GeForce GT 750M Mac Edition vs GRID T4-1Q: 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 GT 750M Mac Edition

2013

Why buy it

  • Costs $1,731 less on MSRP ($149 MSRP vs $1,880 MSRP).
  • Delivers 1164.8% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 22.2 vs 1.8 G3D/$ ($149 MSRP vs $1,880 MSRP).
  • Draws 50W instead of 225W, a 175W reduction.

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.

GRID T4-1Q

2015

Why buy it

  • More future proof: Maxwell 2.0 (2014−2019) on 28nm with a newer platform for upcoming games.

Trade-offs
