Quadro 3000M vs Radeon HD 6770M: Pros, Cons & Final Verdict

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

Quadro 3000M

2011

Why buy it

  • 78.9% more average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
  • 100% more VRAM for high-resolution textures and newer games (2 GB vs 1 GB).
  • More future proof: Fermi (2010−2014) on 40nm with a newer platform for upcoming games.

Trade-offs

  • 2011 hardware with 2 GB of VRAM is already well past its comfortable zone for modern gaming, so it is hard to recommend now.
  • 114.3% higher power demand at 75W vs 35W.

Radeon HD 6770M

2011

Why buy it

  • Draws 35W instead of 75W, a 40W reduction.

Trade-offs

  • Lower average FPS than Quadro 3000M across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
  • Less VRAM, with 1 GB vs 2 GB for high-resolution textures and newer games.
  • 2011 hardware with 1 GB of VRAM is already well past its comfortable zone for modern gaming, so it is hard to recommend now.

Quick Answers

Which GPU is faster for gaming right now?
Quadro 3000M is the faster gaming card right now. In our data, it leads by 78.9% in average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data and by 3.8% in PassMark G3D (1,001 vs 964), so the answer here is pretty clean.
