Quadro M3000M vs Quadro P4200 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the Quadro P4200 GPU is faster than the Quadro M3000M in gaming.

As stated by the manufacturer, the Quadro P4200 has significantly more memory with 8 GiB of memory compared to 4 GiB. Memory size doesn't directly affect performance, but too little memory will certainly degrade gaming performance.

In addition, the Quadro M3000M has a slightly lower TDP at 75 W when compared to the Quadro P4200 at 100 W. Heat output doesn't match power consumption directly but, it's a good estimate.

In terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the Quadro P4200 is better than the Quadro M3000M.
