GeForce GTX 1050 Ti vs GeForce MX250 specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti beats the GeForce MX250 in gaming performance.

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

In addition, the GeForce MX250 has a significantly lower TDP at 10 W when compared to the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti at 75 W. This is not a measure of performance, but rather the amount of heat generated by the chip when running at its highest speed.

In conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti over the GeForce MX250.
