Detailed specifications

General performance parameters such as number of shaders, GPU core base clock and boost clock speeds, manufacturing process, texturing and calculation speed. These parameters indirectly speak of performance, but for precise assessment you have to consider their benchmark and gaming test results. Note that power consumption of some graphics cards can well exceed their nominal TDP, especially when overclocked.

Pipelines / CUDA cores	3072	1920
Core clock speed	1620 MHz	600 - 870 MHz
Boost clock speed	1815 MHz	1215 - 1380 MHz
Number of transistors	13,600 million	10,800 million
Manufacturing process technology	12 nm	12 nm
Power consumption (TDP)	230 Watt	60 - 70 Watt

Form factor & compatibility

Information on Quadro RTX 5000 and Quadro RTX 3000 Max-Q 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). For notebook video cards it's notebook size, connection slot and bus, if the video card is inserted into a slot instead of being soldered to the notebook motherboard.
