GeForce GTX 1070 vs GeForce 920MX benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the GeForce GTX 1070 GPU is faster than the GeForce 920MX in gaming.

Our database shows that the GeForce GTX 1070 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. In addition, the GeForce GTX 1070 also has a significantly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

In addition, the GeForce 920MX has a significantly lower TDP at 16 W when compared to the GeForce GTX 1070 at 150 W. This is not a measure of performance, but rather the amount of heat generated by the chip when running at its highest speed.

In conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the GeForce GTX 1070 over the GeForce 920MX.
