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 RTX 3050 8GB

2022

Why buy it

  • Delivers 100+% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 50.3 vs 0 G3D/$ ($249 MSRP vs Unknown MSRP).
  • Access to DLSS 2 Super Resolution (2020).
  • More future proof: Ampere (2020−2025) on 8nm with a newer platform for upcoming games.
  • Draws 130W instead of 300W, a 170W reduction.
  • Measures 242mm instead of 267mm, a 25mm shorter card that is more SFF-friendly.

Trade-offs

  • Lower PassMark G3D performance (12,535 vs 15,633).
  • Less VRAM, with 8 GB vs 32 GB for high-resolution textures and newer games.

Radeon Pro V620 MxGPU

2018

Why buy it

  • +24.7% higher PassMark G3D performance.
  • 300% more VRAM for high-resolution textures and newer games (32 GB vs 8 GB).

Trade-offs

  • No DLSS support; it relies on FSR Upscaling / FSR 4 (2025) instead.
  • Limited future-proofing: older hardware, 32 GB of VRAM, and weaker feature support mean it will age faster in upcoming AAA games.
  • Lower G3D Mark per dollar, at 0 vs 50.3 G3D/$ (Unknown MSRP vs $249 MSRP).
  • 130.8% higher power demand at 300W vs 130W.

Quick Answers

So, is Radeon Pro V620 MxGPU better than GeForce RTX 3050 8GB?
Yes. Radeon Pro V620 MxGPU is clearly the better overall GPU here. You are also looking at 15,633 vs 12,535 in G3D Mark. On top of that, Radeon Pro V620 MxGPU is a 2018 card with FSR upscaling, while GeForce RTX 3050 8GB is a 2022 model from an older generation with DLSS Super Resolution. So this is not really a tight same-tier comparison. It is more a modern card against an older, weaker alternative.
Which one is more future-proof for 2026 and beyond?
GeForce RTX 3050 8GB is the more future-proof choice for 2026 and beyond. You are getting a newer 2022 generation instead of 2018, the stronger feature stack with DLSS Super Resolution instead of FSR upscaling, and a 8nm process instead of 14nm. 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?
Radeon Pro V620 MxGPU is priced in an unclear MSRP range at an unclear MSRP versus $249 MSRP, and you are getting 24.7% higher G3D Mark. GeForce RTX 3050 8GB still holds the G3D-per-dollar lead, so the performance win comes with a real value premium. If you are comfortable paying the premium for the stronger gaming result, Radeon Pro V620 MxGPU is the one to buy. If staying closer to budget matters more, GeForce RTX 3050 8GB still makes more sense on price alone, but the performance trade-off is much harder to justify by current standards.
When does GeForce RTX 3050 8GB make more sense than Radeon Pro V620 MxGPU?
Yes. GeForce RTX 3050 8GB is still an excellent gaming GPU in 2026: it is very strong for 1080p, good for 1440p, and more limited at 4K. It makes more sense if your priority is newer architecture, lower power draw (130W vs 300W), future-proofing, and staying closer to $249 MSRP more than squeezing out the extra headroom of Radeon Pro V620 MxGPU. The trade-off is that Radeon Pro V620 MxGPU currently gives you 24.7% higher G3D Mark. GeForce RTX 3050 8GB still holds the G3D-per-dollar lead, so the performance win comes with a real value premium.
