GeForce GT 1030 vs Radeon Vega 11 benchmarks

For gaming, the Radeon Vega 11 graphics card is better than the GeForce GT 1030 in our tests.

The GeForce GT 1030 has a significantly higher core clock speed. The core clock speed (or base speed) is the frequency at which the GPU core runs. This metric makes sense when comparing GPUs of a similar architecture or generation. In addition, the GeForce GT 1030 also has a slightly higher boost clock speed. This is a frequency that can be reached if the GPU is cooled sufficiently and has enough power.

In addition, the Radeon Vega 11 has a significantly lower TDP at 15 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 Radeon Vega 11 is better than the GeForce GT 1030.
