GeForce GTX 1050 vs RTX A2000 specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the RTX A2000 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. In addition, the GeForce GTX 1050 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, the RTX A2000 has a slightly lower TDP at 70 W when compared to the GeForce GTX 1050 at 75 W. Heat output doesn't match power consumption directly but, it's a good estimate.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the RTX A2000 is faster than the GeForce GTX 1050.
