GeForce GTX 1050 Ti vs Radeon Pro W5500 benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the Radeon Pro W5500 beats the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti in gaming performance.

In our comparison, the Radeon Pro W5500 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 Radeon Pro W5500 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 Radeon Pro W5500 at 125 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

In conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the Radeon Pro W5500 over the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti.
