Quadro K2000 vs Quadro P400 specs and performance

For gaming, the Quadro P400 graphics card is better than the Quadro K2000 in our tests.

In our comparison, the Quadro P400 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, they both have the same amount of memory at 2 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 P400 has a significantly lower TDP at 30 W when compared to the Quadro K2000 at 51 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 conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the Quadro P400 over the Quadro K2000.
