NVIDIA Quadro P4000

After 4 years of talking myself out of buying a Quadro - I finally broke down and selected this beautiful balance of OpenGL brilliance. The PASCAL series is excellent technology - but, I was shocked at the speed of this card. (Very smooth transitions - video capture/editing; excellent OpenGL support in rendering and simulation software). I'm currently test-driving the newest Blender software. I use Solid Edge / Works extensively (which I consider both a parametric-marvel) - and, I needed to get pass the ridiculous hang-ups that I was experiencing while working with large files with face sets during surface modeling (not always a memory issue!). In Solid Edge, I try to avoid using the Sweep command; I'll practice the 'built-in' face-set command and grab the face/profile of objects (which is excellent for piping systems and merging complex walls / boundaries). However, the GTX card's limited OpenGL functions are obvious after about the 50th face-set down the tree. My advanced files used to require that I disable the 'shaded with lines' command - because the lines (vectorization) require extensive OpenGL resources and memory (which causes the detail to suffer a little; bad stuff for surface modeling) Quadro is designed for accuracy, detail, and heavy vector calculation; GTX is designed for shooting things at 100 frames/second OpenGL support is premium - and, the Quadro card will unlock drivers (OpenCL) for those looking to develop their own software (i.e. Blender, 3Ds Max) INTEL 6700k (liquid cooled) ASUS Z170 Sabertooth Samsung Pro 950 (with Windows 10 Pro); make sure you have the latest Samsung NVMe drivers installed (Windows will install generic) 16GB DDR4 - 3000 MHz - Crucial Ballistix Elite memory (I used this stable and durable profile in all my systems) Nothing else really matters - this is a very efficient system with a Quadro Pascal card ***If you switch from GTX to Quadro - make sure you grab the Quadro drivers and make the appropriate settings in your software (OpenGL will need to be set manually in NVidia control panel) - beautiful things will unfold. Also, try to match your CPU and Memory speed to a synchronous value (i.e. 2133cpu & 2133memory) - ***UPDATE: synchronous is a reference to stability and accuracy of data - not normally associated with overclocking (in professional use)

For the money this is a really great card for Plex, Unraid, and H265 compression. It is 10X faster at codec encoding than a modern CPU alone.

Fast video processing.

Incredible! I'm not a techie when it comes to video cards, but the P4000 was able to run Minecraft + OptiFine + Wisdom Shaders with MAX settings on AMD Ryzen 7. What I understand is anti-aliasing and rendering (shadow and lighting) is resource intensive. The time it takes to render projects in AfterEffects, Blender, and SolidWorks has also been cut in half after upgrading from EVGA GeForce GTX 1060 3GB. For the price and performance, you really can't go wrong. The question comes down to if you need powerful graphics for what you do or do you want to save by buying a card that's not overkill and does what you need at a fraction of the cost. In my opinion, you can't go wrong with a high-end card that's future-proof for generations of games and apps in the future. Check out the Minecraft photos and videos with this Nvidia Quadro included.

Product from this vendor (IT Electronix) did not work although I've been very pleased by other NVIDIA and PNY equipment. I spent about 9 hours trying to get this graphics card to work but repeatedly got black screen and "No signal" on each monitor tested with it: I removed old device drivers using both Windows 10 and Wagnard DDU. I downloaded & installed the latest stable Nvidia drivers which work properly with another Quadro P4000 I have. After each installation attempt 2) This unit was sold as NEW by IT Electronix but appeared to be a resale: It came in an unmarked plastic bag not original retail box. There was no device driver software and no instructions. Some parts seemed to be missing or incorrect. Not worth 1 star.

This is as good of performance as can be had in a single-wide card. The card is pretty thin and nott too terribly long. The fan is very quiet. The card is highly configurable through the NVSMI. The PLL is very solid, locking fast and consistently to a myriad of clock frequencies. The performance for CUBLAS (CUDA Basic Linear Algebra System) is very impressive. While it is still not out performing my ancient K20 Tesla, it is close, and it is considerably smaller and quieter and considerably more efficient and versatile (can be used as a display card, a "Tesla compute 'cluster'"* or both. *(A confusing term NVidia uses for the operational mode -- TCC dedicates the card entirely to compute.)

Nice video card for a photoshoper, but far... astronomically far from being fast for 3ds max users. I do edit still images sometimes and use my Quadro computer basically for work with web application developing and regular stuff (no games). I do have to say that sometimes/rarely the display just blacks out and turns back on a few seconds later. The windows prompts "display driver stopped working" message, although I installed the latest driver. I find it absolutely unacceptable for $800 card. I never had it with my 970 card. But in any case, the next time I will be building a workstation, Nvidia will most likely be a pass for me.

I have owned the P4000 quadro since Feb 2018, bought from Amazon. I just installed it to a second motherboard, a Gigabyte X570 Master with the new PCIE 4.0 bandwidth. The prior motherboard was an Asus M5A99FX Pro 2.0. It is performing flawlessly powering three 32 inch 4K monitors from monoprice at max resolution. Beautiful, Beautiful, Beautiful! I use it mainly to run a trading platform called Think or Swim which has many small dots, squares, dashes, lines and numerous trading indicators, etc. The card works very well with windows 7 or windows 10 drivers but I just google " Nvidia P4000 drivers" and download and install and you will have more options with the Nvidia drivers. I wish all installations would be as easy as this card.

Very good product

I am a film editor. This graphics card smoothly renders 4k videos.

La tarjeta llego antes de la semana en un estado impecable. Si te dedicas a CAD, Video, Renders, producción VR y por que no... uno que otro jueguito esta monstruosidad es para ti. Lo único malo es que no cuenta con HDMI pero nada que un adaptador a cualquiera de sus cuatro Display Port no pueda solucionar. Es muy silenciosa y discreta en un gabinete ATX hasta este momento no me ha presentado ningún problema.

Parfait

très bon service, rapide. Très bonne carte vidéo, idéale pour de la CAO.
