Radeon R7 M340 vs GeForce GTX 965M comparison

For gaming, the GeForce GTX 965M graphics card is better than the Radeon R7 M340 in our tests.

In our comparison, the GeForce GTX 965M 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. In addition, the GeForce GTX 965M 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.

Next up, in terms of GPU memory, they both have the same amount of memory at 4 GiB. Lots of memory is good when playing at high resolutions or with many monitors.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the GeForce GTX 965M is faster than the Radeon R7 M340.
