Quadro RTX 3000: FPS benchmarks and laptop guide

The Quadro RTX 3000 (Laptop) was the volume Turing professional GPU of 2019 — the chip that filled a generation of Precisions, ZBooks and ThinkPads. This catalog tracks 74 models matching its name. One caution before the numbers: that roster spans several generations of "RTX 3000"-branded parts, so read the laptop list with the scoping note below. 16 games are benchmarked at 1080p.

Where the Quadro RTX 3000 sits in 2026

The composite score of 53.5 ranks #109 of 341 — between the Quadro P3200 Max-Q (54.2), Quadro P4200 (54.1) and Apple M1 Ultra (54.1) above, and the GTX 1650 (53.3), Quadro P3200 (53.2) and Apple M3 Max (52.6) below. A Max-Q sibling record sits lower at #117. Solid mid-table company for a chip that remains a workstation staple.

What the chip brings

The record lists 6 GB of GDDR6, an 80 W envelope and a 12 nm Turing process. Public entries: PassMark 10,116 and Time Spy 5,589. CUDA and DLSS are both supported — one of the earliest pro lines to carry DLSS.

FPS in games at 1080p

At the high preset: CS:GO and Overwatch at 240, Valorant at 160, GTA V and PUBG at 140, Dota 2 at 132, Counter-Strike 2 at 130, Fortnite at 120, The Witcher 3 at 109, Battlefield 5 and Forza Horizon 4 at 95, Far Cry 5 at 80, Forza Horizon 5 at 75, then the heavy trio — Resident Evil 4 Remake and Metro Exodus at 55 and Cyberpunk 2077 at 50. Most of the table is comfortable; the heaviest rows sit right at the playability line.

Laptops that carry it — or the name

The 74-model roster needs honest scoping: the top of the list (Dell Pro Precision 7 16, HP ZBook X G2i, ThinkPad P16 Gen 3, ZBook Fury G1i — 2025–2026 machines) cannot physically carry a 2019 Turing chip; those listings name-match because their GPUs also answer to "RTX 3000"-style names. The era-consistent hosts are the 2024-and-earlier entries: Dell Precision 5490, HP ZBook Studio 16 G11 and Power 16 G11, ThinkPad P1 Gen 7 — and earlier still, the Precision 7530/7540 and ZBook Studio G5-G7 generation this chip actually shipped in. The roster is a browsing aid across name-matched generations, not a census of Turing hosts; roster medians (best GPU 66.9, above the chip's own 53.5) reflect the newer machines mixed in.

Bottom line

The RTX 3000 remains a sensible used-workstation pick: DLSS support, certified drivers, esports at high frame rates and a mostly-60+ table at 1080p high (drop settings for the heaviest three titles). When shopping the roster, verify the GPU generation on the listing — "RTX 3000" spans Turing and later branding. The game table on this page is the Turing one, and it holds up well.
