Radeon R9 370 vs GeForce MX150 comparison

In our benchmarks, the Radeon R9 370 beats the GeForce MX150 in gaming performance.

In our comparison, the GeForce MX150 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 MX150 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 addition, the GeForce MX150 has a significantly lower TDP at 25 W when compared to the Radeon R9 370 at 150 W. This is not a measure of performance, but rather the amount of heat generated by the chip when running at its highest speed.

In conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the Radeon R9 370 over the GeForce MX150.
