GeForce GTX 1050 Ti vs Radeon 890M (integrated)

Speed and memory

The GeForce GTX 1050 Ti and the Radeon 890M (integrated) are within a few percent of each other for gaming in our model, so you will not see a difference in play.

The GeForce GTX 1050 Ti has 4 GB of video memory and the Radeon 890M (integrated) has shared GB. That is a small difference and unlikely to decide anything.

In our estimates for popular games at 1080p on High, the biggest gap is in Call of Duty (11 against 16 fps), and the smallest is in Red Dead Redemption 2 (21 against 22 fps). Games that are light enough to run above 200 fps on both cards show little difference at all.

Power and value

The GeForce GTX 1050 Ti is rated at 75 W and the Radeon 890M (integrated) at 28 W. With a mid-range processor that means a power supply of about 450 W for the first and 450 W for the second. The power draw is close enough that cooling and noise will be similar.

We do not have launch prices for both cards, so we cannot compare value. Check current listings for both.

Which one to buy

Choose the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti if you want the faster card, and it also has at least as much memory. It makes the most sense at 1440p and above, or on a monitor with a high refresh rate.

Choose the Radeon 890M (integrated) if the price gap matters more than the small speed difference, or if you want lower power draw and a quieter PC. Whichever you pick, check reviews for the games you play, because two cards with similar scores can differ in individual titles.
