Summary
About the NVIDIA Quadro P2000 GPU
The NVIDIA Quadro P2000 is an end-of-life workstation graphics card that released in Q1 2017. It is built on the Pascal GPU microarchitecture (codename GP106) and is manufactured on a 16 nm process.
Memory
The P2000 has 5 GB of GDDR5 memory, with a 1,752 MHz memory clock and a 160 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 140.2 Gb/s, which affects how fast it can transfer data to and from memory. GPU memory stores temporary data that helps the GPU with complex math and graphics operations. More memory is generally better, as not having enough can cause performance bottlenecks.
Cores and Clock Speeds
The P2000 includes 1,024 CUDA cores, the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 1,076 MHz and can dynamically boost its clock speed up to 1,480 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 64 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 40 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing.
Compatibility & Power Consumption
The P2000 is a compact, low-profile graphics card that fits into 1 PCIe expansion slot. It supports DisplayPort 1.4a display connections. NVIDIA recommends a power supply of at least 250 W to handle the GPU's thermal design power (TDP) of 75 W.
Benchmark Performance
The P2000 has the 221st best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 567 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 6.46% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090.
About the NVIDIA GeForce 945M GPU
The NVIDIA GeForce 945M is an end-of-life mobile graphics card that released in Q2 2016. It is built on the Maxwell GPU microarchitecture (codename GM108) and is manufactured on a 28 nm process.
Memory
The 945M has 1,024 MB of DDR3 memory, with a 1,001 MHz memory clock and a 64 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 16.02 Gb/s, which affects how fast it can transfer data to and from memory. GPU memory stores temporary data that helps the GPU with complex math and graphics operations. More memory is generally better, as not having enough can cause performance bottlenecks.
Cores and Clock Speeds
The 945M includes 384 CUDA cores, the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 1,006 MHz and can dynamically boost its clock speed up to 1,189 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 24 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 8 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing.
Compatibility & Power Consumption
The GPU has a thermal design power (TDP) of 23 W. A power supply not strong enough to handle this might result in system crashes and potentially damage your hardware.
Benchmark Performance
The 945M has the 313th best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 567 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 2.55% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090.
