Quadro M620: FPS benchmarks and laptop guide

Quadro M620 — 16 games benchmarked at 1080p, 3 models in the catalog.

Quadro M620 — 16 games benchmarked at 1080p , 3 laptop models in the used-laptop catalog . This guide covers what the chip delivers in games, where it sits among mobile GPUs in 2026, and which laptops carry it.

The Quadro M620 is a 30W Maxwell professional GPU — the certified-graphics option for thin and mobile workstations of 2016-2017. This guide covers its 16 benchmarked games at 1080p on the high preset and the 3 catalog models that carry it.

Where the Quadro M620 sits in 2026

A catalog score of 18.4 ranks it 216th of 341 — below the table's midpoint. The neighbors: the Vega 10 Graphics (18.6), Radeon 840M (18.5) and its ladder-sibling Quadro M1200 (18.4) above; the GTX 850M (18.2), Radeon Vega 8 (17.6) and MX230 (17) below. Ranking among 2014-2018 mid-tier discretes and modern entry iGPUs is fair for a power-sipped professional part.

What the chip brings

Maxwell architecture on 28nm, the efficient GM107 die: 512 CUDA cores at up to 1018MHz, 2GB of GDDR5 on a 128-bit bus with 80GB/s, a 30W envelope and 1 teraflop peak. Public benchmarks: PassMark 2752, Time Spy 862, Fire Strike 3130, compute at 6652 (Vulkan) and 8129 (OpenCL). The pitch was simple: certified drivers inside machines too thin for the 100W professional cards.

FPS in games at 1080p

At the high preset: Valorant at 70, DOTA 2 at 50, Fortnite at 40, Counter-Strike 2 at 30, Forza Horizon 4 at 30, Battlefield 5 at 27, Far Cry 5 at 21, Forza Horizon 5 at 20, The Witcher 3 at 19. The bottom: Cyberpunk 2077 and Metro Exodus at 12, the Resident Evil 4 remake at 10. Esports titles run genuinely well; the heavy tier is out of reach — the standard 30W compromise.

Laptops that carry it

Three listings, all genuine professional hosts: the HP ZBook x2 G4 (2017) at $385 — the detachable-tablet workstation, the most unusual host in this batch — plus the Lenovo ThinkPad P71 (2017) at $532 and Dell Precision 3520 (2016) at $246. Fleet medians: best-CPU 49.4, gaming index 30, mobility 20, with the graphics median equal to this chip. Three different form factors, one certified 30W GPU.

Bottom line

The M620 is the thin-workstation workhorse of its generation: certified drivers, modest heat, and an esports-capable game table as a side effect. Its host machines — including the rare ZBook x2 detachable — are characterful used buys at $246-532. Expect Valorant and DOTA 2 at high, expect nothing modern, and the deal is honest.
