You can reduce debayer quality, as well as proxy playback quality. Both achieve performance gains. You can also put the 4K clips on an HD timeline, which may also improve playback. Or a combination of any or all of the above.
If you want to avoid proxies ("Optimized Media" in Resolve) you probably don't want caches either, but you could look into the caching options on the timeline and/or color page.
However, the Quadro is probably going to limp along with the native footage, no matter what you do. If I were you, I'd look into Optimized Media. Or try the "Smart" caching option, which automatically creates proxies for computationally challenging formats (that's the rumor, anyway; haven't tried that option). It's easy to switch between originals and proxies in Resolve.
