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 P4000

The Nvidia Quadro P4000 is a mobile high-end workstation graphics card for notebooks. There is currently no consumer counterpart and the GPU is sitting between the Quadro P3000 (GTX 1060) and Quadro P5000 (GTX 1070). It is equipped with 1792 shaders and should therefore use the same GP104 chip from the P5000 (2048 shaders). It has 8 GB GDDR-VRAM at the same bandwidth and has the similar 100-Watt TGP according to Nvidia.
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.
AMD Radeon Pro WX 4150

The AMD Radeon Pro WX 4150 is a professional workstation graphics card for laptops. It was announced early 2017 and is intended for Kaby-Lake based professional notebooks. 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 WX4150 is based on the Polaris 11 or 21 chip and offers 896 shaders like the older AMD Radeon RX 460. Due to the higher clock speed compared to the Radeon Pro 400 GPUs in the MacBook Pro (800 - 900 MHz), we suspect the use of the newer Polaris 21 chip, that is manufactured in an improved 14nm (LPP+) process and allows the chip to be clocked higher.
