GeForce GTX 760 vs GeForce 940M specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the GeForce GTX 760 GPU is faster than the GeForce 940M in gaming.

In our comparison, the GeForce 940M 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 940M 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 940M has a significantly lower TDP at 75 W when compared to the GeForce GTX 760 at 170 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 760 is faster than the GeForce 940M.
