Radeon R7 M260 vs HD 4600 comparison

For gaming, the Radeon R7 M260 graphics card is better than the HD 4600 in our tests.

The Radeon R7 M260 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. 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 terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the Radeon R7 M260 is better than the HD 4600.
