GeForce MX330 vs GeForce 940MX comparison

For gaming, the GeForce MX330 graphics card is better than the GeForce 940MX in our tests.

The GeForce MX330 has a significantly higher core clock speed. This is the frequency at which the graphics core is running at. While not necessarily an indicator of overall performance, this metric can be useful when comparing two GPUs based on the same architecture. In addition, the GeForce MX330 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 MX330 has a significantly lower TDP at 10 W when compared to the GeForce 940MX at 23 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 MX330 is better than the GeForce 940MX.
