[FPS Benchmarks] For Honor on NVIDIA GeForce MX450 (GDDR6/25W) and MX350 (25W) – MX450 is 52% faster
For Honor isn’t the newest game out there but it has good graphics and fun gameplay that is kind of unique even in 2022. When it comes to system requirements, the game scores somewhere in the middle – it’s not too heavy but if you need more FPS, especially on Extreme quality you’re going to need a decent GPU.
For this comparison we decided to pick two decent inexpensive dedicated video cards – the NVIDIA GeForce MX450 (GDDR6/25W) and MX350 (25W). They both have equal TGPs so it’ll be easy to see what is the actual performance difference between them.
