GeForce GTX 950 vs Radeon R7 370 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the GeForce GTX 950 GPU is faster than the Radeon R7 370 in gaming.

Our database shows that the GeForce GTX 950 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 950 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.

As stated by the manufacturer, the Radeon R7 370 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 addition, the GeForce GTX 950 has a significantly lower TDP at 90 W when compared to the Radeon R7 370 at 150 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the GeForce GTX 950 is faster than the Radeon R7 370.
