Quadro K1000M vs Quadro K2000M comparison

For gaming, the Quadro K1000M graphics card is better than the Quadro K2000M in our tests.

The Quadro K1000M 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 2 GiB. Memory size doesn't directly affect performance, but too little memory will certainly degrade gaming performance.

In addition, the Quadro K1000M has a slightly lower TDP at 45 W when compared to the Quadro K2000M at 55 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 terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the Quadro K1000M is better than the Quadro K2000M.
