CMP 30HX

2021

Why buy it

✅Delivers 100+% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 6.1 vs 0 G3D/$ ($799 MSRP vs Unknown MSRP).
✅Less risky long-term buy than GeForce GTX 460 768MB: it remains the more sensible modern option while GeForce GTX 460 768MB is already legacy-tier future-proofing.
✅More future proof: Turing (2018−2022) on 12nm with a newer platform for upcoming games.

Trade-offs

❌Limited future-proofing: older hardware, 2 GB of VRAM, and weaker feature support mean it will age faster in upcoming AAA games.
❌66.7% higher power demand at 125W vs 75W.

GeForce GTX 460 768MB

Why buy it

✅Draws 75W instead of 125W, a 50W reduction.
✅Measures 210mm instead of 229mm, a 19mm shorter card that is more SFF-friendly.

Trade-offs

❌Poor future-proofing: older-era hardware with 2 GB of VRAM is already a legacy-tier option for modern games.
❌Lower G3D Mark per dollar, at 0 vs 6.1 G3D/$ (Unknown MSRP vs $799 MSRP).

Quick Answers

So, is CMP 30HX better than GeForce GTX 460 768MB?

Yes, but this is not really about a huge raw performance gap. The broader synthetic picture is also very close at 4,892 vs 4,800 in G3D Mark. The bigger reason to prefer CMP 30HX is the overall package: you are getting a newer generation, no meaningful modern upscaling stack.

Which one is more future-proof for 2026 and beyond?

CMP 30HX is the more future-proof choice for 2026 and beyond. You are getting a newer 2021 generation instead of 0 and a 12nm process instead of Unknown node. That makes it the safer long-run choice for modern games.

Which one is the smarter buy today, not just the cheaper card?

CMP 30HX can still make sense if you find it at the right price, especially around $799 MSRP. CMP 30HX is still the smarter buy for most people, though, because the raw performance is close while the overall package is cleaner. CMP 30HX is priced in an unclear MSRP range at $799 MSRP versus an unclear MSRP, and you are getting 1.9% higher G3D Mark. Moving to $799 MSRP gets you newer hardware, and no meaningful modern upscaling stack.

Is GeForce GTX 460 768MB still worth buying for gaming in 2026?

Yes. GeForce GTX 460 768MB is still a strong gaming card in 2026: it is still comfortable for 1080p and decent for 1440p, though 4K is more situational. Price is really the swing factor here. If you find it at or below an unclear MSRP, it remains a very sensible buy. CMP 30HX is still the safer recommendation for most fresh builds because it offers a cleaner overall package with newer hardware and no meaningful modern upscaling stack.
