Radeon R5 430 vs HD 4600 benchmarks

For gaming, the Radeon R5 430 graphics card is better than the HD 4600 in our tests.

The Radeon R5 430 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. Despite this, the HD 4600 has a slightly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

In addition, the HD 4600 has a slightly lower TDP at 45 W when compared to the Radeon R5 430 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.

In conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the Radeon R5 430 over the HD 4600.
