GeForce GT 1030 vs GeForce RTX 3050 Laptop comparison

For gaming, the GeForce RTX 3050 Laptop graphics card is better than the GeForce GT 1030 in our tests.

Our database shows that the GeForce RTX 3050 Laptop has a slightly 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 RTX 3050 Laptop also has a slightly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the GeForce RTX 3050 Laptop is faster than the GeForce GT 1030.
