Radeon R7 240 vs GeForce MX150 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the GeForce MX150 GPU is faster than the Radeon R7 240 in gaming.

In our comparison, the GeForce MX150 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 MX150 also has a significantly 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 GeForce MX150 has a slightly lower TDP at 25 W when compared to the Radeon R7 240 at 30 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

In conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the GeForce MX150 over the Radeon R7 240.
