Radeon E6760

2011

Why buy it

✅Draws 45W instead of 95W, a 50W reduction.
✅More future proof: TeraScale 2 (2009−2015) on 40nm with a newer platform for upcoming games.

Trade-offs

❌Less VRAM, with 512 MB vs 1 GB for high-resolution textures and newer games.
❌Very weak future-proofing: 2011-era hardware with 512 MB of VRAM is already obsolete for modern gaming and is hard to recommend today.
❌
84.6% HIGHER MSRP
$240 MSRPvs$130 MSRP
❌Lower G3D Mark per dollar, at 3.5 vs 6.7 G3D/$ ($240 MSRP vs $130 MSRP).

Radeon HD 4830

2008

Why buy it

✅Costs $110 less on MSRP ($130 MSRP vs $240 MSRP).
✅Delivers 88.1% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 6.7 vs 3.5 G3D/$ ($130 MSRP vs $240 MSRP).
✅100% more VRAM for high-resolution textures and newer games (1 GB vs 512 MB).

Trade-offs

❌Very weak future-proofing: 2008-era hardware with 1 GB of VRAM is already obsolete for modern gaming and is hard to recommend today.
❌111.1% higher power demand at 95W vs 45W.

Quick Answers

So, is Radeon HD 4830 better than Radeon E6760?

Yes, but this is not really about a huge raw performance gap. The broader synthetic picture is also very close at 850 vs 866 in G3D Mark. The bigger reason to prefer Radeon HD 4830 is the overall package: you are getting FSR upscaling.

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

Radeon E6760 is the more future-proof choice for 2026 and beyond. You are getting a newer 2011 generation instead of 2008 and a 40nm process instead of 55nm. That makes it the safer long-run choice for modern games.

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

Radeon HD 4830 can still make sense if you find it at the right price, especially around $130 MSRP. Radeon HD 4830 is still the smarter buy for most people, though, because the raw performance is close while the overall package is cleaner. Radeon HD 4830 is about $110 cheaper on MSRP at $130 MSRP versus $240 MSRP, and you are getting 1.9% higher G3D Mark. Radeon E6760 is the newer 2011 card, so it still has a real case if you care more about newer architecture, lower power draw (45W vs 95W), and future-proofing than about squeezing out the strongest gaming value today.

When does Radeon E6760 make more sense than Radeon HD 4830?

Yes. Radeon E6760 is still an excellent gaming GPU in 2026: it is still comfortable for 1080p and decent for 1440p, though 4K is more situational. It makes more sense if your priority is newer architecture, lower power draw (45W vs 95W), future-proofing, and staying closer to $240 MSRP more than squeezing out the extra headroom of Radeon HD 4830. The trade-off is that Radeon HD 4830 currently gives you 1.9% higher G3D Mark. It also leads G3D-per-dollar by 88.1%.
