GeForce RTX 3050 Ti Laptop vs GeForce GTX 860M comparison

For gaming, the GeForce RTX 3050 Ti Laptop graphics card is better than the GeForce GTX 860M in our tests.

In our comparison, the GeForce RTX 3050 Ti Laptop 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 GeForce RTX 3050 Ti Laptop also has a slightly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

In addition, both the GeForce RTX 3050 Ti Laptop and the GeForce GTX 860M have an identical TDP. 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 RTX 3050 Ti Laptop is faster than the GeForce GTX 860M.
