P104-100 vs Quadro P620 Performance Spectrum

About G3D Mark

G3D Mark is a standard benchmark that measures graphics performance in real-world gaming scenarios. It simplifies comparing cards from different brands, where higher scores directly correlate with better fps and smoother gaming experiences.

P104-100 vs Quadro P620: Pros, Cons & Final Verdict

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

P104-100

2017

Why buy it

  • Draws 30W instead of 40W, a 10W reduction.

Trade-offs

  • 2017 hardware with 2 GB of VRAM is already well past its comfortable zone for modern gaming, so it is hard to recommend now.
  • Lower G3D Mark per dollar, at 0 vs 21.8 G3D/$ (Unknown MSRP vs $170 MSRP).

Quadro P620

2018

Why buy it

  • Delivers 100+% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 21.8 vs 0 G3D/$ ($170 MSRP vs Unknown MSRP).
  • P104-100 is already obsolete for modern gaming, so Quadro P620 is the less risky modern option long term.
  • More future proof: Pascal (2016−2021) on 14nm with a newer platform for upcoming games.

Trade-offs

  • 2018 hardware with 2 GB of VRAM already sits in legacy territory for modern games.
  • 33.3% higher power demand at 40W vs 30W.

Quick Answers

Which GPU is faster for gaming right now?
Quadro P620 is the faster gaming card right now based on the synthetic data we have. It leads by 0.5% in PassMark G3D (3,698 vs 3,678), which is the best performance signal available in this matchup.
Which GPU is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond?
Quadro P620 is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond. The case is simple: a 14nm process instead of 16nm and a newer 2018 generation instead of 2017. That makes it the less risky pick as game demands keep moving.
