Quadro K4000 vs Quadro M3000M specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the Quadro M3000M GPU is faster than the Quadro K4000 in gaming.

Furthermore, the spec sheet for both these GPUs show that the Quadro M3000M has slightly more memory with 4 GiB of memory compared to 3 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 M3000M has a slightly lower TDP at 75 W when compared to the Quadro K4000 at 80 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 M3000M over the Quadro K4000.
