Radeon RX 540 vs GeForce MX330 benchmarks

For gaming, the GeForce MX330 graphics card is better than the Radeon RX 540 in our tests.

In our comparison, the GeForce MX330 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. In addition, the GeForce MX330 also has a slightly higher boost clock speed. The boost clock speed is the frequency that the GPU core can reach if the temperature is low enough. The allows for higher performance in certain scenarios.

In terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the GeForce MX330 is better than the Radeon RX 540.
