FirePro M5100 vs Moore Threads MTT S70: 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 M5100

2013

Why buy it

  • 300% more VRAM for high-resolution textures and newer games (2 GB vs 512 MB).
  • Draws 150W instead of 220W, a 70W reduction.
  • Measures 82mm instead of 285mm, a 203mm shorter card that is more SFF-friendly.

Trade-offs

  • 2013 hardware with 2 GB of VRAM is already well past its comfortable zone for modern gaming, so it is hard to recommend now.
  • Lower G3D Mark per dollar, at 0 vs 5.4 G3D/$ (Unknown MSRP vs $345 MSRP).

Moore Threads MTT S70

Why buy it

  • Delivers 100+% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 5.4 vs 0 G3D/$ ($345 MSRP vs Unknown MSRP).
  • FirePro M5100 is already obsolete for modern gaming, so Moore Threads MTT S70 is the less risky modern option long term.

Trade-offs

  • Less VRAM, with 512 MB vs 2 GB for high-resolution textures and newer games.
  • Older hardware with 512 MB of VRAM already sits in legacy territory for modern games.
  • 46.7% higher power demand at 220W vs 150W.
  • 247.6% longer card at 285mm vs 82mm.
