Quadro K420 vs Quadro K610M specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Quadro K420 beats the Quadro K610M in gaming performance.

The Quadro K610M 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.

As stated by the manufacturer, they both have the same amount of memory at 1 GiB. Lots of memory is good when playing at high resolutions or with many monitors.

In addition, the Quadro K610M has a slightly lower TDP at 30 W when compared to the Quadro K420 at 41 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the Quadro K420 is faster than the Quadro K610M.
