Performance Analysis
The Quadro RTX 4000 supplies 57 TFLOPS FP16 dense while the Quadro P5000 lists no FP16 figure from the vendor. FP32 performance shows 8.9 TFLOPS on the Quadro P5000 against 7.1 TFLOPS on the Quadro RTX 4000. The higher dense FP16 rating on the Quadro RTX 4000 supports faster matrix operations in training and inference compared with FP32 only paths. Memory bandwidth of 416 GB per second on the Quadro RTX 4000 versus 288 GB per second on the Quadro P5000 allows larger batch sizes before memory becomes the limit. The 125 watt TDP on the Quadro RTX 4000 versus 180 watts on the Quadro P5000 reduces system power requirements while maintaining the listed performance figures.

When to Choose the Quadro P5000
The Quadro P5000 suits workloads that require 16 GB GDDR5X VRAM for larger datasets that exceed 8 GB capacity. Its 8.9 TFLOPS FP32 rating provides an advantage in FP32 heavy scientific computing tasks where FP16 dense figures remain unavailable from the vendor.
When to Choose the Quadro RTX 4000
Its 125 watt TDP and 7.1 TFLOPS FP32 rating deliver lower power use in sustained inference and fine tuning sessions.
Use Cases
The 57 TFLOPS FP16 dense rating supports faster training iterations than the unavailable FP16 figure on the Quadro P5000.
The 416 GB per second bandwidth and 57 TFLOPS FP16 dense allow higher throughput than the 288 GB per second and FP32 only path of the Quadro P5000.
Lower 125 watt TDP combined with 57 TFLOPS FP16 dense reduces energy cost during extended fine tuning runs versus the 180 watt Quadro P5000.
The 16 GB GDDR5X VRAM accommodates larger image batches that exceed the 8 GB limit of the Quadro RTX 4000.
The 8.9 TFLOPS FP32 rating exceeds the 7.1 TFLOPS FP32 of the Quadro RTX 4000 for pure FP32 workloads.
