PNY Technologies, Inc. Quadro K5000 MAC 4GB GDDR5 workstation graphics card

SKU CH-RGBB-7ZAQ8

Workstation graphics card with 4 GB GDDR5 memory and 1536 CUDA cores for Mac Pro systems

  • Memory TypeGDDR5
  • 4 GB GDDR5 memory handles large textures and models
  • 1536 CUDA cores accelerate professional compute workloads
  • 1 Teraflops single-precision performance speeds rendering tasks
  • 173 GB/s memory bandwidth feeds data to the GPU quickly
  • Four display outputs drive multiple high-resolution monitors

Mac Workstation GPU

The PNY Quadro K5000 MAC is a Kepler-based workstation graphics card with 4 GB of GDDR5 memory on a 256-bit interface. It connects through a PCIe 2.0 x16 slot and provides 1,536 CUDA cores delivering 2.1 teraflops of single-precision compute performance. The card targets Mac Pro users who need certified drivers for professional 3D, video and compute applications.

Thermals and Power

The dual-slot form factor uses a blower-style cooler that exhausts heat out of the rear bracket, keeping internal case temperatures lower in dense Mac Pro chassis. Power is drawn solely from the PCIe slot and an auxiliary connector, with the Kepler architecture maintaining modest power draw under typical CAD and rendering workloads. Acoustic output remains low during sustained professional use.

Display Connectivity

Four video outputs — one dual-link DVI-I, one dual-link DVI-D and two DisplayPort 1.2 connectors — drive up to four monitors simultaneously. DisplayPort 1.2 supports 3840×2160 at 60 Hz with 30 bpp colour depth, while dual-link DVI handles 2560×1600 at 60 Hz. Supported APIs include OpenGL 4.3, OpenCL 1.1, DirectX 11 and Shader Model 5 for broad software compatibility.

Questions about this item

How is the dual-slot Quadro K5000 MAC installed in a Mac Pro, and what step is often missed?

Insert the card into a PCIe 2.0 x16 slot, secure the dual-slot bracket, then connect the required auxiliary power cable; the missed step is forgetting that power lead.

What maintenance will the 4GB GDDR5 Quadro K5000 MAC need over time?

Periodically clean dust from the heatsink and dual-slot fan assembly with compressed air; the GDDR5 memory and Kepler GPU have no user-serviceable parts.

What limit appears first when the 1536-CUDA-core Quadro K5000 MAC runs sustained compute loads?

The 173 GB/s memory bandwidth ceiling is reached before the 2.1 TFLOP single-precision compute peak during prolonged OpenCL 1.1 or CUDA workloads.
