UHD 630 vs Radeon HD 8790M comparison

For gaming, the Radeon HD 8790M graphics card is better than the UHD 630 in our tests.

The Radeon HD 8790M 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. Despite this, the UHD 630 has a slightly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

In conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the Radeon HD 8790M over the UHD 630.
