Passmark
This is the most ubiquitous GPU benchmark. It gives the graphics card a thorough evaluation under various types of load, providing four separate benchmarks for Direct3D versions 9, 10, 11 and 12 (the last being done in 4K resolution if possible), and few more tests engaging DirectCompute capabilities.

Pros & cons summary
| Performance score | 3.83 | 4.17 |
| Recency | 29 May 2014 | 3 January 2023 |
| Chip lithography | 28 nm | 10 nm |
| Power consumption (TDP) | 64 Watt | 15 Watt |
UHD Graphics 730 has a 8.9% higher aggregate performance score, an age advantage of 8 years, a 180% more advanced lithography process, and 326.7% lower power consumption.
Given the minimal performance differences, no clear winner can be declared between GeForce GT 740 and UHD Graphics 730.
