GeForce GT 1030 vs GeForce MX350 benchmarks

For gaming, the GeForce MX350 graphics card is better than the GeForce GT 1030 in our tests.

The GeForce GT 1030 has a significantly higher core clock speed. This is the frequency at which the graphics core is running at. While not necessarily an indicator of overall performance, this metric can be useful when comparing two GPUs based on the same architecture. In addition, the GeForce GT 1030 also has a significantly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

In addition, the GeForce MX350 has a significantly lower TDP at 20 W when compared to the GeForce GT 1030 at 30 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

In terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the GeForce MX350 is better than the GeForce GT 1030.
