GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER vs Radeon Pro W5500 benchmarks

For gaming, the GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER graphics card is better than the Radeon Pro W5500 in our tests.

The Radeon Pro W5500 has a slightly 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 Radeon Pro W5500 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, both the GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER and the Radeon Pro W5500 have an identical TDP. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

In conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER over the Radeon Pro W5500.
