GeForce MX150 vs GeForce 940MX specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the GeForce MX150 GPU is faster than the GeForce 940MX in gaming.

Our database shows that the GeForce MX150 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. In addition, the GeForce MX150 also has a slightly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

In addition, the GeForce 940MX has a slightly lower TDP at 23 W when compared to the GeForce MX150 at 25 W. This is not a measure of performance, but rather the amount of heat generated by the chip when running at its highest speed.

In terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the GeForce MX150 is better than the GeForce 940MX.
