Sorry, but a very quick question. From a general performance standpoint, which one is faster? My friend have a MX150 laptop and he wanted to build a desktop with this GPU. With anything else being equal (I know it's difficult, but let's say for the sake of argument there is no CPU bottleneck or any other bottleneck), which one would come out on top? And by how much?
From my understanding the MX150 is equivalent to desktop GT1030, which mean it's slower than a GTX 760. But looking at 3Dmark rankings (the graphics scores) the MX150 seems to be generally scoring higher points, and by higher I mean MASSIVE difference, the 760s are in 1000s range while MX150s reaches 7000s. So... How come?

VERY important EDIT : Decided to check my own PC's score (literally my own, not just a similarly specced PCs). Vega 56 scored 6000-ish in graphics score. I'm sorry but how in the world does an MX150 scored higher than a Vega 56? Not being condescending or anything. Turns out that particular run used an RTX 2070 as "secondary GPU". Now that's poison. My bad, really my bad this time.

After some more digging found some more 'reliable' scores. And the mean seems to be that MX150 scored 1.000-1.200 range while GTX 760 could reach 2.000. I see the truth now.

GTX 760 will beat the MX150 by a fair margin when it comes to benchmark tests and gaming benchmarks.
By how much? A 760 is approx. 2x faster when compared to an MX150.

MX150 is a gpu designed to notebooks while the GTX 760 is a gaming gpu, although an old one nowadays.
