GeForce GTX 1660 vs Arc A350M comparison

For gaming, the GeForce GTX 1660 graphics card is better than the Arc A350M in our tests.

In our comparison, the GeForce GTX 1660 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 1660 also has a significantly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

In addition, the Arc A350M has a significantly lower TDP at 25 W when compared to the GeForce GTX 1660 at 120 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 GeForce GTX 1660 is faster than the Arc A350M.
