GeForce GTX 1070 vs FirePro W7100 benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the GeForce GTX 1070 beats the FirePro W7100 in gaming performance.

The GeForce GTX 1070 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.

Next up, in terms of GPU memory, they both have the same amount of memory at 8 GiB. If you're planning at playing games at high resolutions with high-quality textures, you will need a lot of memory.

In addition, both the GeForce GTX 1070 and the FirePro W7100 have an identical TDP. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

In terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the GeForce GTX 1070 is better than the FirePro W7100.
