Radeon RX 580 vs GeForce MX150 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the Radeon RX 580 GPU is faster than the GeForce MX150 in gaming.

The GeForce MX150 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 MX150 also has a slightly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

In addition, the GeForce MX150 has a significantly lower TDP at 25 W when compared to the Radeon RX 580 at 185 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

In terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the Radeon RX 580 is better than the GeForce MX150.
