Radeon R7 250 vs Quadro K2100M specs and performance

For gaming, the Radeon R7 250 graphics card is better than the Quadro K2100M in our tests.

The Radeon R7 250 has a significantly 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 K2100M has a slightly lower TDP at 55 W when compared to the Radeon R7 250 at 75 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 terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the Radeon R7 250 is better than the Quadro K2100M.
