(I compared mobile chips since the most powerful GT4 can only be found in the mobile chips.)
It's only slightly behind the 1030 which costs $73.
- Synaesthesia 9y agoThey’re on par with laptop discrete GPU’s with a low power envelope. The sort that would fit into a Macbook Pro. The 1050 uses 70w.
- unsigner 9y agoLook at it another way: no Intel iGPU is on par with any discrete GPU, because in price segments where iGPUs appear, discrete GPUs tend to vanish in a matter of 1-2 years. There used to be a significant number of NVIDIA Geforce MX420/440s, 5200s and 6200s. Then much fewer 730s. Now 1030s are practically only in laptops. Intel has been nibbling away at this market slowly, but steadly for a decade.
