NVIDIA Tesla P6: specs and benchmarks
Summary
NVIDIA started Tesla P6 sales 24 March 2017. This is a Pascal architecture desktop card based on 16 nm manufacturing process and primarily aimed at designers. 16 GB of GDDR5 memory clocked at 6.01 GHz are supplied, and together with 256 Bit memory interface this creates a bandwidth of 192.3 GB/s.
Compatibility-wise, this is card attached via MXM-B (3.0) interface. No additional power connector is required, and power consumption is at 90 Watt.
