Radeon R7 450 vs Radeon HD 8570 benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the Radeon R7 450 beats the Radeon HD 8570 in gaming performance.

In our comparison, the Radeon R7 450 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.

Furthermore, the spec sheet for both these GPUs show that 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 Radeon R7 450 has a slightly lower TDP at 65 W when compared to the Radeon HD 8570 at 66 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 terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the Radeon R7 450 is better than the Radeon HD 8570.
