❌109.7% longer card at 304mm vs 145mm.

Quadro P620

2018

Why buy it

✅Costs $429 less on MSRP ($170 MSRP vs $599 MSRP).
✅Draws 40W instead of 200W, a 160W reduction.
✅Measures 145mm instead of 304mm, a 159mm shorter card that is more SFF-friendly.

Trade-offs

❌Lower PassMark G3D performance (3,698 vs 26,919).
❌Less VRAM, with 2 GB vs 12 GB for high-resolution textures and newer games.
❌No equivalent frame-generation stack like DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation (2023).
❌Poor future-proofing: 2018-era hardware with 2 GB of VRAM is already a legacy-tier option for modern games.
❌Lower G3D Mark per dollar, at 21.8 vs 44.9 G3D/$ ($170 MSRP vs $599 MSRP).

Quick Answers

So, is GeForce RTX 4070 better than Quadro P620?

Yes. GeForce RTX 4070 is clearly the better overall GPU here. You are also looking at 26,919 vs 3,698 in G3D Mark. On top of that, GeForce RTX 4070 is a 2023 card with DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation, while Quadro P620 is a 2018 model from an older generation with no meaningful modern upscaling stack. So this is not really a tight same-tier comparison. It is more a modern card against an older, weaker alternative.

Which one is more future-proof for 2026 and beyond?

GeForce RTX 4070 is the more future-proof choice for 2026 and beyond. You are getting a newer 2023 generation instead of 2018, 627.9% more raw performance headroom, more VRAM at 12 GB instead of 2 GB, and better upscaling support with DLSS 3.5 Super Resolution (2023) instead of no meaningful modern upscaling stack and better frame-generation support with DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation (2023) instead of no meaningful modern upscaling stack. That leaves it with more room for heavier textures, tougher ray tracing loads, and higher-end 1440p or 4K gaming over the next few years.

Which one is the smarter buy today, not just the cheaper card?

GeForce RTX 4070 is the smarter buy by a wide margin. GeForce RTX 4070 is about 252.4% more expensive on MSRP at $599 MSRP versus $170 MSRP, and you are getting 627.9% higher G3D Mark. Quadro P620 really only makes sense now as a very cheap stopgap or a used-market placeholder.

Is Quadro P620 still worth buying for gaming in 2026?

No, not for a fresh gaming build. Quadro P620 is 2018 hardware with 2 GB of VRAM, 3,698 in G3D Mark, and no meaningful modern upscaling stack. That is simply too far behind to be an easy modern recommendation.

Advanced Features (DLSS/FSR)

A critical advantage for the GeForce RTX 4070 is support for DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation. This allows it to generate entire frames using AI/Algorithms, essentially doubling the frame rate in CPU-bound scenarios or heavy ray-tracing titles. The Quadro P620 lacks specific hardware/driver support for this native frame generation tier.The GeForce RTX 4070 gives access to NVIDIA DLSS (Deep Learning Super Sampling), widely regarding as the superior upscaling method for image quality. The Quadro P620 relies on FSR (FidelityFX Super Resolution), which is capable but generally slightly noisier than DLSS in motion.
