Quadro K1200 vs Radeon Pro V340 MxGPU: 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 K1200

2015

Why buy it

  • Delivers 100+% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 9.9 vs 0 G3D/$ ($300 MSRP vs Unknown MSRP).
  • 100% more VRAM for high-resolution textures and newer games (4 GB vs 2 GB).
  • Draws 45W instead of 300W, a 255W reduction.

Trade-offs

  • Lower average FPS than Radeon Pro V340 MxGPU across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
  • 2015 hardware with 4 GB of VRAM is already well past its comfortable zone for modern gaming, so it is hard to recommend now.

Radeon Pro V340 MxGPU

2018

Why buy it

  • 99.5% more average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
  • Quadro K1200 is already obsolete for modern gaming, so Radeon Pro V340 MxGPU is the less risky modern option long term.
  • More future proof: GCN 5.0 (2017−2020) on 14nm with a newer platform for upcoming games.

Trade-offs

  • Less VRAM, with 2 GB vs 4 GB for high-resolution textures and newer games.
  • 2018 hardware with 2 GB of VRAM already sits in legacy territory for modern games.
  • Lower G3D Mark per dollar, at 0 vs 9.9 G3D/$ (Unknown MSRP vs $300 MSRP).
  • 566.7% higher power demand at 300W vs 45W.

Quick Answers

Which GPU is faster for gaming right now?
Radeon Pro V340 MxGPU is the faster gaming card right now. In our data, it leads by 99.5% in average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data. PassMark G3D leans toward Quadro K1200 instead at 2,965 vs 2,853, so for this question the real-game FPS result matters more than the synthetic split.
Which GPU is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond?
Radeon Pro V340 MxGPU 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 14nm process instead of 28nm, and a newer 2018 generation instead of 2015. That makes it the less risky pick as game demands keep moving.
Which GPU is the better buy today?
Quadro K1200 makes the most sense today based on the pricing and value data we have for this matchup. If you are mainly targeting 1080p and some 1440p, Quadro K1200 is the easier value choice. If you care more about 1080p and some 1440p headroom, Radeon Pro V340 MxGPU has the stronger long-term case.
