Quadro RTX 3000 vs RTX A4000 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the RTX A4000 GPU is faster than the Quadro RTX 3000 in gaming.

The Quadro RTX 3000 has a slightly higher core clock speed. This is the frequency at which the graphics core is running at. While not necessarily an indicator of overall performance, this metric can be useful when comparing two GPUs based on the same architecture.

Furthermore, the spec sheet for both these GPUs show that the RTX A4000 has significantly more memory with 16 GiB of memory compared to 6 GiB. If you're planning at playing games at high resolutions with high-quality textures, you will need a lot of memory.

In addition, the Quadro RTX 3000 has a significantly lower TDP at 80 W when compared to the RTX A4000 at 140 W. Heat output doesn't match power consumption directly but, it's a good estimate.

In terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the RTX A4000 is better than the Quadro RTX 3000.
