UHD 730 vs GeForce GT 720M comparison

In our benchmarks, the UHD 730 beats the GeForce GT 720M in gaming performance.

In our comparison, the GeForce GT 720M 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 730 has a significantly 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 730 has a significantly lower TDP at 15 W when compared to the GeForce GT 720M at 33 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 UHD 730 is better than the GeForce GT 720M.
