A base GPU test is a reference for cards using that GPU and the same memory capacity. Board overclocking, cooling and power limits can change the result.

Comparable benchmark results are required to suggest performance alternatives.

Base Clock is the base GPU frequency stated by the manufacturer for this model.

Boost Clock describes automatic frequency increases. Actual clock speed varies with workload, temperature and power limits; it is not a guarantee of manual overclocking.
