GeForce GTX 1060 3GB vs Quadro K5000 specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the GeForce GTX 1060 3GB GPU is faster than the Quadro K5000 in gaming.

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 Quadro K5000 at 122 W. Heat output doesn't match power consumption directly but, it's a good estimate.

In terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the GeForce GTX 1060 3GB is better than the Quadro K5000.
