CMP 30HX

2021

Why buy it

✅Less risky long-term buy than GeForce GTX 760: it remains the more sensible modern option while GeForce GTX 760 is already obsolete for modern gaming.
✅Draws 125W instead of 170W, a 45W reduction.
✅Measures 229mm instead of 241mm, a 12mm shorter card that is more SFF-friendly.

Trade-offs

❌Less VRAM, with 2 GB vs 4 GB for high-resolution textures and newer games.
❌Limited future-proofing: older hardware, 2 GB of VRAM, and weaker feature support mean it will age faster in upcoming AAA games.
❌
220.9% HIGHER MSRP
$799 MSRPvs$249 MSRP
❌Lower G3D Mark per dollar, at 6.1 vs 19.3 G3D/$ ($799 MSRP vs $249 MSRP).

GeForce GTX 760

2013

Why buy it

✅Costs $550 less on MSRP ($249 MSRP vs $799 MSRP).
✅Delivers 215.7% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 19.3 vs 6.1 G3D/$ ($249 MSRP vs $799 MSRP).
✅100% more VRAM for high-resolution textures and newer games (4 GB vs 2 GB).

Trade-offs

❌Very weak future-proofing: 2013-era hardware with 4 GB of VRAM is already obsolete for modern gaming and is hard to recommend today.
❌36% higher power demand at 170W vs 125W.

Quick Answers

So, is CMP 30HX better than GeForce GTX 760?

Yes. CMP 30HX is clearly the better overall GPU here. You are also looking at 4,892 vs 4,813 in G3D Mark. On top of that, CMP 30HX is a 2021 card with no meaningful modern upscaling stack, while GeForce GTX 760 is a 2013 model from an older generation with no meaningful modern upscaling stack. So this is not really a tight same-tier comparison. It is more a modern card against an older, weaker alternative.

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 2013 and a 12nm process instead of 28nm. 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 is the smarter buy by a wide margin. CMP 30HX is about 220.9% more expensive on MSRP at $799 MSRP versus $249 MSRP, and you are getting 1.6% higher G3D Mark. GeForce GTX 760 really only makes sense now as a very cheap stopgap or a used-market placeholder.

Is GeForce GTX 760 still worth buying for gaming in 2026?

No, not for a fresh gaming build. GeForce GTX 760 is 2013 hardware with 4 GB of VRAM, 4,813 in G3D Mark, and no meaningful modern upscaling stack. That is simply too far behind to be an easy modern recommendation.
