GeForce 770M vs P102-100: Pros, Cons & Final Verdict

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

GeForce 770M

2013

Why buy it

  • Draws 75W instead of 250W, a 175W reduction.

Trade-offs

  • Less VRAM, with 512 MB vs 2 GB for high-resolution textures and newer games.
  • 2013 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 5.5 G3D/$ (Unknown MSRP vs $600 MSRP).

P102-100

2018

Why buy it

  • Delivers 100+% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 5.5 vs 0 G3D/$ ($600 MSRP vs Unknown MSRP).
  • 300% more VRAM for high-resolution textures and newer games (2 GB vs 512 MB).
  • GeForce 770M is already obsolete for modern gaming, so P102-100 is the less risky modern option long term.

Trade-offs

  • 2018 hardware with 2 GB of VRAM already sits in legacy territory for modern games.
  • 233.3% higher power demand at 250W vs 75W.

Quick Answers

Which GPU is faster for gaming right now?
P102-100 is the faster gaming card right now based on the synthetic data we have. It leads by 1.7% in PassMark G3D (3,301 vs 3,246), which is the best performance signal available in this matchup.
Which GPU is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond?
P102-100 is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond. The case is simple: 2 GB vs 512 MB of VRAM, a 16nm process instead of 28nm, and a newer 2018 generation instead of 2013. That gives it more room for heavier textures and higher settings over time.
Which GPU is the better buy today?
P102-100 makes the most sense today based on the pricing and value data we have for this matchup.
