GeForce GTX 950 vs GeForce MX150 benchmarks

For gaming, the GeForce GTX 950 graphics card is better than the GeForce MX150 in our tests.

Our database shows that the GeForce MX150 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 MX150 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 MX150 has a significantly lower TDP at 25 W when compared to the GeForce GTX 950 at 90 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 terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the GeForce GTX 950 is better than the GeForce MX150.
