GeForce GTX 960M  vs 950M 

notebookcheck is your friend: http://www.notebookcheck.net/NVIDIA-GeForce-GTX-960M.138006.0.html

Which one is better than for gaming? 960? I need a laptop with a graphics card with perfomance at least equal to PC card NVIDIA GeForce GT 640. Could anyone help/advise? Which one mobile card has +-equal perfomance?

My ASUS ROG G750 was, but that is a different beast all together.

You shouldn´t change graphics in a notebook. A notebook is not build modulary, so you cannot just change the graphics card like in a desktop pc.

so I just bought a laptop recently <Lenovo ideapad 700> and its running the 950m I was wondering if the notepad was compatible with either te 970m or 960m ive been searching for answers for the past few hours with no luck I cant even find dimensions on either any help?

The 797mhz 860M was the Kepler version and anyone who had the MXM version of an 860M when it was released has a Kepler version. It has 1152 cores and runs hot as hell, not to mention loses to a card with half the shaders. It was a testament to the abilities of what Maxwell was/is capable of. This website is kinda gimmicky. I try to use it at times and all the benchmarks are stupid synthetic runs that show X card being faster than Y card and it's as if the owners are trying to make themselves feel better for owning a card that they made a mistake on purchasing or something. The site is a joke. :/

It's the memory bandwidth that widens the gap so much. Synthetic benches don't test the card for super high memory consumption tests or running heavy memory loads. 2GB GDDR5 will always beat out 4GB GDDR3 at the same bus width. As a 960M owner, I am thankful to have a 4GB framebuffer too. Good stuffs.

Brother, NO ONE on the planet has the 2 gb 860m... you see how the 960m scores a full point above the 860m, when they have the same clock speed, same ram, same .... everything? It's because this site, REFUSES to update the 860m to 1.1 ghz/4gb. It has it as 797 MHz/2gb, which is an outdated version that literally NO ONE has. This site could be the best thing ever, but the "admins," must be doing cocaine. They don't update anything. (notice, as of this date, a gtx 970 vs gtx 1070 comparison isn't up yet, and the card has been out 2 months+) they are lazy.

why do they continue to treat the 960m and 860m, like they are different in ANY significant regard? 6.5 for 860m, 7.5 for 960? They have that stupid 2 gb, 797 MHz 860m in their database that NO ONE has. The 960m should be like 8.2, to the 860m's 8.0, because it does have just a FEW minor significant perks over the 860m. It beats the HELL out of the 2 gb 797 MHz version of the 860m that NO ONE HAS, but no one cares....

960M is a 4GB not a 2GB...unless theres both versions out. GJ keeping it up to date Admins

There's a ddr5 version of this GTX 950M, better compare 960 ddr5 with 950 ddr5

If a game is well optimized or poorly optimized it still is interesting that the gpu's would perform so differently since it is the same game they are testing them on.

Optimization m8.

Interesting, in benchmarks they are close, in gaming the difference is significant.
