Radeon RX 480 vs Quadro P2000 comparison

For gaming, the Radeon RX 480 graphics card is better than the Quadro P2000 in our tests.

Our database shows that the Radeon RX 480 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. Despite this, the Quadro P2000 has a slightly higher boost clock speed. This is a frequency that can be reached if the GPU is cooled sufficiently and has enough power.

In addition, the Quadro P2000 has a significantly lower TDP at 75 W when compared to the Radeon RX 480 at 150 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

In conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the Radeon RX 480 over the Quadro P2000.
