GeForce GTX 950M vs Radeon RX 7900 XTX comparison

For gaming, the Radeon RX 7900 XTX graphics card is better than the GeForce GTX 950M in our tests.

In our comparison, the Radeon RX 7900 XTX 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 Radeon RX 7900 XTX also has a significantly higher boost clock speed. The boost clock speed is the frequency that the GPU core can reach if the temperature is low enough. The allows for higher performance in certain scenarios.

In addition, the GeForce GTX 950M has a significantly lower TDP at 75 W when compared to the Radeon RX 7900 XTX at 355 W. Heat output doesn't match power consumption directly but, it's a good estimate.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the Radeon RX 7900 XTX is faster than the GeForce GTX 950M.
