GeForce GTX 950M vs T550 Laptop benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the T550 Laptop beats the GeForce GTX 950M in gaming performance.

The T550 Laptop 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 T550 Laptop also has a significantly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

In addition, the T550 Laptop has a significantly lower TDP at 23 W when compared to the GeForce GTX 950M at 75 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the T550 Laptop is faster than the GeForce GTX 950M.
