Radeon R7 M265 vs GeForce 940M comparison

In our benchmarks, the GeForce 940M beats the Radeon R7 M265 in gaming performance.

Our database shows that the GeForce 940M has a slightly 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. In addition, the GeForce 940M also has a slightly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the GeForce 940M is faster than the Radeon R7 M265.
