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 770M SLI

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.
  • 328.6% higher power demand at 150W vs 35W.

Radeon Pro 450

2016

Why buy it

  • Draws 35W instead of 150W, a 115W reduction.
  • More future proof: GCN 4.0 (2016−2020) on 14nm with a newer platform for upcoming games.

Trade-offs

  • Very weak future-proofing: 2016-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 770M SLI better than Radeon Pro 450?
Yes, but this is not really about a huge raw performance gap. The broader synthetic picture is also very close at 2,803 vs 2,723 in G3D Mark. The bigger reason to prefer GeForce GTX 770M SLI is the overall package: you are getting no meaningful modern upscaling stack.
Which one is more future-proof for 2026 and beyond?
GeForce GTX 770M SLI 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 770M SLI can still make sense if you find it at the right price, especially around Unknown MSRP. GeForce GTX 770M SLI is still the smarter buy for most people, though, because the raw performance is close while the overall package is cleaner. GeForce GTX 770M SLI is priced in an unclear MSRP range at an unclear MSRP versus an unclear MSRP, and you are getting 2.9% higher G3D Mark. Radeon Pro 450 is the newer 2016 card, so it still has a real case if you care more about newer architecture and lower power draw (35W vs 150W) than about squeezing out the strongest gaming value today.
When does Radeon Pro 450 make more sense than GeForce GTX 770M SLI?
Yes. Radeon Pro 450 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 (35W vs 150W), and staying closer to an unclear MSRP more than squeezing out the extra headroom of GeForce GTX 770M SLI. The trade-off is that GeForce GTX 770M SLI currently gives you 2.9% higher G3D Mark. G3D-per-dollar is basically tied between them.

Games Benchmarks

Real-world benchmarks and performance projections based on comprehensive hardware analysis and comparative metrics. Values represent expected performance on High/Ultra settings at 1080p, 1440p, and 4K. Modeled using a Ryzen 7 9800X3D reference profile to minimize specific CPU bottlenecks.

Note: Performance behavior can vary per game. Specific architectures may perform better or worse depending on game engine optimizations and API implementation.
