Radeon R9 M360 vs GeForce GTX 960M comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the GeForce GTX 960M GPU is faster than the Radeon R9 M360 in gaming.

Our database shows that the GeForce GTX 960M has a slightly 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 GTX 960M also has a slightly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

As stated by the manufacturer, 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.

In conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the GeForce GTX 960M over the Radeon R9 M360.
