PNY NVIDIA Quadro P2000 4x DP 5 GB GDDR5 PCI Express Professional Graphic Card - Black

Product Information

HTC Vive: Getting up and running Our experience of working with HTC Vive and how to avoid common mistakes While the Quadro P2000 is still considered a 3D CAD card at heart, the potential performance increases in CPU limited SolidWorks and Revit workflows, are unlikely to get your average CAD modeller begging for an upgrade. Why buy a Ferrari if you’re only allowed to drive it on London’s M25? In the lead up to today’s launch Nvidia provided us with a sample Quadro P2000 and Quadro P4000 for review. As always, we tested these GPUs with real world professional design, engineering, and visualisation applications. As part of the testing we also got hands-on with several new generation pro VR tools using the HTC Vive Business Edition, a special enterprise version of the impressive Head Mounted Display (HMD). did not recreate cache, as it is less than 5 days old!

While we would expect to see similar patterns with other CAD software, some may be less CPU limited than others. In those cases, more powerful GPUs may give additional benefits.

At these higher resolutions, on-board memory also becomes more important. In the past, the biggest memory footprint we have seen from a single model at 4K is 4,731MB in VRED Professional with AA set to ultra-high. Nvidia has added some worthy successors to its ‘Maxwell’ family of professional Quadro GPUs. The Quadro P2000 has the potential to deliver huge performance increases over its predecessors, the Quadro M2000 and Quadro K2200. However, as our tests show, this does depend on your workflow.

All five models will be available in March and will replace the current ‘Maxwell’ Quadro GPUs. (see chart above for full specifications and prices – US prices have not yet been set).

With an emphasis on visual quality, most design viz tools place a huge load on the GPU and, as a result, are much less (if at all) ‘CPU limited’ compared to CAD applications. GPU rendering works almost entirely independently of the CPU, which means it can take full advantage of the power on offer. However, just because a GPU gets the VRMark stamp of approval and is considered ‘VR Ready’, it does not necessarily mean it will work with all professional VR applications and workflows. Looking at drawtime, the P2000 measured in at 6.492 seconds, which was just slightly higher than the older generation M2000 (which posted 6.262 seconds). The P1000 recorded a moderately better score of 6.412 seconds. In average FPS, the P2000 posted an average of 460.94 FPS, while showing a minimum FPS of 202.78. This was noticeably better than the P1000, which posted an average of 342.25 FPS and minimum FPS of 187.16 FPS. The M2000 had significantly lower results with 273.51 FPS and 160.51 FPS, respectively. ESRI Benchmark Iray is also embedded inside several applications including SolidWorks Visualize, Siemens NX Ray Traced Studio, Catia Live rendering and Lumiscaphe. Chaos Group also offers a GPU-accelerated version of its popular physically-based renderer, V-Ray, called V-Ray RT, which plugs into Revit, Rhino, SketchUp, 3ds Max and others. Quadro GPUs can also be used to accelerate the OpenCL-based Radeon Pro Render from AMD.Today the company has fleshed out its entire ‘Pascal’ Quadro family with five new cards to cater for all types of workstation users – from entry-level CAD to pro VR Release 378 is a Quadro New Feature (QNF) driver. This driver is from the most recent driver release branch from NVIDIA, and contains the latest new features and functionality. It has been tested for workstation environments, and is recommended only for those users who need specific features mentioned in the release highlights or release notes. In terms of professional VR applications, we looked at the architecturally-focused Autodesk LIVE 1.6, Iris VR Prospect 1.1 and Enscape 1.82; 3D modelling / sketch tool Gravity Sketch (beta); product design / automotive visualisation application Autodesk VRED Professional 2017 SP1 and CAD file viewer PiXYZ Review (beta). it should deliver the goods in a much wider range of professional VR workflows. However, while US pricing is still to be confirmed, from the UK pricing we have seen, it looks like it will cost considerably more.
