Performance Analysis

The B200 delivers 2250 TFLOPS in FP16 dense mode and 75 TFLOPS in FP32 mode while the Quadro P4000 delivers 5.3 TFLOPS in FP32 mode. This FP16 dense figure on the B200 exceeds the FP32 figure on the Quadro P4000 by a wide margin and supports larger model training workloads through higher throughput. Memory bandwidth of 8000 GB/s on the B200 versus 243 GB/s on the Quadro P4000 allows greater batch sizes during inference and training sessions. The B200 also lists 4500 TFLOPS in FP8 dense mode and 9000 TFLOPS in FP8 with sparsity mode which further separate its capabilities from the Quadro P4000 where those metrics remain unpublished.

When to Choose the B200

The B200 suits large scale LLM training because its 2250 TFLOPS FP16 dense rating and 8000 GB/s bandwidth support extensive model sizes. Workloads requiring 180 to 192 GB HBM3e VRAM and NVLink interconnect also favor the B200 over alternatives with lower specifications.

When to Choose the Quadro P4000

The Quadro P4000 fits entry level scientific computing tasks because its 5.3 TFLOPS FP32 rating and 105W TDP allow operation in power constrained environments. Legacy PCIe 3.0 systems that cannot accommodate the 1000W TDP of newer cards also select the Quadro P4000.

How this page is made

  • Specifications come from the NVIDIA, AMD and Intel datasheets for the B200 and the Quadro P4000. Dense and sparse throughput are listed separately.
  • Prices and availability are live: every offer shown is an in-stock, on-demand listing from a provider we track, rechecked every minute.
  • The written comparison (overview, performance notes, when to choose each card, verdict, use cases and FAQ) was drafted with an AI model from the specification table above and passed an automated check that rejects any figure not in that table. It was last generated on . It contains no prices; those are always read live.
