Radeon R9 390X vs Quadro T2000 Max-Q comparison

For gaming, the Quadro T2000 Max-Q graphics card is better than the Radeon R9 390X in our tests.

Our database shows that the Quadro T2000 Max-Q 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. In addition, the Quadro T2000 Max-Q also has a significantly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

In addition, the Quadro T2000 Max-Q has a significantly lower TDP at 40 W when compared to the Radeon R9 390X at 275 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

In conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the Quadro T2000 Max-Q over the Radeon R9 390X.
