GPU Upgrade Calculator

Select your current graphics card to see which upgrades offer the best performance-per-dollar gain. Results are sorted by performance gain per dollar — the ratio of how much faster the new GPU is versus how much extra you pay.

Data is pulled from Amazon US daily. Performance Index is based on 3DMark TimeSpy scores and FP32 compute throughput. A positive Perf Gain % means the listed GPU is faster than your current card. Values above 20% are generally considered a meaningful upgrade for gaming workloads.

Perf Gain % = (upgrade Perf Index ÷ your GPU's Perf Index − 1) × 100. Perf Index = 0.70 × (3DMark TimeSpy ÷ 360) + 0.30 × (FP32 TFLOPS ÷ 1.65) — a weighted blend of real-world gaming performance and raw compute throughput. Value Score = (Perf Index ÷ Price) × 100.
