NVS 810 vs Radeon RX 6300 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.

NVS 810 vs Radeon RX 6300: Pros, Cons & Final Verdict

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

NVS 810

2015

Why buy it

  • Competitive enough if your priority is price, power, or specific feature preference.

Trade-offs

  • Lower PassMark G3D performance (1,192 vs 5,319).
  • No equivalent frame-generation stack like FSR Frame Generation + AFMF (2023).
  • 2015 hardware with 4 GB of VRAM is already well past its comfortable zone for modern gaming, so it is hard to recommend now.
  • 1066.7% HIGHER MSRP
    $700 MSRPvs$60 MSRP
  • Lower G3D Mark per dollar, at 1.7 vs 88.7 G3D/$ ($700 MSRP vs $60 MSRP).

Radeon RX 6300

2022

Why buy it

  • +346.2% higher PassMark G3D performance.
  • Costs $640 less on MSRP ($60 MSRP vs $700 MSRP).
  • Delivers 5106% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 88.7 vs 1.7 G3D/$ ($60 MSRP vs $700 MSRP).
  • Access to a newer frame-generation stack with FSR Frame Generation + AFMF (2023).
  • Better long-term bet: RDNA 2.0 (2020−2025) on 6nm gives it a newer hardware base for upcoming games.

Trade-offs

  • Fewer clear downsides in this head-to-head, aside from the usual pricing and availability swings.

Quick Answers

Which GPU is faster for gaming right now?
Radeon RX 6300 is the faster gaming card right now based on the synthetic data we have. It leads by 346.2% in PassMark G3D (5,319 vs 1,192), which is the best performance signal available in this matchup.
Which GPU is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond?
Radeon RX 6300 is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond. The case is simple: the newer feature stack, with FSR 3 (2023) and FSR Frame Generation + AFMF (2023), while NVS 810 is limited to no meaningful modern upscaling stack and no comparable frame-generation support, a 6nm process instead of 28nm, 12 vs 0 ray-tracing units, and a newer 2022 generation instead of 2015. That gives it the more rounded hardware package for newer games.
Which GPU is the better buy today?
Radeon RX 6300 makes the most sense to buy today. It is $640 cheaper on MSRP at $60 vs $700, and it leads G3D-per-dollar by 5106% (88.7 vs 1.7), so the value case lines up with the gaming result.
