Analysis: NVIDIA Quadro P2200 vs NVIDIA TITAN V CEO Edition
The NVIDIA TITAN V CEO Edition and NVIDIA Quadro P2200 occupy very different corners of the GPU market, and the benchmark data reflects that chasm. The TITAN V CEO Edition is a monolithic compute powerhouse, while the Quadro P2200 is a modest, efficient workstation card. In the direct head-to-head benchmarks available, the TITAN V CEO Edition wins both tests decisively. In Passmark G3D, the TITAN V CEO Edition scores 16988 against the Quadro P2200's 9364, a massive 81.4% advantage. Even in the less demanding Passmark G2D test, the TITAN V CEO Edition leads with 1086 points versus 881 points, a 23.3% gap. The data leaves no ambiguity about which card is faster in raw rendering and general 3D performance.
Head-to-Head Benchmarks
The single most important number in this comparison is the Passmark G3D score. The TITAN V CEO Edition's 16988 points is not just a win; it is a dominant one. The 81.4% delta over the Quadro P2200's 9364 points means that in GPU-bound 3D workloads, the TITAN V CEO Edition is nearly twice as fast. This is the kind of margin that translates directly into significantly higher frame rates in professional viewport applications or faster render times in any 3D pipeline. The Quadro P2200 is not a slow card in absolute terms—its score is within 1.5% of the Intel Arc A380 and 1.1% ahead of the AMD FirePro W5170M—but it is in a completely different performance class than the TITAN V CEO Edition.
The Passmark G2D test, which measures 2D graphics and desktop compositing performance, also favors the TITAN V CEO Edition, though by a smaller margin. The TITAN V CEO Edition scores 1086, while the Quadro P2200 scores 881. The 23.3% delta here is substantial but not as overwhelming as the G3D result. For everyday desktop use, spreadsheet manipulation, or 2D CAD work, the difference will be perceptible but not night-and-day. The TITAN V CEO Edition's advantage in this test likely stems from its significantly larger memory bandwidth and higher pixel fill rate, which are detailed in the specification differences below. It is notably the Quadro P2200's G2D score of 881 is still respectable, placing it in line with many mid-range consumer cards. However, the TITAN V CEO Edition's 1086 score is a clear step up.
Looking at the broader benchmark picture, the TITAN V CEO Edition's average benchmark score is 9037, which places its nearest rivals as the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 (9022, a 0.2% difference) and the AMD Radeon 550X (8918, a 1.3% difference). This is a peculiar situation: the TITAN V CEO Edition's average score is dragged down by the Passmark G2D test, which carries less weight in the average calculation than G3D but still impacts it. The Quadro P2200, with an average score of 8686, sits near the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460 v2 (8743, -0.7%) and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 A Mobile (8746, -0.7%). The TITAN V CEO Edition's average score is 4.0% higher than the Quadro P2200's average, but the G3D test shows a much larger gap. This discrepancy highlights that the average score is a blended metric, and for actual 3D performance, the head-to-head G3D result is the more reliable indicator. The TITAN V CEO Edition's Passmark G3D score of 16988 is in an entirely different league than its average score might suggest, indicating that its 3D performance is its primary strength.
Architecture Differences
The two cards are built on fundamentally different architectures from different generations. The TITAN V CEO Edition uses the GV100 chip based on the Volta architecture, manufactured on a 12 nm process at TSMC. This is a massive chip, containing 21,100 million transistors on an 815 mm² die. In contrast, the Quadro P2200 uses the GP106 chip based on the older Pascal architecture, also from TSMC but on a 16 nm process. The GP106 is a much smaller chip, with 4,400 million transistors on a 200 mm² die. The transistor density tells the story of the process node advantage: the Volta chip achieves 25.9 million transistors per square millimeter, while the Pascal chip achieves 22.0 million. This is a significant architectural leap, not just a die-size difference.
The compute resources are vastly different. The TITAN V CEO Edition has 5120 shading units, 320 texture mapping units, and 128 ROPs. It also includes 640 tensor cores, which are dedicated hardware for deep learning and AI workloads—a feature entirely absent from the Quadro P2200. The Quadro P2200 has 1280 shading units, 80 TMUs, and 40 ROPs. This is a 4:1 ratio in shading units, which directly explains the massive FP32 performance gap: the TITAN V CEO Edition delivers 14.90 TFLOPS of FP32 compute, while the Quadro P2200 manages only 3.822 TFLOPS. The FP16 performance is even more lopsided. The TITAN V CEO Edition delivers 29.80 TFLOPS of FP16 (at a 2:1 ratio), while the Quadro P2200 offers a paltry 59.72 GFLOPS (at a 1:64 ratio). This means the TITAN V CEO Edition is roughly 500 times faster in FP16 workloads, making it a far superior choice for any AI or machine learning inference tasks that can utilize FP16.
Memory architecture is another fundamental split. The TITAN V CEO Edition uses 32 GB of HBM2 memory on a 4096-bit bus, providing 868.4 GB/s of bandwidth. The Quadro P2200 uses 5 GB of GDDR5X memory on a 160-bit bus, providing 200.2 GB/s. The TITAN V CEO Edition has over 4 times the memory capacity and over 4 times the bandwidth. This makes the TITAN V CEO Edition suitable for large datasets and high-resolution textures that would completely saturate the Quadro P2200's memory subsystem. The clock speeds also differ, with the TITAN V CEO Edition boosting to 1455 MHz and the Quadro P2200 boosting slightly higher to 1493 MHz, but the Quadro's higher clock cannot compensate for its far fewer cores.
The Verdict
The data is unambiguous: the NVIDIA TITAN V CEO Edition is the superior performer in every benchmark category where both cards were tested. It wins the Passmark G3D test by 81.4% and the Passmark G2D test by 23.3%. Its architecture is newer, its compute capabilities are orders of magnitude higher, and its memory subsystem is vastly larger and faster. The TITAN V CEO Edition is the clear choice for anyone whose primary concern is raw 3D rendering performance, compute-intensive tasks like deep learning, or working with massive datasets that require more than 5 GB of VRAM.
However, the Quadro P2200 is not without merit. It is a single-slot card with a 75 W TDP, which means it requires no external power connectors and can run on a 250 W power supply. The TITAN V CEO Edition, by contrast, is a dual-slot card with a 250 W TDP, requiring a 1x 6-pin and 1x 8-pin power connector and a 600 W power supply. For a system builder with space and power constraints, the Quadro P2200 is a practical option. It also offers 4x DisplayPort 1.4a outputs, while the TITAN V CEO Edition offers 1x HDMI 2.0 and 3x DisplayPort 1.4a. For multi-monitor setups, the Quadro P2200's four DisplayPort outputs may be more convenient. The choice comes down to whether raw performance or physical form factor and power efficiency are the priority. For professional workstations that need maximum compute power, the TITAN V CEO Edition is the only logical choice from this data.

Where Each One Wins
The NVIDIA TITAN V CEO Edition wins in every benchmark category measured in the FACT PACK, but its advantages are most pronounced in specific scenarios. For 3D rendering, animation, and heavy GPU compute tasks, the TITAN V CEO Edition is the overwhelming choice. Its 81.4% lead in the Passmark G3D test means that any application that is even partially GPU-accelerated will see massive performance gains. The 32 GB of HBM2 memory is a crucial advantage for tasks like training large neural networks, processing high-resolution medical imaging, or working with 8K video textures—workloads that would exhaust the Quadro P2200's 5 GB memory. The FP16 capability, which is 29.80 TFLOPS versus 59.72 GFLOPS, makes the TITAN V CEO Edition the only viable option for mixed-precision compute workloads.
The Quadro P2200's wins are not in performance but in practicality. Its single-slot design and 75 W TDP make it ideal for dense multi-GPU server configurations where space is at a premium. The lack of external power connectors simplifies installation in pre-built workstations. The 4x DisplayPort 1.4a outputs are a clear advantage for driving four monitors simultaneously without adapters, whereas the TITAN V CEO Edition offers only three DisplayPort outputs. For 2D CAD drafting or basic office productivity, the Quadro P2200's Passmark G2D score of 881 is perfectly adequate, though still 23.3% behind the TITAN V CEO Edition. The Quadro P2200 also has a lower suggested PSU requirement of 250 W, which makes it compatible with a much wider range of power supplies, especially in compact or older systems. If the workload is light and the physical constraints are strict, the Quadro P2200 is the sensible pick; otherwise, the TITAN V CEO Edition's performance lead is too large to ignore.
