GeForce GTX 1050 Max-Q vs FirePro W7100 specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the FirePro W7100 GPU is faster than the GeForce GTX 1050 Max-Q in gaming.

Our database shows that the GeForce GTX 1050 Max-Q has a slightly 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.

Next up, in terms of GPU memory, 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 GeForce GTX 1050 Max-Q has a significantly lower TDP at 75 W when compared to the FirePro W7100 at 150 W. This is not a measure of performance, but rather the amount of heat generated by the chip when running at its highest speed.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the FirePro W7100 is faster than the GeForce GTX 1050 Max-Q.
