AMD Radeon 610 vs NVIDIA GeForce GTX 950 vs AMD Radeon 620
AMD Radeon 610
► remove from comparisonThe Radeon 610 is a dedicated entry-level graphics card for laptops that was released in 2019. It is the slowest dedicated graphics card from AMD in 2019 and a rename of the old Radeon 520. Therefore, it is not based on the newer Polaris or even Navi architecture, but should use the old Sun chip from 2014 (Radeon R5 M230 e.g.).
The performance should be similar to the integrated Intel UHD Graphics 620 and therefore, the gaming performance is only suited for very low demanding games. Look at our benchmarks of the similar Radeon 520 for reference.
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 950
► remove from comparisonThe Nvidia GeForce GTX 950 is a mid-range graphics card for desktop PCs. It is based on the 28nm Maxwell GM206 chip and offers 768 shaders, 48 TMUs and 32 ROPs. The graphics memory is typically 2 GB GDDR5 with 6.6 GHz effective and a 128-bit interface.
As a novelty compared to the previous Maxwell GM204 chip, the GM206 includes the new VP7 video engine with HVEC (H.265) decoding and encoding. Furthermore, the GTX 950 supports HDMI 2.0 and HDCP 2.2 for 4K video output.
The 3D gaming performance of the GTX 950 is slightly better than the GeForce GTX 965M (33% more shaders but slower clock speed).
AMD Radeon 620
► remove from comparisonThe Radeon 620 is a dedicated entry-level graphics card for laptops that was released in 2019. According to AMD there are two versions of the GPU one with 5 CUs and most likely higher clock speeds and a 6 CU version with 384 cores. Furthermore, the chip can be paired with slow DDR3 (maybe for the 6 CU version) and faster GDDR5. The chip is most likely not based on any current architecture like Navi or even Polaris, but still the old Sun chip from 2014 (e.g. from the Radeon R5 M230 and later up to M440 and Radeon 520).
The performance depends of the used version and graphics memory, but should be somewhere between a Radeon 520 and 530 in the absolute entry level. That means, only a few modern games like Dirt Rally 2.0 should run fluently on the GPU.
