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 4070

2023

Why buy it

  • 350.4% more average FPS across 44 tracked games in our benchmark data.
  • Delivers 387% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 44.9 vs 9.2 G3D/$ ($599 MSRP vs $399 MSRP).
  • Access to a newer frame-generation stack with DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation (2023).
  • 200% more VRAM for high-resolution textures and newer games (12 GB vs 4 GB).
  • More future proof: Ada Lovelace (2022−2024) on 5nm with a newer platform for upcoming games.

Trade-offs

  • 300% higher power demand at 200W vs 50W.

Radeon Pro WX 4100

2016

Why buy it

  • Costs $200 less on MSRP ($399 MSRP vs $599 MSRP).
  • Draws 50W instead of 200W, a 150W reduction.

Trade-offs

  • Lower average FPS than GeForce RTX 4070 across 44 tracked games in our benchmark data.
  • Less VRAM, with 4 GB vs 12 GB for high-resolution textures and newer games.
  • No equivalent frame-generation stack like DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation (2023).
  • Very weak future-proofing: 2016-era hardware with 4 GB of VRAM is already obsolete for modern gaming and is hard to recommend today.
  • Lower G3D Mark per dollar, at 9.2 vs 44.9 G3D/$ ($399 MSRP vs $599 MSRP).

Quick Answers

So, is GeForce RTX 4070 better than Radeon Pro WX 4100?
Yes. GeForce RTX 4070 is clearly the better overall GPU here. GeForce RTX 4070 averages 350.4% more FPS across 44 tracked games in our benchmark data. You are also looking at 26,919 vs 3,682 in G3D Mark. On top of that, GeForce RTX 4070 is a 2023 card with DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation, while Radeon Pro WX 4100 is a 2016 model from an older generation with FSR upscaling. 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 4070 is the more future-proof choice for 2026 and beyond. You are getting a newer 2023 generation instead of 2016, 631.1% more raw performance headroom, more VRAM at 12 GB instead of 4 GB, and better frame-generation support with DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation (2023) instead of FSR upscaling. That leaves it with more room for heavier textures, tougher ray tracing loads, and higher-end 1440p or 4K gaming over the next few years.
Which one is the smarter buy today, not just the cheaper card?
GeForce RTX 4070 is the smarter buy by a wide margin. GeForce RTX 4070 is about 50.1% more expensive on MSRP at $599 MSRP versus $399 MSRP, and you are getting 350.4% more estimated average FPS across 44 tracked games in our benchmark data and 631.1% higher G3D Mark. Radeon Pro WX 4100 really only makes sense now as a very cheap stopgap or a used-market placeholder.
Is Radeon Pro WX 4100 still worth buying for gaming in 2026?
No, not for a fresh gaming build. Radeon Pro WX 4100 is 2016 hardware with 4 GB of VRAM, 3,682 in G3D Mark, and FSR upscaling. That is simply too far behind to be an easy modern recommendation.

Advanced Features (DLSS/FSR)

A critical advantage for the GeForce RTX 4070 is support for DLSS 3.5 + Frame Generation. This allows it to generate entire frames using AI/Algorithms, essentially doubling the frame rate in CPU-bound scenarios or heavy ray-tracing titles. The Radeon Pro WX 4100 lacks specific hardware/driver support for this native frame generation tier.The GeForce RTX 4070 gives access to NVIDIA DLSS (Deep Learning Super Sampling), widely regarding as the superior upscaling method for image quality. The Radeon Pro WX 4100 relies on FSR (FidelityFX Super Resolution), which is capable but generally slightly noisier than DLSS in motion.
