About G3D Mark

G3D Mark is a standard benchmark that measures graphics performance in real-world gaming scenarios. It simplifies comparing cards from different brands, where higher scores directly correlate with better fps and smoother gaming experiences.

Head-to-Head Verdict, Benchmarks, Value & Long-Term Outlook

This comparison brings together gaming FPS, raw graphics performance, VRAM, feature set, power efficiency, pricing context, and long-term value so you can see which GPU actually makes more sense.

GeForce GTX 670

2012

Why buy it

  • Delivers 100+% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 13.4 vs 0 G3D/$ ($399 MSRP vs Unknown MSRP).

Trade-offs

  • Very weak future-proofing: 2012-era hardware with 4 GB of VRAM is already obsolete for modern gaming and is hard to recommend today.
  • 1033.3% higher power demand at 170W vs 15W.

Radeon 760M

2024

Why buy it

  • More future proof: RDNA 3.0 (2022−2026) on 4nm with a newer platform for upcoming games.
  • Draws 15W instead of 170W, a 155W reduction.
  • More future proof: RDNA 3.0 (2022−2026) on 4nm with a newer platform for upcoming games.

Trade-offs

  • Lower G3D Mark per dollar, at 0 vs 13.4 G3D/$ (Unknown MSRP vs $399 MSRP).

Quick Answers

So, is Radeon 760M better than GeForce GTX 670?
Yes. Radeon 760M is clearly the better overall GPU here. You are also looking at 5,449 vs 5,361 in G3D Mark. On top of that, Radeon 760M is a 2024 card with FSR upscaling, while GeForce GTX 670 is a 2012 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?
Radeon 760M is the more future-proof choice for 2026 and beyond. You are getting a newer 2024 generation instead of 2012, better upscaling support with FSR Upscaling / FSR 4 (2025) instead of no meaningful modern upscaling stack, and a 4nm process instead of 28nm. That broader feature stack should age better as more games lean on modern upscaling and frame-generation support.
Which one is the smarter buy today, not just the cheaper card?
Radeon 760M is the smarter buy by a wide margin. Radeon 760M is priced in an unclear MSRP range at an unclear MSRP versus $399 MSRP, and you are getting 1.6% higher G3D Mark. GeForce GTX 670 really only makes sense now as a very cheap stopgap or a used-market placeholder.
Is GeForce GTX 670 still worth buying for gaming in 2026?
No, not for a fresh gaming build. GeForce GTX 670 is 2012 hardware with 4 GB of VRAM, 5,361 in G3D Mark, and no meaningful modern upscaling stack. That is simply too far behind to be an easy modern recommendation.
