In terms of overall gaming performance, the graphical capabilities of the AMD Radeon X1050 are noticeably better than the AMD Radeon 9200 Series.

The Radeon X1050 was released over three years more recently than the Radeon 9200 Series, and so the Radeon X1050 is likely to have far better driver support, meaning it will be much more optimized and ultimately superior to the Radeon 9200 Series when running the latest games.

Both GPUs exhibit very poor performance, so rather than upgrading from one to the other you should consider looking at more powerful GPUs. Neither of these will be able to run the latest games in any playable way.

The Radeon X1050 and the Radeon 9200 Series have the same amount of video memory, but are likely to provide slightly different experiences when displaying game textures at high resolutions.

The Radeon X1050 has 2.1 GB/sec greater memory bandwidth than the Radeon 9200 Series, which means that the memory performance of the Radeon X1050 is marginally better than the Radeon 9200 Series.

Both the Radeon X1050 and the Radeon 9200 Series have 4 Shader Processing Units. The two GPUs are based on different architectures, but deliver an equivalent shader performance. To compare, we must continue to look at the memory bandwidth, Texture and Pixel Rates. In this case, we sadly do not have enough data in this area to complete the comparison.

The Radeon X1050 requires 24 Watts to run but there is no entry for the Radeon 9200 Series. We would recommend a PSU with at least 300 Watts for the Radeon X1050.
