NVIDIA Quadro P3200 vs NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 (Desktop) vs NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 Super (Desktop)

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.

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 (Desktop)

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 Super (Desktop)

The Nvidia GeForce GTX 1650 Super for desktops is an entry-level gaming graphics card based on the Turing architecture. The chip, which has been named TU116, was introduced in November 2019. The GTX 1650 series does not offer ray tracing and tensor cores, unlike the more powerful RTX 2000 cards (e.g. RTX 2060). Performance is slightly better than with the GeForce GTX 1650 and comparable with the AMD Radeon RX 5500 XT.

There have also been significant improvements in the Turing architecture in terms of the CUDA cores. Float and INT operations can now be executed simultaneously, the cache has been unified and improved, and Adaptive Shading has been introduced. As a result, Nvidia speaks of an up to 50% higher performance per core compared to Pascal.

The new entry-level card benefits from the advantages of the TU116 chip, since the newer NVENC video encoding delivers more performance compared to Pascal.

Nvidia specifies a power consumption of 100 watts TGP (Total Graphics Power) for the graphics card. The TU11 chip is manufactured by TSMC in a 12 nm FFN process.
