GeForce GTX 950 vs Radeon R9 M360 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the GeForce GTX 950 GPU is faster than the Radeon R9 M360 in gaming.

Our database shows that the GeForce GTX 950 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 950 also has a slightly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

Next up, in terms of GPU memory, the Radeon R9 M360 has significantly more memory with 4 GiB of memory compared to 2 GiB. Lots of memory is good when playing at high resolutions or with many monitors.

In conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the GeForce GTX 950 over the Radeon R9 M360.
