GeForce 920MX vs Radeon Vega 3 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the GeForce 920MX GPU is faster than the Radeon Vega 3 in gaming.

In our comparison, the GeForce 920MX has a significantly higher core clock speed. This is the frequency at which the graphics core is running at. While not necessarily an indicator of overall performance, this metric can be useful when comparing two GPUs based on the same architecture. Despite this, the Radeon Vega 3 has a slightly higher boost clock speed. The boost clock speed is the frequency that the GPU core can reach if the temperature is low enough. The allows for higher performance in certain scenarios.

In addition, the Radeon Vega 3 has a slightly lower TDP at 15 W when compared to the GeForce 920MX at 16 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

In conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the GeForce 920MX over the Radeon Vega 3.
