hello good people, I'm interested in buying either a dell precision 7750 or 7760 with either Quadro RTX 3000 or A3000, I've read extensively about these two cards , I see the A3000 is somehow rich in some features but I'm heavily worried about the slow clock speed of 600mhz, I don't want to believe that maybe having more cuda cores can compensate for the slow clock speed, in terms of speed I'm leaning towards the rtx 3000 but I don't know of this route is suicidal since I'll also be leaving the tensor cores that are available in the A3000, I would want to settle for something that I won't regret picking since I'm treating this as an investment that will help me do heavy architectural drawings plus renderings, just this clock speed of 600mhz is reducing my morale for the A3000, I'll really appreciate your suggestions, Thanks
 
Both RTX 3000 and A3000 have a base clock of 600MHz and the boost clock differs by only 15MHz (1215MHz vs 1230MHz). The biggest difference is RTX 3000 has 2304 shaders and A3000 has 4096 more powerful ones.

RTX 3000 is Turing and has 288 tensor cores. A3000 is Ada which only has 128 tensor cores but they are up to 4x as fast as the Turing tensor cores.
