UHD 730 vs Radeon HD 8790M benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the Radeon HD 8790M GPU is faster than the UHD 730 in gaming.

In our comparison, 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 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 conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the Radeon HD 8790M over the UHD 730.
