GeForce GTX 1050 Ti Max-Q vs Radeon R9 370 benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti Max-Q beats the Radeon R9 370 in gaming performance.

Our database shows that the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti Max-Q 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 GTX 1050 Ti Max-Q also has a slightly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

As stated by the manufacturer, they both have the same amount of memory at 4 GiB. If you're planning at playing games at high resolutions with high-quality textures, you will need a lot of memory.

In addition, the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti Max-Q has a significantly lower TDP at 75 W when compared to the Radeon R9 370 at 150 W. Heat output doesn't match power consumption directly but, it's a good estimate.

In conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti Max-Q over the Radeon R9 370.
