GeForce GTX 1050 vs Quadro K4000 benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the GeForce GTX 1050 beats the Quadro K4000 in gaming performance.

Furthermore, the spec sheet for both these GPUs show that the Quadro K4000 has significantly more memory with 3 GiB of memory compared to 2 GiB. Memory size doesn't directly affect performance, but too little memory will certainly degrade gaming performance.

In addition, the GeForce GTX 1050 has a slightly lower TDP at 75 W when compared to the Quadro K4000 at 80 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the GeForce GTX 1050 is faster than the Quadro K4000.
