NVIDIA Tesla K80 24GB GDDR5 datacenter
Its dual-GPU design delivers 8.73 teraflops of single-precision compute and 24GB of GDDR5 memory with ECC protection, making it a throughput workhorse for server environments. The passive cooling requires directed server airflow, and its 480 GB/s memory bandwidth suits sustained, error-sensitive calculations. This accelerator is best for data center operators running dense, double-precision scientific simulations on legacy infrastructure.
