Leon Best's brilliant first-half strike took Newcastle up to sixth in the Premier League table and spoiled Mark Hughes's first game as QPR manager.
Rangers twice hit the woodwork in the first half, through a fierce Shaun Wright-Phillips strike and Jay Bothroyd's fabulous, curling effort.
But Newcastle recovered from a shaky start and Best stroked home a cool winner after some fine footwork.
Bothroyd wasted two good chances after the interval but the Magpies held on.
The result was more than a little harsh on QPR, who gave a competitive performance befitting their new boss .
Best's immaculate winner was the only shot on goal the hosts managed but the statistics betray their contribution to a frenetic and entertaining match.
Play media

Pardew happy with "disciplined" Newcastle
QPR slipped into the relegation zone following Blackburn's win over Fulham on Saturday , but would have climbed back out with a point.
And a blistering beginning augured well for their chances of doing just that.
Wright-Phillips skimmed the top of the bar with a fierce 18-yard strike as Newcastle struggled to gain or retain possession in the opening 10 minutes.
Heidar Helguson had a decent strike saved within the first 60 seconds and the Londoners were first to every ball, keeping the Magpies pegged back in their own half.
Akos Buzsaky also caused home goalkeeper Tim Krul a nervy moment with a swerving strike.
And just after the half-hour mark, Bothroyd grazed the far post with a delicious, curling effort from the edge of the box after a lovely piece of skill on the left.
But in between the two efforts that hit the bar and post, Newcastle got on top, despite the setback of Yohan Cabaye having to come off with an ankle injury after a late lunge from Shaun Derry.
In fact, Cabaye's exit probably inadvertently helped the hosts.
Did you know?
Newcastle have kept eight clean sheets in the Premier League this season, matching the total they managed in the whole of the last campaign

In the absence of top scorer Demba Ba and influential midfielder Cheick Tiote - both away at the Africa Cup of Nations - Newcastle's main threat came via the right foot of Ryan Taylor and the class and guile of Cabaye's replacement Hatem Ben Arfa.
Taylor's pinpoint set-piece delivery set up headed chances for Fabricio Coloccini and Jonas Gutierrez, while Taylor also forced a brilliant sprawling save from Paddy Kenny with a measured 25-yard strike.
The home side were rewarded for their growing domination eight minutes before the break when the bustling Danny Guthrie burst forward from midfield and did well to dig the ball out from under his feet and find Best.
Best showed wonderful composure, great awareness and quick feet to skip inside Luke Young and shoot low into the far corner to put the hosts ahead.
Rangers responded and Jamie Mackie volleyed well over after his initial shot was blocked and they started the second half every bit as well as they began the first.
Bothroyd twice had good chances to level, but he blazed his first effort wildly over the bar following a clever nod down from Helguson and saw attempt number two comfortably saved by Kenny at his near post.
Play media

Hughes pleased with QPR attitude
As the visitors began to get stretched chasing an equaliser, Newcastle looked increasingly likely to add to their lead.
Davide Santon saw a shot deflected wide after an excellent run and the impressive Gutierrez had a long-range attempt at a half-guarded net cleared after Kenny raced from his goal.
Ben Arfa almost teed up a second goal for the dangerous Best but the striker was in two minds and his hesitant effort was blocked by Kenny.
Rangers failed to create a decent opening in the closing stages and Newcastle stayed solid and organised and were able to close out their third win in four league games - and a fourth out of five in all competitions .

QPR 0-1 Newcastle

Newcastle signed off their Championship season in style by reaching a century of points with victory at Loftus Road.

Peter Lovenkrands scored the only goal in the 71st minute, beating the offside trap to take Joey Barton's pass and loft the ball over Radek Cerny.

QPR had defender Peter Ramage sent off 15 seconds into the second half when he was shown a straight red card for hauling down Shola Ameobi.

Rangers also had a Tamas Priskin goal ruled out for offside on 55 minutes.

QPR manager Neil Warnock:
"I can't say I was disappointed when the final whistle went.

"I'm looking forward to the summer and bringing my own players in.

"But it was a great atmosphere and we want that every week - and the only way to get that is to be up at the top."

Newcastle boss Chris Hughton on reaching 100 points:

"It was the least of our targets but an important one. We've achieved our three big targets - promotion, then winning the title and keeping our home record.

"But we have a very competitive changing room and it will be wonderful for them to look back on."

OUR FOCUS IS ON US – NOT NEWCASTLE

Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink looks ahead to tonight’s Championship encounter against Newcastle United …

QPR must focus on themselves not Newcastle, says Hasselbaink
The R's host the Magpies at Loftus Road tonight
The Magpies are second in table after four straight wins

JIMMY Floyd Hasselbaink is preparing his players for tonight’s Championship fixture against Newcastle by insisting they focus on what they are capable of, not what the Magpies can do.

Rafa Benitez’s side are second in the table after four straight wins in the league, and remain the Bookies’ favourites to win promotion following their relegation from the top flight last season.

“Yes, we need to respect them and look at the things they do well, but this is a new game and there are three points at stake,” Hasselbaink told www.qpr.co.uk.

Newcastle made a tricky start to life in the second tier, losing their opening two matches against Fulham and Huddersfield, but now appear to have settled in the Championship.

“Have they found their feet? I don’t know,” said Hasselbaink. “Obviously there’s a belief in the camp but if you are going to concentrate on Newcastle, you are going to take a lot away from ourselves.

“We are playing at home and we need to think about us, not about them. It doesn’t matter who is in front of us – it is about trying to win the match.”

Tonight’s opponents sold Andros Townsend, Georginio Wijnaldum and Moussa Sissoko during the summer window, but added to their ranks by signing the likes of Dwight Gayle, Matt Ritchie, Ciaran Clark, Grant Hanley and Matz Sels.

That, accompanied with players who have remained at the club, leaves Benitez with an almost embarrassment of riches in the second tier.

“They have that luxury there, but that can also be a problem,” Hasselbaink said. “But we are happy with what we have got.

“We are not going to place too much emphasis on what they have, or be jealous of what they have. We are looking to match them, take the game to them and try to win the three points.

“We need to use good play, quick play, and be focused and sharp. And we need to be brave and prepared to express ourselves.”

Yeni Ngbakoto (family bereavement) and Joel Lynch (abdomen) are available for selection tonight, while Seb Polter (Glute) and Mass Luongo (ill) are a doubt.

Ben Gladwin, Jamie Mackie and Jack Robinson remain out.
