Performance Comparison

About G3D Mark

🏆 Chipversus Verdict

⚠️ Generational Difference

The RADEON X800 SE is significantly newer (2025 vs 2015). The RADEON X800 SE likely supports modern features like Ray Tracing, Tensor Cores, and DLSS/FSR upscaling, which act as force multipliers for performance. The GeForce 310M lacks this hardware feature set, limiting its longevity in modern titles despite any raw power similarities.

🚀 Performance Leadership

The RADEON X800 SE is the superior choice for raw performance. It leads with a 2.4% higher G3D Mark score. However, the GeForce 310M offers more VRAM, which may be beneficial for texture-heavy scenarios at higher resolutions.
