Radeon R7 450 vs Radeon Vega 6 specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the Radeon Vega 6 GPU is faster than the Radeon R7 450 in gaming.

Our database shows that 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.

In addition, the Radeon Vega 6 has a significantly lower TDP at 45 W when compared to the Radeon R7 450 at 65 W. Heat output doesn't match power consumption directly but, it's a good estimate.

In terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the Radeon Vega 6 is better than the Radeon R7 450.
