Mobile workstation on the go: PNY PREVAILPRO P4000 in test

Today's PREVAILPRO P4000 is marketed by PNY as a mobile workstation and therefore also sorts itself in the relevant price segment above 4500 Euros and will be available directly in Germany in the foreseeable future.... Opening your notebook What would a notebook review be without Tear Down? On the one hand, the manufacturer does not list all components in detail (e.g. we lacked the exact information about the memory and the installed SSD) and on the other hand needed... System setup What do you actually compare to a mobile workstation, which is actually a normal consumer notebook with additional integrated, mobile Quadro graphics? The built-in Intel Core i7-7700HQ does not support ECC memory and a... Let's combine both CPU workload and real-time 3D graphics output. The emphasis is very balanced on both, as can be seen from the results, in which the actually nominally faster Quadro P4000 Max-Q all too often the afterlife... But we also don't want to be unfair and now we're still questioning what would happen if the Quadro P4000 Max-Q were to operate almost unchecked in the notebook. Then the dedicated Quadro P2000 has in part clearly changed the afterlife. Power consumption The power consumption differs very significantly during mains and battery operation. However, due to the lack of real modification options on the device, we can only measure primarily between the socket and the power supply on the primary side, we remain... Temperatures and clock rates The actual performance does not result from the ideal data of the specifications, but on what can be achieved in the real and warmed-up state of the CPU and GPU. That this is also the... PNY has done almost everything right with the PREVAILPRO P4000 Max-Q. The mobile Quadro P4000 in the Max-Q design harmonizes perfectly with the Intel Core i7-7700HQ. It is true that Kaby Lake as an architecture is no longer the very last s...

Let's combine both CPU workload and real-time 3D graphics output. The emphasis is very balanced on both, as can be seen from the results, where the actually nominally faster Quadro P4000 Max-Q all too often has the backing against the dedicated Quadro P2000, which can also fully boost.

Let's start with Solidworks 2015 in this section and look at both the GPU composite and three sub-composite stakes selected by us.

The same picture is obtained from Creo 3.0 from PTC. The poorer CPU performance pushes down the actually faster graphics unit in the overall result.

But even with Adobe's Creative Cloud, the CPU influence is unfortunately the dominant factor, which prevents a better performance of the Quadro P4000 Max-Q.

In the following benchmark, the graphics output dominates visually at first glance, but we also register a very high CPU usage on only one thread. This circumstance is again reflected in the result, because the notebook in turn has the aftermath.
