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.

Quadro P4000 (móvel) vs T1000: Pros, Cons & Final Verdict

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

Quadro P4000 (móvel)

2017

Why buy it

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

Trade-offs

  • 2017 hardware with 4 GB of VRAM already sits in legacy territory for modern games.
  • 134% HIGHER MSRP
    $819 MSRPvs$350 MSRP
  • Lower G3D Mark per dollar, at 9.2 vs 21.9 G3D/$ ($819 MSRP vs $350 MSRP).
  • 100% higher power demand at 100W vs 50W.

T1000

2021

Why buy it

  • Costs $469 less on MSRP ($350 MSRP vs $819 MSRP).
  • Delivers 138.6% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 21.9 vs 9.2 G3D/$ ($350 MSRP vs $819 MSRP).
  • Better long-term bet: Turing (2018−2022) on 12nm gives it a newer hardware base for upcoming games.
  • Draws 50W instead of 100W, a 50W reduction.

Trade-offs

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

Quick Answers

Which GPU is faster for gaming right now?
T1000 is the faster gaming card right now based on the synthetic data we have. It leads by 2% in PassMark G3D (7,649 vs 7,500), which is the best performance signal available in this matchup.
Which GPU is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond?
T1000 is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond. The case is simple: a 12nm process instead of 16nm and a newer 2021 generation instead of 2017. That makes it the less risky pick as game demands keep moving.
Which GPU is the better buy today?
T1000 makes the most sense to buy today. It is $469 cheaper on MSRP at $350 vs $819, and it leads G3D-per-dollar by 138.6% (21.9 vs 9.2), so the value case lines up with the gaming result.
