GeForce GTX 670 vs Radeon 760M: 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 GTX 670

2012

Why buy it

  • 33.7% more average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
  • Delivers 100+% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 13.4 vs 0 G3D/$ ($399 MSRP vs Unknown MSRP).

Trade-offs

  • 2012 hardware with 4 GB of VRAM is already well past its comfortable zone for modern gaming, so it is hard to recommend now.
  • 1033.3% higher power demand at 170W vs 15W.

Radeon 760M

2024

Why buy it

  • Better long-term bet: RDNA 3.0 (2022−2026) on 4nm gives it a newer hardware base for upcoming games.
  • Draws 15W instead of 170W, a 155W reduction.
  • More future proof: RDNA 3.0 (2022−2026) on 4nm with a newer platform for upcoming games.

Trade-offs

  • Lower average FPS than GeForce GTX 670 across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
  • Lower G3D Mark per dollar, at 0 vs 13.4 G3D/$ (Unknown MSRP vs $399 MSRP).

Quick Answers

Which GPU is faster for gaming right now?
GeForce GTX 670 is the faster gaming card right now. In our data, it leads by 33.7% in average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data. PassMark G3D leans toward Radeon 760M instead at 5,449 vs 5,361, so for this question the real-game FPS result matters more than the synthetic split.
Which GPU is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond?
Radeon 760M is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond. The case is simple: the newer upscaling stack, FSR Upscaling / FSR 4 (2025) instead of no meaningful modern upscaling stack, a 4nm process instead of 28nm, 8 vs 0 ray-tracing units, and a newer 2024 generation instead of 2012. That gives it the more rounded hardware package for newer games.
Which GPU is the better buy today?
GeForce GTX 670 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, GeForce GTX 670 is the easier value choice. If you care more about 1080p and some 1440p headroom, Radeon 760M has the stronger long-term case.
