GeForce GTX 1050 vs Quadro M3000M specs and performance

For gaming, the GeForce GTX 1050 graphics card is better than the Quadro M3000M in our tests.

Furthermore, the spec sheet for both these GPUs show that the Quadro M3000M has significantly more memory with 4 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, both the GeForce GTX 1050 and the Quadro M3000M have an identical TDP. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

In terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the GeForce GTX 1050 is better than the Quadro M3000M.
