Radeon R7 M350 vs Quadro K420 comparison

For gaming, the Quadro K420 graphics card is better than the Radeon R7 M350 in our tests.

Our database shows that the Radeon R7 M350 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.

Next up, in terms of GPU memory, the Radeon R7 M350 has significantly more memory with 4 GiB of memory compared to 1 GiB. Memory size doesn't directly affect performance, but too little memory will certainly degrade gaming performance.

In addition, the Radeon R7 M350 has a slightly lower TDP at 35 W when compared to the Quadro K420 at 41 W. This is not a measure of performance, but rather the amount of heat generated by the chip when running at its highest speed.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the Quadro K420 is faster than the Radeon R7 M350.
