Radeon R5 240 vs Radeon R5 M330 specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Radeon R5 240 beats the Radeon R5 M330 in gaming performance.

Our database shows that the Radeon R5 M330 has a slightly 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.

As stated by the manufacturer, the Radeon R5 M330 has significantly more memory with 4 GiB of memory compared to 2 GiB. If you're planning at playing games at high resolutions with high-quality textures, you will need a lot of memory.

In addition, the Radeon R5 M330 has a significantly lower TDP at 18 W when compared to the Radeon R5 240 at 50 W. This is not a measure of performance, but rather the amount of heat generated by the chip when running at its highest speed.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the Radeon R5 240 is faster than the Radeon R5 M330.
