NVIDIA Quadro P3000 vs NVIDIA Quadro P2000 Max-Q vs NVIDIA Quadro P3200

NVIDIA Quadro P3000

The Nvidia Quadro P3000 is a mobile high-end workstation graphics card for notebooks. Similar to the consumer GeForce GTX 1060 (Laptop), it is based on the GP106 chip with 1280 shaders. The graphics card is designed for the Kaby Lake generation and is the successor to the Quadro M3000M (Maxwell). However, the P3000 is equipped with 6 GB GDDR5 video memory (at a lower bandwidth), while GTX 1060 is available with 3 or 6 GB. The clock rates range from 1088 MHz (base) to 1215 MHz (typical Boost) to 1240 MHz (max.).

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 on par with the GTX 1060 (if the clocks did not take a massive hit), so the GPU should be significantly faster than the previous M3000M.

Power Consumption

The power consumption of the Quadro P3000 is 75 Watts TGP (including memory) or 55.3 W TDP according to Nvidia, so the card is suited for 15-inch notebooks or larger.

NVIDIA Quadro P2000 Max-Q

The Nvidia Quadro P2000 is a mobile mid-range workstation graphics card for notebooks. Similar to the consumer GeForce GTX 1050 Ti (Laptop), it is based on the GP107 chip with 768 shaders. Compared to the normal P2000, the Max-Q variant offers a lower clock speed at a reduced power consumption. 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 similar with the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti Max-Q.

NVIDIA Quadro P3200

The Nvidia Quadro P3200 is a mobile high-end workstation graphics card for notebooks. As the slightly faster Quadro P4000, it is based on the GP104 chip and uses 1792 CUDA cores. The memory bus however is slightly narrower at 192 versus 256 Bit. The clock rate should be similar, as Nvidia also specifies 5.3 TFLOPs of peak performance.

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 performance should be slightly below the older Quadro P4000, due to the same peak performance of the shaders but a slower memory bus. Compared to the old Quadro M3000M, the P3200 should offer a 93% better overall performance in SpecViewPerf 12.

Power Consumption

The power consumption of the Quadro P3200 is 75 Watts TGP (including memory)  and therefore similar to the Quadro P3000.
