In terms of overall gaming performance, the graphical capabilities of the Nvidia GeForce GTX 560M are significantly better than the Nvidia GeForce 920M 2GB.

The GeForce GTX 560M has a 200 MHz higher core clock speed and the same number of Texture Mapping Units as the GeForce 920M 2GB. This results in the GeForce GTX 560M providing 6.4 GTexel/s better texturing performance. This still holds weight but shader performance is generally more relevant, particularly since both of these GPUs support at least DirectX 10.

The GeForce GTX 560M has a 200 MHz higher core clock speed and 16 more Render Output Units than the GeForce 920M 2GB. This results in the GeForce GTX 560M providing 14 GPixel/s better pixeling performance. However, both GPUs support DirectX 9 or above, and pixeling performance is only really relevant when comparing older cards.

The GeForce 920M 2GB was released over three years more recently than the GeForce GTX 560M, and so the GeForce 920M 2GB is likely to have far better driver support, meaning it will be much more optimized and ultimately superior to the GeForce GTX 560M when running the latest games.

The GeForce 920M 2GB has 512 MB more video memory than the GeForce GTX 560M, so is likely to be much better at displaying game textures at higher resolutions. However, overall, the GeForce GTX 560M has superior memory performance.

The GeForce GTX 560M has 45.6 GB/sec greater memory bandwidth than the GeForce 920M 2GB, which means that the memory performance of the GeForce GTX 560M is noticeably better than the GeForce 920M 2GB.

The GeForce 920M 2GB has 384 Shader Processing Units and the GeForce GTX 560M has 192. However, the actual shader performance of the GeForce 920M 2GB is 366 and the actual shader performance of the GeForce GTX 560M is 298. The GeForce 920M 2GB having 68 better shader performance is not particularly notable, as altogether the GeForce GTX 560M performs better when taking into account other relevant data.

The GeForce 920M 2GB transistor size technology is 12 nm (nanometers) smaller than the GeForce GTX 560M. This means that the GeForce 920M 2GB is expected to run slightly cooler and achieve higher clock frequencies than the GeForce GTX 560M.

The GeForce 920M 2GB requires 25 Watts to run and the GeForce GTX 560M requires 75 Watts. The GeForce GTX 560M requires 50 Watts more than the GeForce 920M 2GB to run. The difference is significant enough that the GeForce GTX 560M may have a slight adverse affect on your yearly electricity bills in comparison to the GeForce 920M 2GB.

GPU Mini Review


Mini Review	Overview GeForce 920M 2GB is an Entry-Level Mobile Graphics Card based on the second revision of the Kepler Architecture. Architecture This Graphics Card Equips the Kepler GK208 GPU which is essentially a power optimized version of the GK107 GPU. Whereas it still has a count of 2 Stream Multiprocessors, the bus-width has been cut in half to allow for even a smaller power consumption and consequently a cooler operating temperature. Additionally, the GK208 GPU allows the Central Unit to reach a significant higher frequency, thanks to the Kepler Boost 2.0 Technology. The better the laptop's cooling system, the higher the frequency. GPU It equips a GPU Codenamed GK208-N16V-GM which has 2 Stream Multiprocessors activated and thus offers 384 Shader Processing Units, 16 TMUs and 8 ROPs. The Central Unit is Initially clocked at 575MHz and goes up to 954MHz, in Turbo Mode. Memory The GPU accesses a 2GB frame buffer of DDR3, through a 64-bit memory interface. The size of the frame buffer is exaggerated and in no way benefits the GPU. The Memory Clock Operates at 900MHz. Power Consumption With a rated board TDP of 25W, it is suited for small laptops. Performance GeForce 920M 2GB is essentially a slightly faster GeForce GT 735M and offers more or less comparable performance. System Suggestions We recommend a Modest Processor and 4GB of RAM for a system with GeForce GT 920M 2GB.				Overview GeForce GTX 560M is a Performance Mobile Graphics Card based on the second revision of the Fermi Architecture. Architecture The Fermi Architecture is manufactured with a 40nm technology and uses a technique known as Hot Clocking: The Shaders are clocked twice as fast as the Central Unit. While this leads to a reasonable performance boost, it causes enormous amounts of energy dissipation, leading, ultimately, to a significantly higher operating temperature. Fermi is also the first GPU architecture with fully cached memory access which increases memory performance. GPU It equips a GPU Codenamed GF116 which has 4 Stream Multiprocessors activated and thus offers 192 Shader Processing Units, 32 TMUs and 24 ROPs. The Central Unit is clocked at 775MHz. Memory The GPU accesses a 1.5GB frame buffer of fast GDDR5, through a 192-bit memory interface. The size of the frame buffer is adequate. The Memory Clock Operates at 625MHz. Features DirectX 11.0 Support (11.0 Hardware Default) and support for SLI, Optimus, 3D Vision Surround, PhysX, Realtime Raytracing and other technologies Power Consumption With a rated board TDP of 75W, it is suited for large laptops. Performance Gaming benchmarks put its performance identical to a desktop GeForce GTs 450. System Suggestions We recommend a decent processor (Intel Core i5 Mobile) and 4GB of RAM for a system with GeForce GTX 560M.
