GeForce GTX 1650 Ti Max-Q vs GeForce GTX 1060 3GB benchmarks

For gaming, the GeForce GTX 1650 Ti Max-Q graphics card is better than the GeForce GTX 1060 3GB in our tests.

In our comparison, the GeForce GTX 1060 3GB 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 1060 3GB 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 1650 Ti Max-Q has a significantly lower TDP at 35 W when compared to the GeForce GTX 1060 3GB at 120 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 1650 Ti Max-Q is faster than the GeForce GTX 1060 3GB.
