Radeon R7 450 vs Quadro M2000 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the Quadro M2000 GPU is faster than the Radeon R7 450 in gaming.

The Quadro M2000 has a slightly 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.

Next up, in terms of GPU memory, the Quadro M2000 has significantly more memory with 4 GiB of memory compared to 2 GiB. Memory size doesn't directly affect performance, but too little memory will certainly degrade gaming performance.

In addition, the Radeon R7 450 has a slightly lower TDP at 65 W when compared to the Quadro M2000 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 Quadro M2000 is better than the Radeon R7 450.
