Performance and Usability
NVIDIA Ampere Architecture
NVIDIA RTX A2000 is the most powerful dual slot, low profile GPU solution offering high performance real-time ray tracing, AI-accelerated compute, and professional graphics rendering, all of this in a compact design with unmatched performance. Building upon the major SM enhancements from the Turing GPU, the NVIDIA Ampere architecture enhances ray tracing operations, tensor matrix operations, and concurrent executions of FP32 and INT32 operations.
CUDA Cores
The NVIDIA Ampere architecture-based CUDA cores bring up to 2.7X the single-precision floating point (FP32) throughput compared to the previous generation, providing significant performance improvements for graphics workflows such as 3D model development and compute for workloads such as desktop simulation for computer-aided engineering (CAE). The RTX A2000 enables two FP32 primary data paths, doubling the peak FP32 operations.
Second Generation RT Cores
Incorporating 2nd generation ray tracing engines, NVIDIA Ampere architecture-based GPUs provide incredible ray traced rendering performance. For the first time NVDIA is introducing RT Cores into a low profile form factor GPU. A single RTX A2000 board can render complex professional models with physically accurate shadows, reflections, and refractions to empower users with instant insight. Working in concert with applications leveraging APIs such as NVIDIA OptiX, Microsoft DXR and Vulkan ray tracing, systems based on the RTX A2000 will power truly interactive design workflows to provide immediate feedback for unprecedented levels of productivity. The RTX A2000 is more than 5X faster in ray tracing compared to the previous generation. This technology also speeds up the rendering of ray-traced motion blur for faster results with greater visual accuracy.
Third Generation Tensor Cores
Purpose-built for deep learning matrix arithmetic at the heart of neural network training and inferencing functions, the RTX A2000 includes enhanced Tensor Cores that accelerate more datatypes and includes a new Fine-Grained Structured Sparsity feature that delivers more than 2X throughput for tensor matrix operations compared to the previous generation. New Tensor Cores will accelerate two new TF32 and BFloat16 precision modes. Independent floating-point and integer data paths allow more efficient execution of workloads using a mix of computation and addressing calculations.
PCIe Gen 4
The RTX A2000 supports PCI Express Gen 4, which provides double the bandwidth of PCIe Gen 3, improving data-transfer speeds from CPU memory for data-intensive tasks like AI and data science.
Higher Speed GDDR6 Memory
Built with 6GB GDDR6 memory delivering up to 2X greater throughput for ray tracing, rendering, and AI workloads than the previous generation. The RTX A2000 provides ideal memory footprint to address the datasets and models in latency-sensitive professional applications and at volume.
Error Correcting Code (ECC) on Graphics Memory
Meet strict data integrity requirements for mission critical applications with uncompromised computing accuracy and reliability for workstations.
Fifth Generation NVDEC Engine
NVDEC is well suited for transcoding and video playback applications for real-time decoding. The following video codecs are supported for hardware-accelerated decoding: MPEG-2, VC-1, H.264 (AVCHD), H.265 (HEVC), VP8, VP9, and AV1.
Seventh Generation NVENC Engine
NVENC can take on the most demanding 4K or 8K video encoding tasks to free up the graphics engine and the CPU for other operations. The RTX A2000 provides better encoding quality than software-based x264 encoders.
Graphics Pre-emption
Pixel-level pre-emption provides more granular control to better support time-sensitive tasks such as VR motion tracking.
Compute Pre-emption
Pre-emption at the instruction-level provides finer grain control over compute tasks to prevent long- running applications from either monopolising system resources or timing out.
NVIDIA RTX IO
