Firepro W4190M vs NVS 810: 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 W4190M

2015

Why buy it

  • Draws 30W instead of 68W, a 38W reduction.

Trade-offs

  • Less VRAM, with 512 MB vs 4 GB for high-resolution textures and newer games.
  • 2015 hardware with 512 MB 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 1.7 G3D/$ (Unknown MSRP vs $700 MSRP).

NVS 810

2015

Why buy it

  • Delivers 100+% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 1.7 vs 0 G3D/$ ($700 MSRP vs Unknown MSRP).
  • 700% more VRAM for high-resolution textures and newer games (4 GB vs 512 MB).
  • More future proof: Maxwell (2014−2017) on 28nm with a newer platform for upcoming games.

Trade-offs

  • 2015 hardware with 4 GB of VRAM is already well past its comfortable zone for modern gaming, so it is hard to recommend now.
  • 126.7% higher power demand at 68W vs 30W.
