[FPS Benchmarks] League Of Legends on NVIDIA GeForce MX450 (GDDR6/25W) and MX350 (25W) – MX450 is 20% faster
League Of Legends is one of the most popular MOBA games ever. And yes, the game was released back in 2019 but now it evolved to an esports title because of its huge success. The title is developed by Riot Games and it’s not greedy for system resources.
League Of Legends can run well on almost any modern iGPU, literally. It runs whitout6 a problem on most of the non-expensive dGPU with lowered power limits. Just like the two GPUs that we have prepared for this article – the NVIDIA GeForce MX450 (GDDR6/25W) and MX350 (25W). Both don’t cost much and they can be found in a large variety of inexpensive devices. So, let’s inspect their performance.

GeForce MX350 (25W) | 217 fps | 195 fps | 176 fps |
Verdict
Expectedly, the NVIDIA GeForce MX450 (GDDR6/25W) is 20% faster compared to the GeForce MX350 (25W). That’s normal because the NVIDIA GeForce MX450 (GDDR6/25W) has more CUDA cores and that leads to better perfoarmance. On the other hand, the smaller GPU is able to show 176 FPS on Very High quality which should be enough for most players.
