FirePro W7100 vs GeForce GTX 670 comparison

In our benchmarks, the FirePro W7100 beats the GeForce GTX 670 in gaming performance.

The FirePro W7100 has a slightly higher core clock speed. This is the frequency at which the graphics core is running at. While not necessarily an indicator of overall performance, this metric can be useful when comparing two GPUs based on the same architecture.

Furthermore, the spec sheet for both these GPUs show that the FirePro W7100 has significantly more memory with 8 GiB of memory compared to 4 GiB. Lots of memory is good when playing at high resolutions or with many monitors.

In addition, the FirePro W7100 has a slightly lower TDP at 150 W when compared to the GeForce GTX 670 at 170 W. Heat output doesn't match power consumption directly but, it's a good estimate.

In terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the FirePro W7100 is better than the GeForce GTX 670.
