The Nvidia Quadro P4200 is a mobile high-end workstation graphics card for notebooks. It is based on the GP104 chip (like the consumer GeForce GTX 1070 or 1080 for laptops) and features 2304 shader cores. The clock rate is not disclosed but the theoretical SP performance is rated at 8.9 TFLOPs (for the fast Max-P version) and therefore faster than the old Quadro P5000 but below the Quadro P5200 (see table below). The P4200 is equipped with 8 GB GDDR5 which leads to 224 GB7s peak bandwidth due to the 256 Bit memory bus. There are two variants available, a Max-P performance version and a Max-Q version tuned for efficiency (with lower clock speeds).
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.
Power Consumption
The power consumption of the Quadro P4200 is rated at 115 Watt TGP (max power consumption incl. memory) and therefore 15 Watt more than the Quadro P5000. The card is therefore best suited for large 17-inch notebooks.
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.
The Nvidia Quadro P4000 is a mobile high-end workstation graphics card for notebooks. There is currently no consumer counterpart and the GPU is sitting between the Quadro P3000 (GTX 1060) and Quadro P5000 (GTX 1070). It is equipped with 1792 shaders and should therefore use the same GP104 chip from the P5000 (2048 shaders). It has 8 GB GDDR-VRAM at the same bandwidth and has the similar 100-Watt TGP according to Nvidia.
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.
