In terms of overall gaming performance, the graphical capabilities of the Nvidia GeForce GT 640 are noticeably better than the AMD Radeon HD 7660D + 7670 Dual.
The HD 7660D has no core clock speed set, so any comparison between Texture and Pixel Fill Rates is not currently possible.
The GeForce GT 640 was released less than a year after the HD 7660D, and so they are likely to have similar driver support for optimizing performance when running the latest games.
The GeForce GT 640 has 1024 MB more video memory than the HD 7660D, so is likely to be much better at displaying game textures at higher resolutions. However, overall, the HD 7660D has superior memory performance.
The HD 7660D has 0.3 GB/sec greater memory bandwidth than the GeForce GT 640, which means that the memory performance of the HD 7660D is marginally better than the GeForce GT 640.
The GeForce GT 640 has 384 Shader Processing Units and the Radeon HD 7660D + 7670 Dual has 760. However, the actual shader performance of the GeForce GT 640 is 346 and the actual shader performance of the HD 7660D is 0. The GeForce GT 640 having 346 better shader performance and an altogether better performance when taking into account other relevant data means that the GeForce GT 640 delivers a noticeably smoother and more efficient experience when processing graphical data than the HD 7660D.
The GeForce GT 640 requires 65 Watts to run but there is no entry for the Radeon HD 7660D + 7670 Dual. We would recommend a PSU with at least 350 Watts for the GeForce GT 640.

Mini Review | Overview GeForce GT 640 is a Middle-Class Graphics Card based on the first revision of the Kepler Architecture. Architecture The Kepler Architecture was NVIDIA's big step to power efficiency. Each Stream Multiprocessor (SMX) now hosts 192 Shader Processing Units - against the 48 of older Fermi Architecture, and has been redesigned being now clocked at the same speed of the Central Unit. This means they are more energy efficient and will consequently lead to cooler operating temperatures. However, it also means they are weaker. It can be said that one Fermi SMX is as fast as 2 Kepler SMXs. Additionally, and not available in all GPUs, Kepler also introduced the Boost Clock Feature. The Boost Clock is an even higher Clock Speed activated when in gaming mode and becomes the effective speed of the GPU. GPU It equips a GPU Codenamed GK107-300-A2 which has 2 Stream Multiprocessor activated and thus offers 384 Shader Processing Units, 32 TMUs and 16 ROPs. The Central Unit is clocked at 902MHz. Memory The GPU accesses a 2GB frame buffer of DDR3, through a 128-bit memory interface. The size of the frame buffer is exaggerated and in no way benefits the GPU. The Memory Clock Operates at 891MHz. Features DirectX 11.0 Support (11.0 Hardware Default) and support for Optimus, CUDA, OpenCL, DirectCompute, 3D Vision Surround, PhysX, Realtime Raytracing and other technologies Power Consumption With a rated board TDP of 65W, it requires at least a 350W PSU and it relies entirely on the PCI Slot for power, meaning no extra connectors are required. Performance Gaming benchmarks put its performance on average with Radeon HD 6670. System Suggestions We recommend a Modest Processor (Intel Core i3) and 8GB of RAM for a system with GeForce GT 640. | Radeon HD 7660D + 7670 Dual is a combination of a Radeon 7660D (integrated graphics) with a Radeon HD 7670 (dedicated). This combination is called Asymmetric CrossFire and can also lead to Micro Stuttering. We do not know much about this GPU at the moment but it appears to be 4% worse than a single Radeon HD 7670 performing by itself but in some cases it might be worse or better. |
