Mobility Radeon HD 3670 vs Quadro NVS 510M 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 HD 3670 vs Quadro NVS 510M: 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 HD 3670

2010

Why buy it

  • Delivers 100+% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 2.9 vs 0 G3D/$ ($79 MSRP vs Unknown MSRP).
  • Draws 50W instead of 100W, a 50W reduction.

Trade-offs

  • 2010 hardware with 1 GB of VRAM is already well past its comfortable zone for modern gaming, so it is hard to recommend now.

Quadro NVS 510M

2011

Why buy it

  • More future proof: Fermi 2.0 (2010−2014) on 40nm with a newer platform for upcoming games.

Trade-offs

  • 2011 hardware with 1 GB 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 2.9 G3D/$ (Unknown MSRP vs $79 MSRP).
  • 100% higher power demand at 100W vs 50W.

Quick Answers

Which GPU is faster for gaming right now?
Quadro NVS 510M is the faster gaming card right now based on the synthetic data we have. It leads by 2.6% in PassMark G3D (238 vs 232), which is the best performance signal available in this matchup.
Which GPU is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond?
Mobility Radeon HD 3670 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 HD 3670 makes the most sense today based on the pricing and value data we have for this matchup. Quadro NVS 510M still makes more sense if max raw gaming performance matters more than value.
