NVIDIA A100 PCIe 80GB

80 GB HBM2e · 5120-bit · 6,912 cores

A PCI Express add-in card version of the Ampere data center accelerator with double the memory of the original 40 GB model and faster HBM2e, aimed at large AI models, recommender systems and HPC workloads limited by memory capacity and bandwidth. It keeps Multi-Instance GPU partitioning, and two cards can be paired with an NVLink bridge. Announced in June 2021.

Notes
Third-generation Tensor Cores supporting FP64, TF32, BF16, FP16, INT8, INT4 and binary; FP8 arrived with Hopper. Peak throughput with structured sparsity: INT8 1,248 TOPS, FP16 and BFLOAT16 624 TFLOPS, TF32 312 TFLOPS; dense rates are half. FP64 is 9.7 TFLOPS, FP64 Tensor Core and FP32 19.5 TFLOPS each. Multi-Instance GPU partitions the card into up to seven instances.
