GeForce RTX 3060 vs Quadro M3000M comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the GeForce RTX 3060 GPU is faster than the Quadro M3000M in gaming.

Furthermore, the spec sheet for both these GPUs show that the GeForce RTX 3060 has significantly more memory with 12 GiB of memory compared to 4 GiB. Memory size doesn't directly affect performance, but too little memory will certainly degrade gaming performance.

In addition, the Quadro M3000M has a significantly lower TDP at 75 W when compared to the GeForce RTX 3060 at 170 W. Heat output doesn't match power consumption directly but, it's a good estimate.

In conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the GeForce RTX 3060 over the Quadro M3000M.
