Quadro FX 370M vs RADEON X800 XT: 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 FX 370M

2008

Why buy it

  • Draws 189W instead of 300W, a 111W reduction.

Trade-offs

  • 2008 hardware with 256 MB 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 0.2 G3D/$ (Unknown MSRP vs $499 MSRP).

RADEON X800 XT

2020

Why buy it

  • Delivers 100+% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 0.2 vs 0 G3D/$ ($499 MSRP vs Unknown MSRP).
  • Quadro FX 370M is already obsolete for modern gaming, so RADEON X800 XT is the less risky modern option long term.
  • More future proof: RDNA 2.0 (2020−2025) on 7nm with a newer platform for upcoming games.

Trade-offs

  • Older hardware, 256 MB of VRAM, and weaker feature support mean it will age faster in newer AAA releases.
  • 58.7% higher power demand at 300W vs 189W.

Quick Answers

Which GPU is faster for gaming right now?
RADEON X800 XT is the faster gaming card right now based on the synthetic data we have. It leads by 5.4% in PassMark G3D (98 vs 93), which is the best performance signal available in this matchup.
Which GPU is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond?
RADEON X800 XT 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, a 7nm process instead of 55nm, 72 vs 0 ray-tracing units, and a newer 2020 generation instead of 2008. That gives it the more rounded hardware package for newer games.
Which GPU is the better buy today?
RADEON X800 XT makes the most sense today based on the pricing and value data we have for this matchup.
