AMD Radeon Pro WX 3200 vs NVIDIA Quadro P2000

AMD Radeon Pro WX 3200

The AMD Radeon Pro WX 3200 Mobile is a professional workstation graphics card for laptops. It is based on the consumer Radeon RX 550 and therefore uses the same Polaris 12 chip (codename Lexa). The 640 shaders (10 compute units = CUs) are clocked at 1082 MHz.

The AMD Radeon Pro (formerly known as FirePro) is the counterpart to the Quadro series from Nvidia and offers certified drivers for professional 3D applications (CAD and DCC).

The WX3200 uses the Polaris architecture (4. generation of GCN) that was introduced in 2016 with the RX 400 series. For more information on the features and specifications of the Polaris architecture, visit our in depth article here.

NVIDIA Quadro P2000

The Nvidia Quadro P2000 is a mobile mid-range workstation graphics card for notebooks. Similar to the consumer GeForce GTX 1050 Ti (Laptop), it is based on the GP107 chip with 768 shaders. The graphics card is designed for the Kaby Lake / Coffee Lake generation.

The Quadro GPUs offer certified drivers, which are optimized for stability and performance in professional applications (CAD, DCC, medical, prospection, and visualizing applications). The performance in these areas is therefore much better compared to corresponding consumer GPUs.

Performance

The theoretical performance should be similar with the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti (if the clocks did not take a massive hit).
