GeForce GTX 970 vs T600 Laptop benchmarks

For gaming, the GeForce GTX 970 graphics card is better than the T600 Laptop in our tests.

In our comparison, the GeForce GTX 970 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. Despite this, the T600 Laptop has a slightly higher boost clock speed. This is a frequency that can be reached if the GPU is cooled sufficiently and has enough power.

In addition, the T600 Laptop has a significantly lower TDP at 40 W when compared to the GeForce GTX 970 at 145 W. This is not a measure of performance, but rather the amount of heat generated by the chip when running at its highest speed.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the GeForce GTX 970 is faster than the T600 Laptop.
