GeForce GT 730 vs GeForce GTX 1630 comparison

For gaming, the GeForce GTX 1630 graphics card is better than the GeForce GT 730 in our tests.

Our database shows that the GeForce GTX 1630 has a significantly higher core clock speed. The core clock speed (or base speed) is the frequency at which the GPU core runs. This metric makes sense when comparing GPUs of a similar architecture or generation. In addition, the GeForce GTX 1630 also has a slightly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

In addition, the GeForce GT 730 has a significantly lower TDP at 49 W when compared to the GeForce GTX 1630 at 75 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

In conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the GeForce GTX 1630 over the GeForce GT 730.
