NVIDIA RTX 2080 Ti vs NVIDIA V100 16GB for local LLMs
2 reports on the NVIDIA RTX 2080 Ti and 16 on the NVIDIA V100 16GB
Which is faster for local LLMs?
Nobody has reported the same model at the same quant on both cards yet, so there's no measured head-to-head. Memory bandwidth, which caps how fast a card can write, is 46% higher on the NVIDIA V100 16GB (616 GB/s on the NVIDIA RTX 2080 Ti, 900 on the NVIDIA V100 16GB).
