HD 610 vs GeForce RTX 3060 Laptop specs and performance

For gaming, the GeForce RTX 3060 Laptop graphics card is better than the HD 610 in our tests.

Our database shows that the GeForce RTX 3060 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 3060 Laptop also has a significantly 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.

In addition, the HD 610 has a significantly lower TDP at 5 W when compared to the GeForce RTX 3060 Laptop at 80 W. Heat output doesn't match power consumption directly but, it's a good estimate.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the GeForce RTX 3060 Laptop is faster than the HD 610.
