About the NVIDIA Quadro P5000 GPU

The NVIDIA Quadro P5000 is an end-of-life workstation graphics card that released in Q4 2016 with a MSRP of $2,499. It is built on the Pascal GPU microarchitecture (codename GP104) and is manufactured on a 16 nm process.

Memory

The P5000 has 16 GB of GDDR5X memory, with a 1,127 MHz memory clock and a 256 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 288.5 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 P5000 includes 2,560 CUDA cores, the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 1,607 MHz and can dynamically boost its clock speed up to 1,733 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 160 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 64 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing.

Compatibility & Power Consumption

The P5000 occupies 2 PCIe expansion slots. It supports DVI, DisplayPort 1.4a display connections. NVIDIA recommends a power supply of at least 450 W to handle the GPU's thermal design power (TDP) of 180 W.

Benchmark Performance & Value

The P5000 has the 111th best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 543 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 19.21% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090. Its 20,096 score and $2,499 launch price (MSRP) gives it a performance per dollar of 8.04. This is the 102nd best in value for the 3DMark 11 Performance GPU benchmark.

About the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 470 GPU

The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 470 is an end-of-life desktop graphics card that released in Q1 2010 with a MSRP of $349. It is built on the Fermi GPU microarchitecture (codename GF100) and is manufactured on a 40 nm process.

Memory

The GTX 470 has 1,280 MB of GDDR5 memory, with a 837 MHz memory clock and a 320 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 133.9 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 GTX 470 includes 448 CUDA cores, the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 607 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 56 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 40 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing.

Compatibility & Power Consumption

The GTX 470 occupies 2 PCIe expansion slots. It supports DVI, mini-HDMI 1.3a display connections. NVIDIA recommends a power supply of at least 550 W to handle the GPU's thermal design power (TDP) of 215 W.

Benchmark Performance & Value

The GTX 470 has the 266th best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 543 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 4.15% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090. Its 4,342 score and $349 launch price (MSRP) gives it a performance per dollar of 12.44. This is the 94th best in value for the 3DMark 11 Performance GPU benchmark.
