GeForce GTX 770

2013

Why buy it

✅Delivers 100+% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 14.9 vs 0 G3D/$ ($399 MSRP vs Unknown MSRP).

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.
❌170.6% higher power demand at 230W vs 85W.

Radeon Pro 5300M

2019

Why buy it

✅Less risky long-term buy than GeForce GTX 770: it remains the more sensible modern option while GeForce GTX 770 is already obsolete for modern gaming.
✅Draws 85W instead of 230W, a 145W reduction.
✅More future proof: RDNA 1.0 (2019−2020) on 7nm with a newer platform for upcoming games.

Trade-offs

❌Limited future-proofing: older hardware, 4 GB of VRAM, and weaker feature support mean it will age faster in upcoming AAA games.
❌Lower G3D Mark per dollar, at 0 vs 14.9 G3D/$ (Unknown MSRP vs $399 MSRP).

Quick Answers

So, is GeForce GTX 770 better than Radeon Pro 5300M?

Yes. GeForce GTX 770 is clearly the better overall GPU here. You are also looking at 5,961 vs 5,853 in G3D Mark. On top of that, GeForce GTX 770 is a 2013 card with no meaningful modern upscaling stack, while Radeon Pro 5300M is a 2019 model from an older generation with FSR upscaling. 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 Pro 5300M is the more future-proof choice for 2026 and beyond. You are getting a newer 2019 generation instead of 2013, better upscaling support with FSR Upscaling / FSR 4 (2025) instead of no meaningful modern upscaling stack, and a 7nm 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?

GeForce GTX 770 can still make sense if you find it at the right price, especially around $399 MSRP. GeForce GTX 770 is still the smarter buy for most people, though, because the raw performance is close while the overall package is cleaner. GeForce GTX 770 is priced in an unclear MSRP range at $399 MSRP versus an unclear MSRP, and you are getting 1.8% higher G3D Mark. Radeon Pro 5300M is the newer 2019 card, so it still has a real case if you care more about newer architecture, lower power draw (85W vs 230W), and future-proofing than about squeezing out the strongest gaming value today.

When does Radeon Pro 5300M make more sense than GeForce GTX 770?

Yes. Radeon Pro 5300M 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 (85W vs 230W), future-proofing, and staying closer to an unclear MSRP more than squeezing out the extra headroom of GeForce GTX 770. The trade-off is that GeForce GTX 770 currently gives you 1.8% higher G3D Mark. It also leads G3D-per-dollar by 100+%.
