HD 630 vs GeForce 830M specs and performance

For gaming, the GeForce 830M graphics card is better than the HD 630 in our tests.

The GeForce 830M 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 GeForce 830M also has a slightly higher boost clock speed. This is a frequency that can be reached if the GPU is cooled sufficiently and has enough power.

In addition, the HD 630 has a significantly lower TDP at 15 W when compared to the GeForce 830M at 33 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

In conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the GeForce 830M over the HD 630.
