Radeon R7 370 vs GeForce GTX 950M benchmarks

For gaming, the Radeon R7 370 graphics card is better than the GeForce GTX 950M in our tests.

The GeForce GTX 950M 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. In addition, the GeForce GTX 950M 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 GeForce GTX 950M has a significantly lower TDP at 75 W when compared to the Radeon R7 370 at 150 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

In conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the Radeon R7 370 over the GeForce GTX 950M.
