HD 4400 vs Radeon R7 M260 specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Radeon R7 M260 beats the HD 4400 in gaming performance.

In our comparison, the Radeon R7 M260 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. In addition, the Radeon R7 M260 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.

As stated by the manufacturer, the Radeon R7 M260 has significantly more memory with 4 GiB of memory compared to 1.66 GiB. Memory size doesn't directly affect performance, but too little memory will certainly degrade gaming performance.

In conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the Radeon R7 M260 over the HD 4400.
