gtx 1050m 4gb performs worse then nvidia MX150 4gb

[chizilow]

have two laptops one has mx150 and i7 8650u, other has gtx1050 and i5 7300hq. so i installed on both minecraft with the same shaders but the mx150 performs better then gtx1050 with no setting changes checked for thermal throttling there is none, the cooling is good for the gtx 1050 but i think a little lacking for the mx150, cpu bottle neck none, so is the MX150 better or is there a problem cuz i checked  gtx1050 is better then mx150. i need help with this

the MX150 refers to multiple GPUs actually, there's no one set spec (which is frustrating). In a laptop, the biggest factor for GPU performance when comparing two similar products is the power allotted to the GPU. If the MX150 that you have on hand has a similar CUDA core count to the 1050, and has a higher power budget, I am sure it's clocking much higher for that reason and performing better.

Which GPU is being used by Minecraft? If I recall last time I ran it on a laptop I struggled to get it to use the right GPU.

 

You can check using the "GPU engine" column in Task Manager. If it's not there right click the column names and a menu will open where you can add it. The Performance tab will show you which GPU is which. My screenshot probably looks different because it's the new Windows 11 Task Manager, but the options are there in Windows 10.

Do you mean 7300U as I cannot find such a CPU as a 7300m?

 

The 8650U is potentially a lot faster than a 7300U for multi-threaded workloads and a bit faster single-threaded, so there could also be a CPU bottleneck.  Though if were talking Java edition I suspect its mostly single-core so not much difference between them there, although if you applied one of the mods its hard to say how multi-threaded it might be.

Minecraft isnt that gpu intensive and the i7 8650u is A LOT faster than a 7300u

i meant i5 7300hq
