GeForce RTX 3060 Laptop vs GeForce MX330 comparison

For gaming, the GeForce RTX 3060 Laptop graphics card is better than the GeForce MX330 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. Despite this, the GeForce RTX 3060 Laptop has a slightly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the GeForce RTX 3060 Laptop is faster than the GeForce MX330.
