The AMD Radeon Pro WX 2100 Mobile is a professional workstation graphics card for laptops. It is based on the consumer Radeon RX 540X and therefore uses the same Polaris 12 chip (unverified). The exact clock speeds of the mobile version are not published, the desktop version however, seems to feature similar clock speeds as the RX 540X.
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).

NVIDIA Quadro P3000 Max-Q
► remove from comparison![NVIDIA Quadro P3000 Max-Q](fileadmin/_processed_/7/a/csm_nvidia_quadro_chip_9b935577da.jpg)
The Nvidia Quadro P3000 Max-Q (official Nvidia Quadro P3000 with Max-Q Design) is a mobile high-end workstation graphics card for notebooks. Similar to the consumer GeForce GTX 1060 (Laptop), it is based on the GP106 chip with 1280 shaders. The graphics card is the more efficient version of the normal Quadro P3000 with slightly reduced clock speeds at a much reduced power consumption (60 Watt versus 75 Watt TGP).
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 only slightly below the normal Quadro P3000 (as it was with the Max-Q GTX 1060 versus the normal GTX 1060).
