PNY NVIDIA L40 Passive Graphics Card

Unprecedented Visual Computing Performance for the Data Center

From virtual workstations to large-scale modelling and simulation, modern visual computing and scientific applications are growing in complexity and quantity. Enterprises need data center solutions that can deliver extreme performance and scale with versatile capabilities to conquer the diverse computing demands of these increasingly complex workloads.

The NVIDIA L40 delivers unprecedented visual computing performance for the data center, providing next-generation graphics, compute, and AI capabilities to GPU-accelerated applications. Based on the Ada Lovelace GPU architecture, the L40 features third-generation RT Cores that enhance real-time ray tracing capabilities, and fourth-generation Tensor Cores with support for the FP8 data format to deliver over a petaflop of inferencing performance. These new features are combined with the latest generation CUDA Cores and 48GB of graphics memory to accelerate visual computing workload from high-performance virtual workstation instances to large-scale digital twins in NVIDIA Omniverse. With up to twice the performance of the previous generation at the same power, the NVIDIA L40 is uniquely suited to provide the visual computing power required by the modern data center.

NVIDIA Omniverse Enterprise

As the engine of NVIDIA® Omniverse™ Enterprise in the data center, the NVIDIA L40 brings powerful RTX and AI capabilities to power workloads like extended (XR) and virtual reality (VR) applications, design collaboration, and digital twins. For the most complex Omniverse workloads, the NVIDIA L40 enables accelerated ray-traced and path-traced rendering of materials, physically-accurate simulations, and generating photorealistic 3D synthetic data.

Rendering and 3D Graphics

Running professional 3D visualization applications with NVIDIA L40 enables creative professionals to iterate more, render faster, and unlock tremendous performance advantages that increase productivity and speed up project completion. Artists and designers can work in real-time with complex geometry and high-resolution textures to generate photorealistic designs and simulation to power high-fidelity creative workflows.

High-Performance Virtual Workstations

When combined with NVIDIA RTX™ Virtual Workstation (vWS) software (support coming in early 2023), the NVIDIA L40 delivers powerful virtual workstations from the data center or cloud to any device. Millions of creative and technical professionals can access the most demanding applications from anywhere with awe-inspiring performance that rivals physical workstations - all while meeting the need for greater security.

AI Training and Data Science

Powerful training and inference performance, combined with enterprise-class stability and reliability, make NVIDIA L40 the ideal platform for single-GPU AI training and development. The NVIDIA L40 reduces the time to completion for model training and development and data science data preparation workflows by delivering higher throughput and support for a full range of precisions, including FP8.

Streaming and Video Content

The NVIDIA L40 takes streaming and video content workloads to the next level with three video encode and three video decode engines. With the addition of AV1 encoding, the L40 delivers breakthrough performance and improved TCO for broadcast streaming, video production, and transcription workflows.
