Radeon R7 M340 vs GeForce GT 1030 specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the GeForce GT 1030 beats the Radeon R7 M340 in gaming performance.

Our database shows that the GeForce GT 1030 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 GT 1030 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 terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the GeForce GT 1030 is better than the Radeon R7 M340.
