HD 610 vs GeForce GTX 690 specs and performance

For gaming, the GeForce GTX 690 graphics card is better than the HD 610 in our tests.

The GeForce GTX 690 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 GTX 690 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 610 has a significantly lower TDP at 5 W when compared to the GeForce GTX 690 at 300 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

In terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the GeForce GTX 690 is better than the HD 610.
