GeForce GTX 1050 vs Quadro M4000 comparison

For gaming, the GeForce GTX 1050 graphics card is better than the Quadro M4000 in our tests.

Our database shows that the GeForce GTX 1050 has a significantly 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.

Next up, in terms of GPU memory, the Quadro M4000 has significantly more memory with 8 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 significantly lower TDP at 75 W when compared to the Quadro M4000 at 120 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 GeForce GTX 1050 is faster than the Quadro M4000.
