UHD 605 vs Radeon R9 390X benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the Radeon R9 390X beats the UHD 605 in gaming performance.

In our comparison, the Radeon R9 390X 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 Radeon R9 390X also 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.

In addition, the UHD 605 has a significantly lower TDP at 5 W when compared to the Radeon R9 390X at 275 W. Heat output doesn't match power consumption directly but, it's a good estimate.

In terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the Radeon R9 390X is better than the UHD 605.
