About G3D Mark

G3D Mark is a standard benchmark that measures graphics performance in real-world gaming scenarios. It simplifies comparing cards from different brands, where higher scores directly correlate with better fps and smoother gaming experiences.

Head-to-Head Verdict, Benchmarks, Value & Long-Term Outlook

This comparison brings together gaming FPS, raw graphics performance, VRAM, feature set, power efficiency, pricing context, and long-term value so you can see which GPU actually makes more sense.

GeForce GTX 680M KY_Bullet Edition

2013

Why buy it

  • Competitive enough if your priority is price, power, or specific feature preference.

Trade-offs

  • Very weak future-proofing: 2013-era hardware with 2 GB of VRAM is already obsolete for modern gaming and is hard to recommend today.
  • Lower G3D Mark per dollar, at 0 vs 7.0 G3D/$ (Unknown MSRP vs $500 MSRP).
  • 62.7% higher power demand at 122W vs 75W.

Radeon Pro 560

2017

Why buy it

  • Delivers 100+% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 7.0 vs 0 G3D/$ ($500 MSRP vs Unknown MSRP).
  • Draws 75W instead of 122W, a 47W reduction.
  • More future proof: GCN 4.0 (2016−2020) on 14nm with a newer platform for upcoming games.

Trade-offs

  • Very weak future-proofing: 2017-era hardware with 2 GB of VRAM is already obsolete for modern gaming and is hard to recommend today.

Quick Answers

So, is GeForce GTX 680M KY_Bullet Edition better than Radeon Pro 560?
Yes, but this is not really about a huge raw performance gap. The broader synthetic picture is also very close at 3,569 vs 3,475 in G3D Mark. The bigger reason to prefer GeForce GTX 680M KY_Bullet Edition is the overall package: you are getting no meaningful modern upscaling stack.
Which one is more future-proof for 2026 and beyond?
GeForce GTX 680M KY_Bullet Edition is the more future-proof choice for 2026 and beyond. You are getting the stronger feature stack with no meaningful modern upscaling stack instead of FSR upscaling. That broader feature stack should age better as more games lean on modern upscaling and frame-generation support.
Which one is the smarter buy today, not just the cheaper card?
GeForce GTX 680M KY_Bullet Edition is the smarter buy by a wide margin. GeForce GTX 680M KY_Bullet Edition is priced in an unclear MSRP range at an unclear MSRP versus $500 MSRP, and you are getting 2.7% higher G3D Mark. Radeon Pro 560 really only makes sense now as a very cheap stopgap or a used-market placeholder.
When does Radeon Pro 560 make more sense than GeForce GTX 680M KY_Bullet Edition?
Yes. Radeon Pro 560 is still an excellent gaming GPU in 2026: it is still comfortable for 1080p and decent for 1440p, though 4K is more situational. It makes more sense if your priority is newer architecture, lower power draw (75W vs 122W), and staying closer to $500 MSRP more than squeezing out the extra headroom of GeForce GTX 680M KY_Bullet Edition. The trade-off is that GeForce GTX 680M KY_Bullet Edition currently gives you 2.7% higher G3D Mark. Radeon Pro 560 still holds the G3D-per-dollar lead, so the performance win comes with a real value premium.
