference between the two cards is that Titan X utilizes a scaled-down variant of the GP102, while P6000 utilizes it in full.
The Quadro P6000 was also tested in Hitman 2016, a graphics concentrated game running it easily at 60 FPS. The Titan X's average FPS is at 58.39 against P6000's 68.37 FPS.
The Nvidia Quadro P6000 benchmark results unveiled that Nvidia could launch the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti utilizing in full the GP102 core instead of a cut-down variant. In that situation, according to Forbes, the 1080 Ti could be the first 4K graphics card that is able to run at 60 FPS.
