Radeon R7 240 vs Radeon RX Vega 11 specs and performance

For gaming, the Radeon RX Vega 11 graphics card is better than the Radeon R7 240 in our tests.

Our database shows that the Radeon R7 240 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 Radeon RX Vega 11 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 Radeon RX Vega 11 has a significantly lower TDP at 15 W when compared to the Radeon R7 240 at 30 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the Radeon RX Vega 11 is faster than the Radeon R7 240.
