Performance Comparison

About G3D Mark

🏆 Chipversus Verdict

⚠️ Generational Difference

The Radeon Pro WX 2100 is significantly newer (2017 vs 2010). The Radeon Pro WX 2100 likely supports modern features like Ray Tracing, Tensor Cores, and DLSS/FSR upscaling, which act as force multipliers for performance. The GeForce GTX 645 lacks this hardware feature set, limiting its longevity in modern titles despite any raw power similarities.

🚀 Performance Leadership

The GeForce GTX 645 is the superior choice for raw performance. It leads with a 0.5% higher G3D Mark score. However, the Radeon Pro WX 2100 offers more VRAM, which may be beneficial for texture-heavy scenarios at higher resolutions.
