HD 4000 vs Radeon R7 M260X specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Radeon R7 M260X beats the HD 4000 in gaming performance.

In our comparison, the HD 4000 has a slightly 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 HD 4000 also 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 Radeon R7 M260X is faster than the HD 4000.
