Radeon RX 480 vs Quadro 4000M benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the Radeon RX 480 beats the Quadro 4000M in gaming performance.

Our database shows that the Radeon RX 480 has a significantly higher core clock speed. This is the frequency at which the graphics core is running at. While not necessarily an indicator of overall performance, this metric can be useful when comparing two GPUs based on the same architecture.

Next up, in terms of GPU memory, the Radeon RX 480 has significantly more memory with 8 GiB of memory compared to 2 GiB. Lots of memory is good when playing at high resolutions or with many monitors.

In addition, the Quadro 4000M has a significantly lower TDP at 100 W when compared to the Radeon RX 480 at 150 W. Heat output doesn't match power consumption directly but, it's a good estimate.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the Radeon RX 480 is faster than the Quadro 4000M.
