GeForce GTX 1050 Laptop vs Radeon R7 370: In-Depth Breakdown
Performance: GeForce GTX 1050 Laptop vs Radeon R7 370
The GeForce GTX 1050 Laptop is dramatically faster, around 400% ahead of the Radeon R7 370. Both cards sit in the same broad class, well suited to entry-level 1080p.
Price & Value
Right now the Radeon R7 370 starts at $485 GBP against $799 GBP for the GeForce GTX 1050 Laptop. The Radeon R7 370 still sits about $336 GBP above its $149 GBP MSRP.
Power & Efficiency
The GeForce GTX 1050 Laptop draws just 53W versus 110W for the Radeon R7 370, and it also delivers more performance per watt — so it runs cooler and quieter and needs less PSU headroom. Its more modern Pascal architecture on a Samsung 14nm process is part of why it does more with each watt.
VRAM & Future-Proofing
With 4GB against 2GB, the GeForce GTX 1050 Laptop has more headroom for 4K textures and memory-hungry creative/AI tasks where the Radeon R7 370's 2GB can fall short.
Generation & Longevity
The GeForce GTX 1050 Laptop is roughly 2 years newer than the Radeon R7 370 (Pascal vs GCN 1.0), so it generally benefits from a more modern architecture and longer driver-support runway.
Features & Ecosystem
Beyond raw numbers, the GeForce GTX 1050 Laptop brings NVIDIA DLSS upscaling/frame generation and stronger ray tracing, while the Radeon R7 370 offers AMD FSR upscaling and strong rasterization value. If you lean on upscaling or ray tracing, that ecosystem difference can matter as much as the frame-rate gap.
Which should you buy: GeForce GTX 1050 Laptop or Radeon R7 370?
The GeForce GTX 1050 Laptop is the faster card by about 400%. With live pricing limited for this pair, base your decision on the spec differences above — particularly VRAM and power draw — and check current stock before buying.
