FirePro 3D V3700

2014

Why buy it

✅Measures 168mm instead of 193mm, a 25mm shorter card that is more SFF-friendly.
✅More future proof: GCN 1.0 (2012−2020) on 28nm with a newer platform for upcoming games.

Trade-offs

❌Less VRAM, with 256 MB vs 512 MB for high-resolution textures and newer games.
❌Very weak future-proofing: 2014-era hardware with 256 MB of VRAM is already obsolete for modern gaming and is hard to recommend today.
❌
47.8% HIGHER MSRP
$99 MSRPvs$67 MSRP
❌Lower G3D Mark per dollar, at 1.8 vs 2.5 G3D/$ ($99 MSRP vs $67 MSRP).

Radeon HDG 4670

2010

Why buy it

✅Costs $32 less on MSRP ($67 MSRP vs $99 MSRP).
✅Delivers 40.3% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 2.5 vs 1.8 G3D/$ ($67 MSRP vs $99 MSRP).
✅100% more VRAM for high-resolution textures and newer games (512 MB vs 256 MB).

Trade-offs

❌Very weak future-proofing: 2010-era hardware with 512 MB of VRAM is already obsolete for modern gaming and is hard to recommend today.
❌14.9% longer card at 193mm vs 168mm.

Quick Answers

So, is FirePro 3D V3700 better than Radeon HDG 4670?

Yes, but this is not really about a huge raw performance gap. The broader synthetic picture is also very close at 179 vs 170 in G3D Mark. The bigger reason to prefer FirePro 3D V3700 is the overall package: you are getting a newer generation, no meaningful modern upscaling stack.

Which one is more future-proof for 2026 and beyond?

FirePro 3D V3700 is the more future-proof choice for 2026 and beyond. You are getting a newer 2014 generation instead of 2010, the stronger feature stack with no meaningful modern upscaling stack instead of FSR upscaling, and a 28nm process instead of 40nm. That broader feature stack should age better as more games lean on modern upscaling and frame-generation support.

Which one is the smarter buy today, not just the cheaper card?

FirePro 3D V3700 is the smarter buy by a wide margin. FirePro 3D V3700 is about 47.8% more expensive on MSRP at $99 MSRP versus $67 MSRP, and you are getting 5.3% higher G3D Mark. Radeon HDG 4670 really only makes sense now as a very cheap stopgap or a used-market placeholder.

Is Radeon HDG 4670 still worth buying for gaming in 2026?

No, not for a fresh gaming build. Radeon HDG 4670 is 2010 hardware with 512 MB of VRAM, 170 in G3D Mark, and FSR upscaling. That is simply too far behind to be an easy modern recommendation.
