GeForce GTX 1660 vs FirePro W7100 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the GeForce GTX 1660 GPU is faster than the FirePro W7100 in gaming.

The GeForce GTX 1660 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.

Furthermore, the spec sheet for both these GPUs show that the FirePro W7100 has slightly more memory with 8 GiB of memory compared to 6 GiB. Memory size doesn't directly affect performance, but too little memory will certainly degrade gaming performance.

In addition, the GeForce GTX 1660 has a slightly lower TDP at 120 W when compared to the FirePro W7100 at 150 W. This is not a measure of performance, but rather the amount of heat generated by the chip when running at its highest speed.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the GeForce GTX 1660 is faster than the FirePro W7100.
