NVIDIA Quadro M1000M Benchmark

NVIDIA Quadro M1000M

The Quadro M1000M is a GPU from NVIDIA released in 2015. This chip has a bad gaming score at 9% in our GPU benchmark.

The Quadro M1000M has 4 GiB of GDDR5 memory, with a total memory bandwidth of 78 GB/s. The memory bus has a width of 128 bits. More memory is beneficial when gaming at high resolutions as the memory needs to store the frame buffer and all the game textures. If you run out of memory, you will experience poor performance as the GPU needs to swap data in and out of the memory as it is used.

In terms of clock speed, the Quadro M1000M GPU core runs at a frequency of 993 MHz. The core clock is directly related to the performance of a GPU, the higher the clock, the more processing can be done per second. A higher clock does not guarantee better performance by itself, this also depends on the number of shading units and other elements of the pipeline.

The performance specs of the Quadro M1000M are this NVIDIA GPU has a pixel rate of 16 Gigapixels/s, the number of pixels the GPU is capable of outputting every second. Furthermore, it has a texture fill rate of 32 Gigatexels/s, the number of pixels the GPU can renderer per second.

As for rendering API support, the Quadro M1000M supports up to DirectX 12.1. In addition, in cross-platform titles, OpenGL 4.5 features are supported. Newer APIs are usually more efficient, allowing for better performance in games and better graphical effects.

The raw technical specs of the Quadro M1000M are: 512 total shading units (general purpose parallel cores capable of processing different aspects of the graphics pipeline), 32 texture mapping units (specialised processors for texture operations, this determines the texture rate) and 16 render output processors or units (the final step in the rendering pipeline, responsible for rasterising the image)

Power and thermals for the NVIDIA Quadro M1000M are a TDP (Thermal Design Power) of 40 watts. This measures the amount of heat the GPU produces when running at 100%. This isn't a measure of power consumption, but it's a good estimate.
