GeForce GTX 1050 vs Arc A380 comparison

In our benchmarks, the Arc A380 beats the GeForce GTX 1050 in gaming performance.

The GeForce GTX 1050 has a significantly 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. Despite this, the Arc A380 has a slightly higher boost clock speed. This is a frequency that can be reached if the GPU is cooled sufficiently and has enough power.

In addition, both the GeForce GTX 1050 and the Arc A380 have an identical TDP. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the Arc A380 is faster than the GeForce GTX 1050.
