GeForce GTX 1060 6GB vs Quadro P3000 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the GeForce GTX 1060 6GB GPU is faster than the Quadro P3000 in gaming.

In our comparison, the GeForce GTX 1060 6GB 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.

Next up, in terms of GPU memory, they both have the same amount of memory at 6 GiB. Lots of memory is good when playing at high resolutions or with many monitors.

In addition, the Quadro P3000 has a significantly lower TDP at 75 W when compared to the GeForce GTX 1060 6GB at 120 W. Heat output doesn't match power consumption directly but, it's a good estimate.

In conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the GeForce GTX 1060 6GB over the Quadro P3000.
