HD 4400 vs GeForce 830M comparison

In our benchmarks, the GeForce 830M beats the HD 4400 in gaming performance.

In our comparison, the GeForce 830M has a significantly 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 830M also has a slightly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

In addition, the HD 4400 has a significantly lower TDP at 20 W when compared to the GeForce 830M at 33 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 conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the GeForce 830M over the HD 4400.
