GeForce MX130 vs GeForce GT 730 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the GeForce MX130 GPU is faster than the GeForce GT 730 in gaming.

Our database shows that the GeForce MX130 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 GeForce GT 730 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 GeForce MX130 has a significantly lower TDP at 30 W when compared to the GeForce GT 730 at 49 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 MX130 is faster than the GeForce GT 730.
