GeForce MX250 vs Radeon Vega 6 comparison

For gaming, the GeForce MX250 graphics card is better than the Radeon Vega 6 in our tests.

Our database shows that the GeForce MX250 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. Despite this, the Radeon Vega 6 has a significantly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

In addition, the GeForce MX250 has a significantly lower TDP at 10 W when compared to the Radeon Vega 6 at 45 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the GeForce MX250 is faster than the Radeon Vega 6.
