GeForce RTX 4090 Laptop vs GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the GeForce RTX 4090 Laptop GPU is faster than the GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop in gaming.

Our database shows that the GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop 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. In addition, the GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop also 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 GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop has a slightly lower TDP at 115 W when compared to the GeForce RTX 4090 Laptop at 120 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 RTX 4090 Laptop is better than the GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop.
