Radeon RX 640 vs Quadro K5100M benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the Radeon RX 640 beats the Quadro K5100M in gaming performance.

The Radeon RX 640 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 K5100M 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 Radeon RX 640 has a significantly lower TDP at 50 W when compared to the Quadro K5100M at 100 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 640 over the Quadro K5100M.
