Arc A350M vs Quadro P1000: Pros, Cons & Final Verdict

See where each GPU makes more sense in practice: raw FPS, VRAM, features, power draw, pricing, and long-term headroom.

Arc A350M

2022

Why buy it

  • 14.0% more average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
  • Better long-term bet: Generation 12.7 (2022−2023) on 6nm gives it a newer hardware base for upcoming games.
  • Draws 25W instead of 40W, a 15W reduction.

Trade-offs

  • Fewer clear downsides in this head-to-head, aside from the usual pricing and availability swings.

Quadro P1000

2017

Why buy it

  • Competitive enough if your priority is price, power, or specific feature preference.

Trade-offs

  • Lower average FPS than Arc A350M across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
  • 2017 hardware with 4 GB of VRAM is already well past its comfortable zone for modern gaming, so it is hard to recommend now.
  • 60% higher power demand at 40W vs 25W.

Quick Answers

Which GPU is faster for gaming right now?
Arc A350M is the faster gaming card right now. In our data, it leads by 14.0% in average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data and by 0.1% in PassMark G3D (4,500 vs 4,495), so the answer here is pretty clean.
Which GPU is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond?
Arc A350M is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond. The case is simple: a 6nm process instead of 14nm, 6 vs 0 ray-tracing units, and a newer 2022 generation instead of 2017. That gives it the more rounded hardware package for newer games.
Which GPU is the better buy today?
Arc A350M makes the most sense today based on the pricing and value data we have for this matchup.
