FirePro W7100 vs GeForce GTX 965M benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the FirePro W7100 beats the GeForce GTX 965M in gaming performance.

In our comparison, the GeForce GTX 965M 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.

As stated by the manufacturer, the FirePro W7100 has significantly more memory with 8 GiB of memory compared to 4 GiB. If you're planning at playing games at high resolutions with high-quality textures, you will need a lot of memory.

In addition, the GeForce GTX 965M has a significantly lower TDP at 60 W when compared to the FirePro W7100 at 150 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 965M.
