GeForce GTX 965M vs Quadro M2000 comparison

For gaming, the GeForce GTX 965M graphics card is better than the Quadro M2000 in our tests.

Our database shows that the Quadro M2000 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. In addition, the Quadro M2000 also has a slightly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

Furthermore, the spec sheet for both these GPUs show that 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 GeForce GTX 965M has a slightly lower TDP at 60 W when compared to the Quadro M2000 at 75 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

In conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the GeForce GTX 965M over the Quadro M2000.
