Quadro P600: FPS benchmarks and laptop guide

The Quadro P600 is NVIDIA's 2017 entry professional GPU — small Pascal silicon for mainstream workstations, one rung above the P400 and two below the P1000. This guide covers its 16 benchmarked games at 1080p on the high preset and the 2 catalog models that carry it.

Where the Quadro P600 sits in 2026

A catalog score of 25.6 ranks it 182nd of 341 — just below the table's midpoint. The neighbors: the Iris Xe Graphics (27.4), Radeon RX 540 (27) and UHD Graphics 770 (26.8) above; the Radeon 8040S (25.5), Radeon Pro WX 3200 (25.2) and Iris Xe (25) below. An entry professional card ranking level with modern integrated graphics is the expected result — it was the certification, not the speed, that customers paid for.

What the chip brings

Pascal on 14nm, the GP107 die: 384 CUDA cores boosting to 1557MHz, 4GB of GDDR5 on a 128-bit bus with 64GB/s, a 40W envelope, 1.24 teraflops, CUDA support. Public benchmarks: PassMark 3335, Time Spy 1162, Fire Strike 4083, compute at 9759 (Vulkan) and 10588 (OpenCL). Solid display-and-compute hardware for CAD-class laptops of 2018.

FPS in games at 1080p

At the high preset: DOTA 2 at 81, Valorant at 80, Fortnite at 45, Counter-Strike 2 at 40, Battlefield 5 and Forza Horizon 4 at 35 each, The Witcher 3 at 25, Far Cry 5 and Forza Horizon 5 at 24 each. The bottom: Cyberpunk 2077 at 16, Metro Exodus at 16, the Resident Evil 4 remake at 14. Esports comfortably, mid-tier titles on medium — the standard entry-Quadro table.

Laptops that carry it

Two listings, both 2018 mobile workstations: the HP ZBook 15v G5 at $345 and Dell Precision 3530 at $357. Fleet medians: best-CPU 54.3, gaming index 33, mobility 28 — the graphics median equals this chip. These are the value workhorses of the P-generation: mainstream chassis, entry certified graphics, professional build.

Bottom line

The P600 is the sensible-shoes GPU of used workstations: enough for DOTA 2 at 81 and Valorant at 80, enough for the professional applications it was certified for, and no illusions beyond that. At $345-357 its two hosts are among the most accessible workstation buys in the catalog. Read the option row before paying — the same chassis offered stronger P-cards.
