NVIDIA Quadro P620 vs NVIDIA Quadro P1000 vs NVIDIA Quadro P5000 Max-Q

NVIDIA Quadro P620

The Nvidia Quadro P620 is an entry-level mobile workstation graphics card for laptops. It uses a GP107 Pascal chip with a 128 Bit memory bus and therefore similar to the old Quadro P1000 with reduced clock speeds. Compared to consumer cards, there is no similar specified card currently and therefore the P620 slots in between the GeForce MX250 and GTX 1050. With a theoretical peak of 1.5 TFLOPS, the performance is clearly ahead of the old P600 with 1.2 TFLOPS.

The Quadro GPUs offer certified drivers, which are optimized for stability and performance in professional applications (CAD, DCC, medical, prospection, and visualizing applications). The performance in these areas is therefore much better compared to corresponding consumer GPUs.

NVIDIA Quadro P1000

The Nvidia Quadro P1000 is a mobile entry-level workstation graphics card for notebooks. Similar to the consumer GeForce GTX 1050 (Laptop), it is based on the GP107 chip but offers only 512 shaders (1050 offers 640, 1050 Ti 768). The graphics card is designed for the Kaby Lake / Coffee Lake generation.

The Quadro GPUs offer certified drivers, which are optimized for stability and performance in professional applications (CAD, DCC, medical, prospection, and visualizing applications). The performance in these areas is therefore much better compared to corresponding consumer GPUs.

Performance

The theoretical performance should be below the GeForce GTX 1050 due to the lower shader count.

NVIDIA Quadro P5000 Max-Q

The Nvidia Quadro P5000 Max-Q (official Nvidia Quadro P5000 with Max-Q Design) is a mobile high-end workstation graphics card for notebooks. It is the power efficient variant of the normal Quadro P5000 for laptops and offers slightly reduced clock speeds (1101 - 1366 MHz versus 1164 - 1506 MHz) and a greatly reduced power consumption (80 versus 100 Watt TGP). Similar to the consumer GeForce GTX 1070 Max-Q (Laptop), it is based on a slimmed-down GP104 chip with 2048 shaders. The graphics card is designed for the Kaby Lake generation. 

The Quadro GPUs offer certified drivers, which are optimized for stability and performance in professional applications (CAD, DCC, medical, prospection, and visualizing applications). The performance in these areas is therefore much better compared to corresponding consumer GPUs.

Performance

The theoretical performance should be slightly below the normal Quadro P4000 due to the reduced clock speeds.

Power Consumption

With an TGP of 80 Watt, the P5000 Max-Q is only slightly higher rated (5 Watt) as the much slower Quadro P3000 (75 Watt) and therefore similar sized laptops can use the P5000 Max-Q.
