Qualcomm Adreno 732 vs NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti Max-Q vs Qualcomm Adreno 720
Qualcomm Adreno 732
► remove from comparison
The Qualcomm Adreno 732 is an integrated graphics unit that is used in the Snapdragon 7+ Gen 3 and is designed for smartphones and tablets. The associated SoC (system-on-a-chip) was introduced in March 2024 and can be found in many Android-based products in the upper mid-range and premium class.
According to rumors Qualcomm clocks the graphics chip at up to 950 MHz and uses two pipelines.
The performance is slightly above the Adreno 730 and below the 735 in our tests (as the name also suggests).
The Adreno 732 supports Vulkan 1.3, OpenGL ES 3.2, OpenCL 2.0 and DirectX 12.1. AI upscaling should make it possible to increase frame rates and improve the efficiency of some graphic effects without any major battery load.
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti Max-Q
► remove from comparison
The Nvidia GTX 1050 Ti with Max-Q design is a power efficient mainstream GPU for laptops based on the Pascal architecture and was announced in January 2017. Contrary to the faster models, the GTX 1050 uses the GP107 chip, which is manufactured in a 14 nm process at Samsung.
The clock is not the only difference compared to the regular GTX 1050 Ti though. The drivers for the Max-Q version were optimized for efficiency (and not performance; only for Max-Q models), there are optimized voltage converters for 1V operation, high-end cooling methods, and a 40 dB limit for the fan noise (with clock adjustments to ensure this at all times).
Features
The GP107 chip is manufactured in a 14 nm FinFET process at Samsung and offers a number of new features, including support for DisplayPort 1.4 (ready), HDMI 2.0b, HDR, Simultaneous Multi-Projection (SMP) as well as improved H.265 video de- and encoding (PlayReady 3.0). A full list of improvements and the new Pascal desktop GPUs is available in our dedicated Pascal architecture article.
Performance
The performance of the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti can vary quite a lot depending on the cooling performance of the laptop. Nvidia states that the Max-Q variant should be about 10 to 15% slower than a regular GTX 1050 Ti for laptops. Therefore, the GPU is most suited for Full HD and high quality settings for games of 2016.
Power Consumption
The power consumption of the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti with Max-Q design is rated at 40 to 46 Watt and therefore a lot lower than a regular GTX 1050 Ti for laptops (53 Watt). This means that the Max-Q GTX 1050 Ti is also suited for thin and light laptops.
Qualcomm Adreno 720

The Adreno 720 is a graphics unit for smartphones and tablets, which was first used in the Qualcomm Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 was installed. The chip was introduced at the end of 2023 and is primarily used in Android-based upper mid-range devices.
HDR gaming with 10-bit color depth is possible with the graphics chip, and the Adreno 720 also supports the APIs OpenGL ES 3.2, OpenCL 2.0 FP and Vulkan 1.3.
The GPU is capable of driving WFHD+ displays at up to 168 Hz and 4K displays at 60 Hz and offers support for HDR10+, HLG and Dolby Vision.
