GeForce GTX 1050 Ti Max-Q vs Radeon RX 460 comparison

In our benchmarks, the Radeon RX 460 beats the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti Max-Q 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.

Next up, in terms of GPU memory, 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, both the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti Max-Q and the Radeon RX 460 have an identical TDP. Heat output doesn't match power consumption directly but, it's a good estimate.

In terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the Radeon RX 460 is better than the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti Max-Q.
