GeForce GTX 1050 Ti vs Radeon R7 430 specs and performance

For gaming, the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti graphics card is better than the Radeon R7 430 in our tests.

In our comparison, the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti has a significantly higher core clock speed. The core clock speed (or base speed) is the frequency at which the GPU core runs. This metric makes sense when comparing GPUs of a similar architecture or generation. In addition, the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti also has a significantly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

In addition, the Radeon R7 430 has a significantly lower TDP at 50 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.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti is faster than the Radeon R7 430.
