About G3D Mark

🏆 Chipversus Verdict

⚠️ Generational Difference

The Qualcomm SD X Adreno X1-45 1.7 TFLOPS is significantly newer (2024 vs 2016). The Qualcomm SD X Adreno X1-45 1.7 TFLOPS likely supports modern features like Ray Tracing, Tensor Cores, and DLSS/FSR upscaling, which act as force multipliers for performance. The GRID M10-4Q lacks this hardware feature set, limiting its longevity in modern titles despite any raw power similarities.

🚀 Performance Leadership

The Qualcomm SD X Adreno X1-45 1.7 TFLOPS is the superior choice for raw performance. It leads with a 0.8% higher G3D Mark score. However, the GRID M10-4Q offers more VRAM, which may be beneficial for texture-heavy scenarios at higher resolutions.
