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

GeForce Go 7900 GTX

2015

Why buy it

  • βœ…2.9% more average FPS across 48 tracked games in our benchmark data.
  • βœ…More future proof: Maxwell 2.0 (2014βˆ’2019) on 28nm with a newer platform for upcoming games.

Trade-offs

  • ❌Less VRAM, with 256 MB vs 1 GB for high-resolution textures and newer games.
  • ❌2015 hardware with 256 MB of VRAM is already well past its comfortable zone for modern gaming, so it is hard to recommend now.
  • ❌233.3% higher power demand at 250W vs 75W.

Radeon HD 6370M

2011

Why buy it

  • βœ…300% more VRAM for high-resolution textures and newer games (1 GB vs 256 MB).
  • βœ…Draws 75W instead of 250W, a 175W reduction.

Trade-offs

  • ❌Lower average FPS than GeForce Go 7900 GTX across 48 tracked games in our benchmark data.
  • ❌2011 hardware with 1 GB of VRAM is already well past its comfortable zone for modern gaming, so it is hard to recommend now.

Quick Answers
