FirePro W2100 vs GeForce RTX 3050 comparison

In our benchmarks, the GeForce RTX 3050 beats the FirePro W2100 in gaming performance.

In our comparison, the GeForce RTX 3050 has a significantly higher core clock speed. The core clock speed (or base speed) is the frequency at which the GPU core runs. This metric makes sense when comparing GPUs of a similar architecture or generation. In addition, the GeForce RTX 3050 also has a significantly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

In addition, the FirePro W2100 has a significantly lower TDP at 26 W when compared to the GeForce RTX 3050 at 130 W. Heat output doesn't match power consumption directly but, it's a good estimate.

In conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the GeForce RTX 3050 over the FirePro W2100.
