GeForce GTX 950M vs GeForce GTX 760 specs and performance

For gaming, the GeForce GTX 760 graphics card is better than the GeForce GTX 950M in our tests.

Our database shows that the GeForce GTX 950M 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 950M 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 950M has a significantly lower TDP at 75 W when compared to the GeForce GTX 760 at 170 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 conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the GeForce GTX 760 over the GeForce GTX 950M.
