GeForce GTX 1060 3GB vs Quadro P4000 comparison

For gaming, the Quadro P4000 graphics card is better than the GeForce GTX 1060 3GB in our tests.

Our database shows that the GeForce GTX 1060 3GB has a slightly 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. In addition, the GeForce GTX 1060 3GB also has a slightly higher boost clock speed. This is a frequency that can be reached if the GPU is cooled sufficiently and has enough power.

In addition, the Quadro P4000 has a slightly lower TDP at 105 W when compared to the GeForce GTX 1060 3GB 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.

In conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the Quadro P4000 over the GeForce GTX 1060 3GB.
