Radeon R7 450 vs GeForce GTX 750 benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the GeForce GTX 750 beats the Radeon R7 450 in gaming performance.

The Radeon R7 450 has a slightly 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.

As stated by the manufacturer, they both have the same amount of memory at 2 GiB. Lots of memory is good when playing at high resolutions or with many monitors.

In addition, the GeForce GTX 750 has a slightly lower TDP at 55 W when compared to the Radeon R7 450 at 65 W. This is not a measure of performance, but rather the amount of heat generated by the chip when running at its highest speed.

In conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the GeForce GTX 750 over the Radeon R7 450.
