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.

FirePro 3D V7800 vs Intel UHD Graphics P630: Pros, Cons & Final Verdict

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

FirePro 3D V7800

2014

Why buy it

  • 100+% more VRAM for high-resolution textures and newer games (2 GB vs Unknown).
  • Intel UHD Graphics P630 is already obsolete for modern gaming, so FirePro 3D V7800 is the less risky modern option long term.

Trade-offs

  • 2014 hardware with 2 GB of VRAM is already well past its comfortable zone for modern gaming, so it is hard to recommend now.
  • 659% HIGHER MSRP
    $759 MSRPvs$100 MSRP
  • Lower G3D Mark per dollar, at 2.5 vs 18.5 G3D/$ ($759 MSRP vs $100 MSRP).
  • 1726.7% higher power demand at 274W vs 15W.

Intel UHD Graphics P630

2018

Why buy it

  • Costs $659 less on MSRP ($100 MSRP vs $759 MSRP).
