About the NVIDIA Quadro P4000 GPU

The NVIDIA Quadro P4000 is an end-of-life workstation graphics card that released in Q1 2017 with a MSRP of $815. It is built on the Pascal GPU microarchitecture (codename GP104) and is manufactured on a 16 nm process.

Memory

The P4000 has 8 GB of GDDR5 memory, with a 1,901 MHz memory clock and a 256 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 243.3 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 P4000 includes 1,792 CUDA cores, the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 1,202 MHz and can dynamically boost its clock speed up to 1,480 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 112 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 64 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing.

Compatibility & Power Consumption

The P4000 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 300 W to handle the GPU's thermal design power (TDP) of 105 W.

Benchmark Performance & Value

The P4000 has the 142nd best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 543 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 14.75% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090. Its 15,433 score and $815 launch price (MSRP) gives it a performance per dollar of 18.94. This is the 88th best in value for the 3DMark 11 Performance GPU benchmark.

About the NVIDIA RTX 3000 Ada Generation Mobile GPU

The NVIDIA RTX 3000 Ada Generation Mobile is a mobile graphics card that launched in Q1 2023. It is built on the Ada Lovelace GPU microarchitecture (codename AD106) and is manufactured on a 5 nm process.

Memory

The RTX 3000 Ada Generation Mobile has 8 GB of GDDR6 memory, with a 2,000 MHz memory clock and a 128 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 256 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 RTX 3000 Ada Generation Mobile includes 4,608 CUDA cores, the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 1,395 MHz and can dynamically boost its clock speed up to 1,695 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 144 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 48 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing. Additionally, the GPU features 144 tensor cores optimized for AI-accelerated workloads and 36 RT cores dedicated to real-time ray tracing calculations.

Compatibility & Power Consumption

The GPU has a thermal design power (TDP) of 115 W. A power supply not strong enough to handle this might result in system crashes and potentially damage your hardware.

Benchmark Performance

The RTX 3000 Ada Generation Mobile has the 77th best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 543 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 28.12% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090.
