GeForce GTX 950M vs Quadro M2000M specs and performance

For gaming, the GeForce GTX 950M graphics card is better than the Quadro M2000M in our tests.

The Quadro M2000M 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. Despite this, the GeForce GTX 950M has a slightly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

In addition, the Quadro M2000M has a slightly lower TDP at 55 W when compared to the GeForce GTX 950M at 75 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 950M is faster than the Quadro M2000M.
