GeForce GTX 750 Ti vs Radeon HD 8790M benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the GeForce GTX 750 Ti GPU is faster than the Radeon HD 8790M in gaming.

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

Furthermore, the spec sheet for both these GPUs show that the GeForce GTX 750 Ti has significantly more memory with 4 GiB of memory compared to 2 GiB. If you're planning at playing games at high resolutions with high-quality textures, you will need a lot of memory.

In terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the GeForce GTX 750 Ti is better than the Radeon HD 8790M.
