Need For Speed Heat is a successful title that belongs to the popular series. The game has most of the “ingredients” for a good racing arcade title – beautiful graphics, a good soundtrack, a lot of cars, tons of customizations, fun gameplay, and police pursuits.

As we said, graphically-wise, the game looks beautiful thanks to the Frostbite 3 engine. Interestingly enough, the title isn’t too heavy. Need For Speed Heat looks like a well-optimized title and in most cases, a decent mid-range GPU is enough for 60 FPS on Ultra settings. For this article, we have picked two RTX GPUs – the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Ti (75W) and RTX 3050 (55W).

Verdict

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Ti (75W) is 17% faster on average compared to the RTX 3050 (55W). The 75W video card is the better choice (at least when it comes to Need For Speed Heat) if the price difference between the two GPUs isn’t too big. On the other hand, the performance of the 55W GPU is absolutely adequate and it can show 64 FPS on Ultra quality which may be enough for a lot of gamers out there.
