The V100 32G is an NVIDIA Volta-architecture Tensor Core GPU optimized for deep learning, machine learning and high-performance computing. This product ships with 32 GB of high-bandwidth memory and 5,120 CUDA cores to accelerate training and inference workloads on desktop systems.
Key specifications include 32 GB memory capacity (HBM2), 5,120 CUDA cores, a main clock frequency listed at 1370 MHz, Volta Tensor Cores for mixed-precision acceleration, and a one-year warranty (per the product listing).
The V100 supports multiple numeric precisions: FP32 (single-precision), FP16 (half-precision) accelerated by Tensor Cores for mixed-precision training, and FP64 (double-precision) for HPC workloads. Mixed-precision workflows typically deliver the largest training throughput improvements.
Yes. The V100 is widely supported by major frameworks such as TensorFlow, PyTorch, MXNet and others via NVIDIA CUDA and cuDNN libraries. Use the appropriate CUDA toolkit and framework builds for optimal performance.
Install the appropriate NVIDIA display/compute driver for your OS and the CUDA toolkit version recommended by your framework. Also install cuDNN and any framework-specific GPU builds. Refer to NVIDIA release notes for exact driver/CUDA version compatibility.
The V100 typically requires a PCIe x16 slot on the motherboard and occupies a dual-slot, full-height bay in most desktop cases. Confirm the exact form factor with the seller, as there are different OEM variants.
The V100 is a high-power accelerator and requires a robust system power supply and appropriate external PCIe power connectors. Exact power draw varies by variant; check the vendor's specification sheet for the card's TDP and required connectors and ensure your PSU has sufficient headroom.
NVLink support depends on the specific V100 variant. The SXM2 variant supports NVLink for high-bandwidth GPU-to-GPU communication, while some PCIe desktop variants do not. Confirm the exact model/variant if NVLink is required.
32 GB of HBM2 memory allows training larger models and larger batch sizes without needing model parallelism or frequent CPU-GPU transfers. This reduces data movement overhead and enables more efficient experimentation and faster convergence for many models.
Performance gains vary by workload and precision, but Volta Tensor Cores and many-core CUDA execution can provide orders-of-magnitude speedups for matrix-heavy deep learning tasks compared with CPU-only execution. Real-world speedups depend on model, batch size, and software optimization.
Volta-based datacenter-class cards, including V100 variants, generally support ECC for increased reliability on memory operations. Verify the specific product listing or vendor datasheet to confirm ECC support for the particular unit you purchase.
The V100 is supported under major operating systems commonly used for training: Linux (typical datacenter/desktop distributions) and Windows. Linux distributions are most commonly used in production and research environments; ensure driver compatibility for your OS version.
The product description lists a one-year warranty. For extended warranty, enterprise support, or RMA details, check with the seller or NVIDIA-authorized reseller from whom you purchase the card.
