NVIDIA Quadro RTX 8000 3DMark Suite Testing

Here we will run the NVIDIA Quadro RTX 8000 through graphics-related benchmarks. These are still GPUs so we wanted to give at least a perspective on this aspect of performance.

As we have seen in the past, the Quadro line does not compete well with GeForce graphics cards in 3DMark benchmarks, the NVIDIA RTX 2080 Ti often performs better in these. On Port Royal, the company’s real-time ray tracing benchmark, we see a different pattern.

Port Royal is the exception which clearly is the best performer next to going to Titan RTX NVLink setups.

Here are the 3DMark suite results. We will discuss them after the charts.

Overall we see expected performance from the NVIDIA Quadro RTX 8000. The NVIDIA RTX 2080 Ti often performs better in these. The delta between the Titan RTX and GeForce 2080 Ti in this more gaming related benchmark still shows that even in the worst case the Quadro RTX 8000 has top-bin performance.

Next, we are going to look at the NVIDIA Quadro RTX 8000 with several deep learning benchmarks.

  1. I disagree with the closing statement, the real competition to this card when you don’t need the memory capacity but do need additional performance is a dual RTX5000 setup and not a single RTX6000. Other than that great article and overview of the RTX8000

  2. For deep learning, or (most?) any machine learning, ECC RAM is unnecessary. 48GB is great though. The more the better.

  3. Something appears to have gone wrong with the Octane benchmark. There is typically a really small difference between the 2080ti and the RTX 8000. Are we sure those are the correct results? :)

  4. @Nejc The scene probably needs to address some out-of-core memory on 11GB VRAM cards which is not needed on RTX Titan & RTX 6000/8000

  5. Quadros would blow the doors off all these cards if they weren’t built for wait for it…. REDUNDANCY. Meaning ECC capabilities. Stop comparing Professional grade cards with basic consumer-grade cards. If you cannot comprehend what redundancy is or why it is needed on a Professional basis then you morons just need to learn to shut up. Quadros are not “gaming” cards. Idiots.
