GeForce GTX 960M vs Radeon HD 6570 specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the GeForce GTX 960M beats the Radeon HD 6570 in gaming performance.

Furthermore, the spec sheet for both these GPUs show that the GeForce GTX 960M has significantly more memory with 4 GiB of memory compared to 1 GiB. Memory size doesn't directly affect performance, but too little memory will certainly degrade gaming performance.

In addition, the Radeon HD 6570 has a significantly lower TDP at 40 W when compared to the GeForce GTX 960M at 65 W. Heat output doesn't match power consumption directly but, it's a good estimate.

In terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the GeForce GTX 960M is better than the Radeon HD 6570.
