FirePro W600 vs GeForce GTX 760M 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.

FirePro W600 vs GeForce GTX 760M: 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 W600

2012

Why buy it

  • Delivers 100+% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 2.8 vs 0 G3D/$ ($599 MSRP vs Unknown MSRP).

Trade-offs

  • 2012 hardware with 2 GB of VRAM is already well past its comfortable zone for modern gaming, so it is hard to recommend now.
  • 36.4% higher power demand at 75W vs 55W.

GeForce GTX 760M

2013

Why buy it

  • Draws 55W instead of 75W, a 20W reduction.
  • More future proof: Kepler (2012−2018) on 28nm with a newer platform for upcoming games.

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 2.8 G3D/$ (Unknown MSRP vs $599 MSRP).
