GeForce GTX 680 vs Quadro M2200 specs and performance

For gaming, the GeForce GTX 680 graphics card is better than the Quadro M2200 in our tests.

Our database shows that the Quadro M2200 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 4 GiB. Lots of memory is good when playing at high resolutions or with many monitors.

In addition, the Quadro M2200 has a significantly lower TDP at 55 W when compared to the GeForce GTX 680 at 195 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 GeForce GTX 680 over the Quadro M2200.
