Radeon RX 550 vs GeForce MX130 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the Radeon RX 550 GPU is faster than the GeForce MX130 in gaming.

Our database shows that the GeForce MX130 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 MX130 also has a slightly higher boost clock speed. The boost clock speed is the frequency that the GPU core can reach if the temperature is low enough. The allows for higher performance in certain scenarios.

In addition, the GeForce MX130 has a significantly lower TDP at 30 W when compared to the Radeon RX 550 at 50 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 RX 550 is better than the GeForce MX130.
