Radeon RX 460 vs Radeon RX 640 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the Radeon RX 460 GPU is faster than the Radeon RX 640 in gaming.

Our database shows that the Radeon RX 460 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. Despite this, the Radeon RX 640 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.

As stated by the manufacturer, they both have the same amount of memory at 4 GiB. If you're planning at playing games at high resolutions with high-quality textures, you will need a lot of memory.

In addition, the Radeon RX 640 has a significantly lower TDP at 50 W when compared to the Radeon RX 460 at 75 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the Radeon RX 460 is faster than the Radeon RX 640.
