Radeon R9 380 vs Quadro P4200 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the Quadro P4200 GPU is faster than the Radeon R9 380 in gaming.

The Quadro P4200 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 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 P4200 has a significantly lower TDP at 100 W when compared to the Radeon R9 380 at 190 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

In terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the Quadro P4200 is better than the Radeon R9 380.
