Radeon Vega 8 vs GeForce RTX 3050 Ti Laptop benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the GeForce RTX 3050 Ti Laptop beats the Radeon Vega 8 in gaming performance.

The GeForce RTX 3050 Ti 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. Despite this, the Radeon Vega 8 has a slightly higher boost clock speed. This is a frequency that can be reached if the GPU is cooled sufficiently and has enough power.

In conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the GeForce RTX 3050 Ti Laptop over the Radeon Vega 8.
