In terms of overall gaming performance, the graphical capabilities of the Nvidia GeForce GTX 1660 Ti Max-Q are massively better than the AMD Radeon R9 M365X 4GB.
The GTX 1660 Ti has a 515 MHz higher core clock speed and 56 more Texture Mapping Units than the R9 M365X. This results in the GTX 1660 Ti providing 84.4 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 GTX 1660 Ti has a 515 MHz higher core clock speed and 32 more Render Output Units than the R9 M365X. This results in the GTX 1660 Ti providing 44.7 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 GTX 1660 Ti was released over three years more recently than the R9 M365X, and so the GTX 1660 Ti is likely to have far better driver support, meaning it will be much more optimized and ultimately superior to the R9 M365X when running the latest games.
The GTX 1660 Ti has 2048 MB more video memory than the R9 M365X, so is likely to be much better at displaying game textures at higher resolutions. This is supported by the fact that the GTX 1660 Ti also has superior memory performance overall.
The GTX 1660 Ti has 224 GB/sec greater memory bandwidth than the R9 M365X, which means that the memory performance of the GTX 1660 Ti is massively better than the R9 M365X.
The GeForce GTX 1660 Ti Max-Q has 1536 Shader Processing Units and the Radeon R9 M365X 4GB has 640. However, the actual shader performance of the GTX 1660 Ti is 2051 and the actual shader performance of the R9 M365X is 340. The GTX 1660 Ti having 1711 better shader performance and an altogether better performance when taking into account other relevant data means that the GTX 1660 Ti delivers a massively smoother and more efficient experience when processing graphical data than the R9 M365X.
The GTX 1660 Ti transistor size technology is 16 nm (nanometers) smaller than the R9 M365X. This means that the GTX 1660 Ti is expected to run slightly cooler and achieve higher clock frequencies than the R9 M365X.
The GeForce GTX 1660 Ti Max-Q requires 60 Watts to run and the Radeon R9 M365X 4GB requires 50 Watts. The GTX 1660 Ti requires 10 Watts more than the R9 M365X to run. The difference is not significant enough for the GTX 1660 Ti to have a noticeably larger impact on your yearly electricity bills than the R9 M365X.

| Mini Review | Overview GeForce GTX 1660 Ti Mobile is a mid-range GeForce 16 Series graphics card for laptops based on the Turing GPU architecture. It is smaller and doesn't drain the battery as fast compared to the mobile version, but it is weaker in performance. Architecture The Turing architecture represents a process shrink down to 12nm compared to 14nm Pascal. Unlike the RTX series, the GTX series does not support real-time ray-tracing. GPU It equips a Turing GPU codenamed TU116, which has 1536 Shader Processing Units, 96 TMUs, 48 ROPs and 24 SMs. The central unit runs at 1455 MHz and goes up to 1590 MHz in Boost mode. Memory The GPU accesses a 6GB frame buffer of first-gen GDDR6 memory through a 192-bit memory interface, while the Memory clock operates at 1500MHz, or 12GHz effective. Power Consumption With a rated board TDP of 80W the GTX 1660 Ti Mobile is averagely resource-intensive and will fairly significantly reduce laptop battery life at full load. System Suggestions GeForce GTX 1660 Ti Mobile is best suited for resolutions up to and including 1920x1080. We recommend a mid-range Processor and at least 16GB of RAM for optimal performance. | Overview Radeon R9 M365X 4GB is a Fast-Middle-Class Mobile Graphics Card based on the First Generation of the Graphics Core Next Architecture (GCN). Architecture Radeon R9 M365X 4GB Features a GPU Codenamed Venus PRO which is a First Gen GCN GPU and is identical to the Cape GPU used on the Desktop Radeon R7 250X. Venus PRO has 10 Compute Units Unlocked and thus offers 640 Shader Processing Units, 40 TMUs and 16 ROPs. GPU The Central Unit is Clocked at 625MHz. Memory: Speed The GPU is equipped with fast GDDR5 and Accesses the Frame Buffer through a 128-bit Memory Interface. The Memory Clock Operates at 1000MHz. Memory: Frame Buffer The GPU can fill up a Memory Pool of up to 4GB. Under most circumstances, this only proves useful in certain 3D Games whose Settings Require Large Amounts of Memory. However, because the GPU itself is too weak to work under other circumstances in which 4GB of Memory are needed - such as 4K Gaming, a Large Frame Buffer is mostly a Gimmick. Power Consumption With a rated board TDP of 50W, it is suited for large laptops. Performance Radeon R9 M365X 4GB is a Direct Rebrand of Radeon R9 M265X. Performance is Comparable to the Desktop Radeon R7 250. System Suggestions Radeon R9 M365X 4GB is best suited for resolutions up to and including 1600x900. We recommend a Strong Processor and 8GB of RAM for Optimal Performance. | |||
