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 M6-0B vs Radeon HD 4770: 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 M6-0B

2015

Why buy it

  • ✅Measures 1mm instead of 203mm, a 202mm shorter card that is more SFF-friendly.
  • ✅More future proof: Maxwell 2.0 (2014−2019) on 28nm with a newer platform for upcoming games.

Trade-offs

  • ❌2015 hardware with 512 MB of VRAM is already well past its comfortable zone for modern gaming, so it is hard to recommend now.
  • ❌
    1276.1% HIGHER MSRP
    $1,500 MSRPvs$109 MSRP
  • ❌Lower G3D Mark per dollar, at 0.6 vs 8.3 G3D/$ ($1,500 MSRP vs $109 MSRP).
  • ❌25% higher power demand at 100W vs 80W.

Radeon HD 4770

2009

Why buy it

  • ✅Costs $1,391 less on MSRP ($109 MSRP vs $1,500 MSRP).
  • ✅Delivers 1271.6% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 8.3 vs 0.6 G3D/$ ($109 MSRP vs $1,500 MSRP).
  • ✅Draws 80W instead of 100W, a 20W reduction.

Trade-offs

  • ❌2009 hardware with 512 MB of VRAM is already well past its comfortable zone for modern gaming, so it is hard to recommend now.
