GeForce GTX 1050 vs GeForce GTX 1630 comparison

In our benchmarks, the GeForce GTX 1630 beats the GeForce GTX 1050 in gaming performance.

In our comparison, the GeForce GTX 1630 has a slightly 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 1630 also 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 GeForce GTX 1630 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 GeForce GTX 1630 is faster than the GeForce GTX 1050.
