GeForce GTX 680 vs GeForce GTX 750 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the GeForce GTX 680 GPU is faster than the GeForce GTX 750 in gaming.

In our comparison, the GeForce GTX 750 has a slightly 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 750 also has a slightly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

As stated by the manufacturer, the GeForce GTX 680 has significantly more memory with 4 GiB of memory compared to 2 GiB. Memory size doesn't directly affect performance, but too little memory will certainly degrade gaming performance.

In addition, the GeForce GTX 750 has a significantly lower TDP at 55 W when compared to the GeForce GTX 680 at 195 W. Heat output doesn't match power consumption directly but, it's a good estimate.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the GeForce GTX 680 is faster than the GeForce GTX 750.
