GeForce GTX 1050 Ti vs GeForce RTX 4090 Laptop benchmarks

For gaming, the GeForce RTX 4090 Laptop graphics card is better than the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti in our tests.

The GeForce RTX 4090 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 4090 Laptop also has a slightly higher boost clock speed. The boost clock speed is the frequency that the GPU core can reach if the temperature is low enough. The allows for higher performance in certain scenarios.

In addition, the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti has a significantly lower TDP at 75 W when compared to the GeForce RTX 4090 Laptop at 120 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 RTX 4090 Laptop over the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti.
