GeForce GTX 770 vs GeForce GTX 960M comparison

In our benchmarks, the GeForce GTX 770 beats the GeForce GTX 960M in gaming performance.

The GeForce GTX 960M 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 960M also has a slightly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

In addition, the GeForce GTX 960M has a significantly lower TDP at 65 W when compared to the GeForce GTX 770 at 230 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

In terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the GeForce GTX 770 is better than the GeForce GTX 960M.
