HD 4000 vs GeForce GT 730 benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the GeForce GT 730 beats the HD 4000 in gaming performance.

In our comparison, the GeForce GT 730 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 GT 730 also 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 HD 4000 has a slightly lower TDP at 45 W when compared to the GeForce GT 730 at 49 W. Heat output doesn't match power consumption directly but, it's a good estimate.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the GeForce GT 730 is faster than the HD 4000.
