Quadro P4000 Max-Q vs Radeon RX 5300: 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 Max-Q

2017

Why buy it

✅28.7% more average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
✅33.3% more VRAM for high-resolution textures and newer games (4 GB vs 3 GB).

Trade-offs

❌No equivalent frame-generation stack like FSR Frame Generation (2023).
❌2017 hardware with 4 GB of VRAM already sits in legacy territory for modern games.
❌Lower G3D Mark per dollar, at 0 vs 59.0 G3D/$ (Unknown MSRP vs $129 MSRP).

Radeon RX 5300

2020

Why buy it

✅Delivers 100+% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 59.0 vs 0 G3D/$ ($129 MSRP vs Unknown MSRP).
✅Access to a newer frame-generation stack with FSR Frame Generation (2023).
✅Better long-term bet: RDNA 1.0 (2019−2020) on 7nm gives it a newer hardware base for upcoming games.

Trade-offs

❌Lower average FPS than Quadro P4000 Max-Q across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
❌Less VRAM, with 3 GB vs 4 GB for high-resolution textures and newer games.

Quick Answers

Which GPU is faster for gaming right now?

Quadro P4000 Max-Q is the faster gaming card right now. In our data, it leads by 28.7% in average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data. PassMark G3D leans toward Radeon RX 5300 instead at 7,606 vs 7,500, 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?

Radeon RX 5300 is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond. The case is simple: the newer feature stack, with FSR Upscaling / FSR 4 (2025) and FSR Frame Generation (2023), while Quadro P4000 Max-Q is limited to no meaningful modern upscaling stack and no comparable frame-generation support, a 7nm process instead of 16nm, and a newer 2020 generation instead of 2017. That makes it the less risky pick as game demands keep moving.

Which GPU is the better buy today?

Radeon RX 5300 makes the most sense today based on the pricing and value data we have for this matchup. Quadro P4000 Max-Q still makes more sense if max raw gaming performance matters more than value.
