Radeon Vega 8 vs Quadro M2000 specs and performance

For gaming, the Quadro M2000 graphics card is better than the Radeon Vega 8 in our tests.

The Quadro M2000 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. Despite this, the Radeon Vega 8 has a significantly higher boost clock speed. The boost clock speed is the frequency that the GPU core can reach if the temperature is low enough. The allows for higher performance in certain scenarios.

In addition, the Radeon Vega 8 has a significantly lower TDP at 45 W when compared to the Quadro M2000 at 75 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

In terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the Quadro M2000 is better than the Radeon Vega 8.
