GeForce MX250 vs GeForce GTX 1630 specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the GeForce GTX 1630 beats the GeForce MX250 in gaming performance.

In our comparison, the GeForce GTX 1630 has a significantly 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 1630 also has a significantly 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 MX250 has a significantly lower TDP at 10 W when compared to the GeForce GTX 1630 at 75 W. Heat output doesn't match power consumption directly but, it's a good estimate.

In terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the GeForce GTX 1630 is better than the GeForce MX250.
