NVIDIA Quadro K5000: specs and benchmarks

NVIDIA started Quadro K5000 sales 17 August 2012 at a recommended price of $2,499. This is Kepler architecture desktop card based on 28 nm manufacturing process and primarily aimed at designers. 4 GB of GDDR5 memory clocked at 5.4 GHz are supplied, and together with 256 Bit memory interface this creates a bandwidth of 172.8 GB / s.

Compatibility-wise, this is 2-slot card attached via PCIe 2.0 x16 interface. Its manufacturer default version has a length of 267 mm. 1x 6-pin power connector is required, and power consumption is at 122 Watt.

It provides poor gaming and benchmark performance at 9.58 percent of a leader's which is NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 SLI Mobile.

Of Quadro K5000's architecture, market type and release date.

Quadro K5000's general performance parameters such as number of shaders, GPU core clock, manufacturing process, texturing and calculation speed. These parameters indirectly speak of Quadro K5000's performance, but for precise assessment you have to consider its benchmark and gaming test results.

Information on Quadro K5000's compatibility with other computer components. Useful when choosing a future computer configuration or upgrading an existing one. For desktop video cards it's interface and bus (motherboard compatibility), additional power connectors (power supply compatibility).

Parameters of memory installed on Quadro K5000: its type, size, bus, clock and resulting bandwidth. Note that GPUs integrated into processors don't have dedicated memory and use a shared part of system RAM.

Types and number of video connectors present on Quadro K5000.

APIs supported by Quadro K5000, sometimes including their particular versions.

Non-gaming benchmarks performance of Quadro K5000. Note that overall benchmark performance is measured in points in 0-100 range.

Cryptocurrency mining performance of Quadro K5000. Usually measured in megahashes per second.

Let's see how good Quadro K5000 is for gaming. Particular gaming benchmark results are measured in FPS. Comparisons with system requirements are included, but remember that sometimes official requirements may reflect real performance inaccurately.
