Mobility Radeon HD 4670 vs Quadro FX 3700M: 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 4670

2009

Why buy it

  • Delivers 100+% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 6.9 vs 0 G3D/$ ($67 MSRP vs Unknown MSRP).
  • Draws 30W instead of 189W, a 159W reduction.
  • More future proof: TeraScale (2005−2013) on 55nm with a newer platform for upcoming games.

Trade-offs

  • 2009 hardware with 1 GB of VRAM is already well past its comfortable zone for modern gaming, so it is hard to recommend now.
