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.

P106-090 vs Radeon RX Vega 11 PRD: Pros, Cons & Final Verdict

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

P106-090

2017

Why buy it

  • ✅Delivers 100+% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 6.3 vs 0 G3D/$ ($389 MSRP vs Unknown MSRP).
  • ✅100+% more VRAM for high-resolution textures and newer games (2 GB vs Unknown).
  • ✅Radeon RX Vega 11 PRD is already obsolete for modern gaming, so P106-090 is the less risky modern option long term.

Trade-offs

  • ❌2017 hardware with 2 GB of VRAM is already well past its comfortable zone for modern gaming, so it is hard to recommend now.
  • ❌400% higher power demand at 75W vs 15W.

Radeon RX Vega 11 PRD

2018

Why buy it
