GeForce 930M vs Radeon HD 6700M: 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 930M

2015

Why buy it

✅Draws 33W instead of 75W, a 42W reduction.
✅More future proof: Maxwell (2014−2017) on 28nm with a newer platform for upcoming games.

Trade-offs

❌Lower average FPS than Radeon HD 6700M across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
❌2015 hardware with 512 MB of VRAM is already well past its comfortable zone for modern gaming, so it is hard to recommend now.

Radeon HD 6700M

2011

Why buy it

✅16.6% more average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.

Trade-offs

❌2011 hardware with 512 MB of VRAM is already well past its comfortable zone for modern gaming, so it is hard to recommend now.
❌127.3% higher power demand at 75W vs 33W.

Quick Answers

Which GPU is faster for gaming right now?

Radeon HD 6700M is the faster gaming card right now. In our data, it leads by 16.6% in average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data and by 0.6% in PassMark G3D (1,017 vs 1,011), so the answer here is pretty clean.

Which GPU is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond?

GeForce 930M is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond. The case is simple: a 28nm process instead of 40nm and a newer 2015 generation instead of 2011. That makes it the less risky pick as game demands keep moving.

Which GPU is the better buy today?

Radeon HD 6700M makes the most sense today based on the pricing and value data we have for this matchup. If you are mainly targeting 1080p and some 1440p, Radeon HD 6700M is the easier value choice. If you care more about 1080p and some 1440p headroom, GeForce 930M has the stronger long-term case.
