GeForce GTX 1660 Ti vs GeForce RTX 4050 Laptop specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the GeForce RTX 4050 Laptop GPU is faster than the GeForce GTX 1660 Ti in gaming.

The GeForce GTX 1660 Ti 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 1660 Ti 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 GeForce RTX 4050 Laptop has a significantly lower TDP at 50 W when compared to the GeForce GTX 1660 Ti 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.

In terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the GeForce RTX 4050 Laptop is better than the GeForce GTX 1660 Ti.
