HD vs GeForce RTX 4050 Laptop specs and performance

For gaming, the GeForce RTX 4050 Laptop graphics card is better than the HD in our tests.

The GeForce RTX 4050 Laptop 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 RTX 4050 Laptop also has a significantly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

In addition, the HD has a significantly lower TDP at 6 W when compared to the GeForce RTX 4050 Laptop at 50 W. This is not a measure of performance, but rather the amount of heat generated by the chip when running at its highest speed.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the GeForce RTX 4050 Laptop is faster than the HD.
