MOBILITY RADEON 9800 vs Quadro NVS 110M 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.

MOBILITY RADEON 9800 vs Quadro NVS 110M: Pros, Cons & Final Verdict

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

MOBILITY RADEON 9800

2010

Why buy it

  • Delivers 100+% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 0.2 vs 0 G3D/$ ($229 MSRP vs Unknown MSRP).

Trade-offs

  • Less VRAM, with 256 MB vs 512 MB for high-resolution textures and newer games.
  • 2010 hardware with 256 MB of VRAM is already well past its comfortable zone for modern gaming, so it is hard to recommend now.

Quadro NVS 110M

2013

Why buy it

  • 100% more VRAM for high-resolution textures and newer games (512 MB vs 256 MB).
  • More future proof: Kepler (2012−2018) on 28nm with a newer platform for upcoming games.

Trade-offs

  • 2013 hardware with 512 MB of VRAM is already well past its comfortable zone for modern gaming, so it is hard to recommend now.
  • Lower G3D Mark per dollar, at 0 vs 0.2 G3D/$ (Unknown MSRP vs $229 MSRP).

Quick Answers

Which GPU is faster for gaming right now?
Quadro NVS 110M is the faster gaming card right now based on the synthetic data we have. It leads by 4.3% in PassMark G3D (48 vs 46), which is the best performance signal available in this matchup.
Which GPU is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond?
MOBILITY RADEON 9800 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. That still leaves it as the safer long-term option on hardware alone.
Which GPU is the better buy today?
MOBILITY RADEON 9800 makes the most sense today based on the pricing and value data we have for this matchup. Quadro NVS 110M still makes more sense if max raw gaming performance matters more than value.
