Connectivity and outputs
This section shows the types and number of video connectors on each GPU. The data applies specifically to desktop reference models (for example, NVIDIA’s Founders Edition). OEM partners often modify both the number and types of ports. On notebook GPUs, video‐output options are determined by the laptop’s design rather than the graphics chip itself.

Passmark
This is the most ubiquitous GPU benchmark. It gives the graphics card a thorough evaluation under various types of load, providing four separate benchmarks for Direct3D versions 9, 10, 11 and 12 (the last being done in 4K resolution if possible), and few more tests engaging DirectCompute capabilities.

Pros & cons summary
| Performance score | 8.53 | 7.89 |
| Recency | 30 August 2015 | 12 February 2018 |
| Maximum RAM amount | 8 GB | 5 GB |
| Chip lithography | 28 nm | 16 nm |
| Power consumption (TDP) | 100 Watt | 250 Watt |
GRID M6-8Q has a 8.1% higher aggregate performance score, a 60% higher maximum VRAM amount, and 150% lower power consumption.
P102-100, on the other hand, has an age advantage of 2 years, and a 75% more advanced lithography process.
Given the minimal performance differences, no clear winner can be declared between GRID M6-8Q and P102-100.
