HD 520 vs GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU is faster than the HD 520 in gaming.

The GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop 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 RTX 3070 Laptop also has a significantly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

In addition, the HD 520 has a significantly lower TDP at 15 W when compared to the GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop at 115 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 RTX 3070 Laptop over the HD 520.
