GeForce GTX 980 vs UHD 770 specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the GeForce GTX 980 GPU is faster than the UHD 770 in gaming.

The GeForce GTX 980 has a significantly 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 UHD 770 has a slightly 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 UHD 770 has a significantly lower TDP at 15 W when compared to the GeForce GTX 980 at 165 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the GeForce GTX 980 is faster than the UHD 770.
