Let's see how good the compared graphics cards are for gaming. Particular gaming benchmark results are measured in FPS.

Pros & cons summary

Performance score	27.85	27.27
Recency	13 September 2018	26 February 2024
Maximum RAM amount	16 GB	4 GB
Chip lithography	12 nm	5 nm
Power consumption (TDP)	70 Watt	35 Watt

Tesla T4 has a 2.1% higher aggregate performance score, and a 300% higher maximum VRAM amount.

Nvidia RTX 500 Ada Generation Mobile, on the other hand, has an age advantage of 5 years, a 140% more advanced lithography process, and 100% lower power consumption.

Given the minimal performance differences, no clear winner can be declared between Tesla T4 and RTX 500 Ada Generation Mobile.

Be aware that Tesla T4 is a workstation card while RTX 500 Ada Generation Mobile is a mobile workstation one.
