GeForce GTX 1060 3GB vs FirePro W7100 specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the GeForce GTX 1060 3GB beats the FirePro W7100 in gaming performance.

Our database shows that the GeForce GTX 1060 3GB has a significantly 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.

In addition, the GeForce GTX 1060 3GB has a slightly lower TDP at 120 W when compared to the FirePro W7100 at 150 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the GeForce GTX 1060 3GB is faster than the FirePro W7100.
