GeForce GTX 780 vs Quadro M4000 specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the GeForce GTX 780 beats the Quadro M4000 in gaming performance.

In our comparison, the GeForce GTX 780 has a slightly 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.

As stated by the manufacturer, the Quadro M4000 has slightly more memory with 8 GiB of memory compared to 6 GiB. If you're planning at playing games at high resolutions with high-quality textures, you will need a lot of memory.

In addition, the Quadro M4000 has a significantly lower TDP at 120 W when compared to the GeForce GTX 780 at 250 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 780 is faster than the Quadro M4000.
