Summary
About the NVIDIA A30 GPU
The NVIDIA A30 is an end-of-life workstation graphics card that released in Q2 2021. It is built on the Ampere GPU microarchitecture (codename GA100) and is manufactured on a 7 nm process.
Memory
The A30 has 24 GB of HBM2e memory, with a 1,215 MHz memory clock and a 3,072 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 933.1 Gb/s, which affects how fast it can transfer data to and from memory. GPU memory stores temporary data that helps the GPU with complex math and graphics operations. More memory is generally better, as not having enough can cause performance bottlenecks.
Cores and Clock Speeds
The A30 includes 3,584 CUDA cores, the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 930 MHz and can dynamically boost its clock speed up to 1,440 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 224 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 96 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing. Additionally, the GPU features 224 tensor cores optimized for AI-accelerated workloads.
Compatibility & Power Consumption
The A30 occupies 2 PCIe expansion slots. NVIDIA recommends a power supply of at least 450 W to handle the GPU's thermal design power (TDP) of 165 W.
