How many FLOPs does one tensor_op_hmma instruction do?

I’m trying to get the FLOPs of a DNN model using nsight compute. If I don’t use tensorcore, I can count the ffma fmul fadd instructions to get the FLOPs. But if I use tensorcore, can I use the counter to calculate the FLOPs of the model?

Hi, @1055057679

You can refer below metrics to calculate FLOPs

ncu --query-metrics | grep sm__ops_

Hello,

I found your answer after having a very similar problem, and I would like to ask if these metrics are available in all GPUs, and if so, from what version of Nsight Compute, as in my current system RTX3080 with 2022.4 version of ncu I can’t find the metrics with the same command.
Thank you!

Hi, @diogo.s.matos

If you can’t find the metrics, that means not support.
So please get ncu latest version.
