CMP 30HX vs GeForce GTX 460 768MB Performance Spectrum

About G3D Mark

G3D Mark is a standard benchmark that measures graphics performance in real-world gaming scenarios. It simplifies comparing cards from different brands, where higher scores directly correlate with better fps and smoother gaming experiences.

CMP 30HX vs GeForce GTX 460 768MB: Pros, Cons & Final Verdict

See where each GPU makes more sense in practice: raw FPS, VRAM, features, power draw, pricing, and long-term headroom.

CMP 30HX

2021

Why buy it

  • Delivers 100+% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 6.1 vs 0 G3D/$ ($799 MSRP vs Unknown MSRP).
  • GeForce GTX 460 768MB is already legacy-tier future-proofing, so CMP 30HX is the less risky modern option long term.
  • More future proof: Turing (2018−2022) on 12nm with a newer platform for upcoming games.

Trade-offs

  • Older hardware, 2 GB of VRAM, and weaker feature support mean it will age faster in newer AAA releases.
  • 66.7% higher power demand at 125W vs 75W.

GeForce GTX 460 768MB

Why buy it

  • Draws 75W instead of 125W, a 50W reduction.
  • Measures 210mm instead of 229mm, a 19mm shorter card that is more SFF-friendly.

Trade-offs

  • Older hardware with 2 GB of VRAM already sits in legacy territory for modern games.
  • Lower G3D Mark per dollar, at 0 vs 6.1 G3D/$ (Unknown MSRP vs $799 MSRP).

Quick Answers
