GeForce GTX 1060 Max-Q vs Tesla T4 benchmarks

For gaming, the Tesla T4 graphics card is better than the GeForce GTX 1060 Max-Q in our tests.

The GeForce GTX 1060 Max-Q 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. Despite this, the Tesla T4 has a slightly higher boost clock speed. The boost clock speed is the frequency that the GPU core can reach if the temperature is low enough. The allows for higher performance in certain scenarios.

In addition, the Tesla T4 has a slightly lower TDP at 70 W when compared to the GeForce GTX 1060 Max-Q at 80 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 Tesla T4 is better than the GeForce GTX 1060 Max-Q.
