GeForce GTX 1070 Max-Q vs GeForce GTX 880M comparison

In our benchmarks, the GeForce GTX 1070 Max-Q beats the GeForce GTX 880M in gaming performance.

The GeForce GTX 1070 Max-Q 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 1070 Max-Q also has a slightly higher boost clock speed. This is a frequency that can be reached if the GPU is cooled sufficiently and has enough power.

In addition, the GeForce GTX 1070 Max-Q has a slightly lower TDP at 90 W when compared to the GeForce GTX 880M at 122 W. This is not a measure of performance, but rather the amount of heat generated by the chip when running at its highest speed.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the GeForce GTX 1070 Max-Q is faster than the GeForce GTX 880M.
