GeForce RTX 2060 (Mobile) vs Quadro P4000: Pros, Cons & Final Verdict

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

GeForce RTX 2060 (Mobile)

2023

Why buy it

  • 24.8% more average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
  • Access to DLSS 2 Super Resolution (2020).
  • Better long-term bet: Ada Lovelace (2022−2024) on 5nm gives it a newer hardware base for upcoming games.

Trade-offs

  • Less VRAM, with 6 GB vs 8 GB for high-resolution textures and newer games.
  • Lower G3D Mark per dollar, at 0 vs 14.0 G3D/$ (Unknown MSRP vs $815 MSRP).

Quadro P4000

2017

Why buy it

  • Delivers 100+% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 14.0 vs 0 G3D/$ ($815 MSRP vs Unknown MSRP).
  • 33.3% more VRAM for high-resolution textures and newer games (8 GB vs 6 GB).

Trade-offs

  • Lower average FPS than GeForce RTX 2060 (Mobile) across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
  • No DLSS support; it relies on Upscaling support instead.
  • 2017 hardware with 8 GB of VRAM already sits in legacy territory for modern games.

Quick Answers

Which GPU is faster for gaming right now?
GeForce RTX 2060 (Mobile) is the faster gaming card right now. In our data, it leads by 24.8% in average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data. PassMark G3D leans toward Quadro P4000 instead at 11,431 vs 11,353, so for this question the real-game FPS result matters more than the synthetic split.
Which GPU is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond?
GeForce RTX 2060 (Mobile) is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond. The case is simple: the newer upscaling stack, DLSS 2 Super Resolution (2020) instead of no meaningful modern upscaling stack, a 5nm process instead of 16nm, 24 vs 0 ray-tracing units, and a newer 2023 generation instead of 2017. That gives it the more rounded hardware package for newer games.
Which GPU is the better buy today?
Quadro P4000 makes the most sense today based on the pricing and value data we have for this matchup. If you are mainly targeting 1080p and some 1440p, Quadro P4000 is the easier value choice. If you care more about 1080p and some 1440p headroom, GeForce RTX 2060 (Mobile) has the stronger long-term case.
