GRID K260Q vs Radeon Pro V340 MxGPU Performance Spectrum

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.

GRID K260Q vs Radeon Pro V340 MxGPU: Pros, Cons & Final Verdict

See where each GPU makes more sense in practice: raw FPS, VRAM, features, power draw, pricing, and long-term headroom.

GRID K260Q

2013

Why buy it

  • Delivers 100+% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 3.1 vs 0 G3D/$ ($937 MSRP vs Unknown MSRP).
  • Draws 225W instead of 300W, a 75W reduction.

Trade-offs

  • 2013 hardware with 2 GB of VRAM is already well past its comfortable zone for modern gaming, so it is hard to recommend now.

Radeon Pro V340 MxGPU

2018

Why buy it

  • GRID K260Q is already obsolete for modern gaming, so Radeon Pro V340 MxGPU is the less risky modern option long term.
  • More future proof: GCN 5.0 (2017−2020) on 14nm with a newer platform for upcoming games.

Trade-offs

  • 2018 hardware with 2 GB of VRAM already sits in legacy territory for modern games.
  • Lower G3D Mark per dollar, at 0 vs 3.1 G3D/$ (Unknown MSRP vs $937 MSRP).
  • 33.3% higher power demand at 300W vs 225W.

Quick Answers

Which GPU is faster for gaming right now?
GRID K260Q is the faster gaming card right now based on the synthetic data we have. It leads by 3.4% in PassMark G3D (2,949 vs 2,853), which is the best performance signal available in this matchup.
Which GPU is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond?
Radeon Pro V340 MxGPU 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 14nm process instead of 28nm, and a newer 2018 generation instead of 2013. That makes it the less risky pick as game demands keep moving.
Which GPU is the better buy today?
GRID K260Q 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, GRID K260Q is the easier value choice. If you care more about 1080p and some 1440p headroom, Radeon Pro V340 MxGPU has the stronger long-term case.
