Quadro GV100 vs Radeon PRO W5700: In-Depth Breakdown
VRAM: Quadro GV100 vs Radeon PRO W5700
With 32GB of VRAM against the Radeon PRO W5700's 8GB, the Quadro GV100 has a 24GB edge. VRAM is what determines whether a model fits without quantization at all — a 70B-parameter model in FP16 needs around 140GB, and smaller models still benefit from spare capacity. That extra headroom lets the Quadro GV100 load bigger models and run larger production batch sizes.
Inference Speed: Memory Bandwidth
Memory bandwidth determines how quickly data is fed to the compute units — it's the main bottleneck for autoregressive inference (token generation in LLMs). The Quadro GV100 delivers 870 GB/s versus 448 GB/s on the Radeon PRO W5700, a 94% edge. For models already loaded into VRAM, token generation speed scales closely with this number: the Quadro GV100 will produce tokens proportionally faster in bandwidth-bound workloads.
AI Training & Compute
FP32 throughput is the metric that matters most for training, scientific simulation, and rendering work. The Quadro GV100 posts 14.8 TFLOPS versus 8.5 TFLOPS on the Radeon PRO W5700, a 74% compute lead. Expect training jobs and heavy matrix math to finish proportionally sooner on the Quadro GV100.
Which should you buy: Quadro GV100 or Radeon PRO W5700?
For large-model workloads bottlenecked on VRAM, the Quadro GV100 is the better pick. The Radeon PRO W5700 costs less and holds up fine if your models fit inside its 8GB.
