Analysis: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770M vs NVIDIA T600

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The data shows one clear head-to-head result between these two GPUs, and it is a decisive win for the NVIDIA T600. In the Geekbench OpenCL test, the T600 scored 27,875 points against the GeForce GTX 770M's 8,552 points. That is a 225.9% difference, meaning the T600 delivered more than three times the compute throughput of the older mobile part in this workload.

The GTX 770M has no recorded win in any shared benchmark. The head-to-head section of the database lists only one common test, and the T600 owns it outright. While the GTX 770M does appear in the database with a Geekbench Metal score of 3,448, the T600 has no Metal result, so no direct comparison can be made there. The T600 also holds a substantial lead in the aggregate benchmark average: 7,035 points versus 6,000 points for the GTX 770M, a gap of roughly 17% when looking at all recorded workloads.

In the broader ranking, the T600 sits at the 39th percentile of all GPUs, while the GTX 770M sits at the 35th percentile. The gap is modest in percentile terms, but the raw OpenCL delta shows how far apart the two architectures are when pushed hard. The T600's nearest rivals in the database include the GeForce GTX 680M (average score 7,023, just 0.2% behind), the Radeon R5 M240 (6,975, 0.9% behind), and the GeForce GTX 675M (6,946, 1.3% behind). The GTX 970 sits slightly ahead at 7,157, a 1.7% margin over the T600. For the GTX 770M, the nearest rivals are the Radeon RX 6400 at 6,001 (0% delta), the RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server at 5,996 (0.1% ahead), the FirePro W4100 at 5,987 (0.2% ahead), and the Quadro K4000M at 5,986 (0.2% ahead). The contrast in rival pools tells the story: the T600 competes in a slightly higher performance band, while the GTX 770M sits at the edge of that band looking up.

A: The T600 has 160.0 GB/s of bandwidth from 4 GB of GDDR6 on a 128-bit bus. The GTX 770M has 96.19 GB/s from 3 GB of GDDR5 on a 192-bit bus. The T600's bandwidth is about 66% higher.

Architecture Differences

The two GPUs represent entirely different design eras from NVIDIA. The T600 is built on the Turing architecture using the TU117 chip, fabricated on a 12 nm process at TSMC. The GTX 770M uses the Kepler architecture with the GK106 chip, also from TSMC but on a 28 nm process. The transistor counts reflect the generational jump: the T600 packs 4,700 million transistors into a 200 mm² die, giving a transistor density of 23.5 million per square millimeter. The GTX 770M has 2,540 million transistors on a larger 221 mm² die, resulting in a density of only 11.5 million per square millimeter. That means the T600 crams nearly twice as many transistors into a smaller area, a direct benefit of the newer process node.

The compute layouts are also fundamentally different. The T600 has 640 shading units, 40 texture mapping units, and 32 ROPs. The GTX 770M has more shading units at 960, more TMUs at 80, but fewer ROPs at 24. Having more shaders and TMUs does not translate into a win for the older card though: the T600's higher clocks and newer architecture more than compensate. The T600 boosts to 1,335 MHz from a base of 735 MHz, while the GTX 770M boosts to only 797 MHz from a base of 706 MHz. The T600's boost clock is 67% higher than the GTX 770M's, and that clock advantage shows up directly in the throughput numbers. Pixel rate tells the story clearly: the T600 achieves 42.72 GPixel/s versus 15.94 GPixel/s for the GTX 770M, a 168% advantage. Texture rate is closer: 53.40 GTexel/s for the T600 versus 63.76 GTexel/s for the GTX 770M, the one raw throughput metric where the older card leads.

The T600 also supports FP16 compute at 3.418 TFLOPS with a 2:1 ratio relative to FP32, while the GTX 770M has no recorded FP16 capability. FP32 performance favors the T600 as well: 1.709 TFLOPS versus 1.530 TFLOPS. The T600 runs at a 40 W TDP, the GTX 770M at 75 W. Neither card has ray tracing cores or tensor cores. The T600 supports DirectX 12 (12_1), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4. The GTX 770M supports DirectX 12 (11_0), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.2.175. The DirectX feature level difference matters: the T600 reaches the 12_1 feature level, while the GTX 770M is capped at 11_0.

Specification Differences

The T600 uses GDDR6 memory with a capacity of 4 GB and a 128-bit bus, delivering 160.0 GB/s. The GTX 770M uses GDDR5 with 3 GB on a 192-bit bus, delivering 96.19 GB/s. The T600's memory clock is 1,250 MHz with 10 Gbps effective data rate; the GTX 770M runs at 1,002 MHz with 4 Gbps effective. The T600's smaller bus is more than offset by the much faster GDDR6 standard.

The TDP difference is substantial: the T600 consumes 40 W, the GTX 770M consumes 75 W. The T600 is a single-slot card with no power connectors and a suggested power supply of 200 W. The GTX 770M is an MXM module with no power connectors and no suggested PSU rating listed. The bus interface differs as well: the T600 uses PCIe 3.0 x16, while the GTX 770M uses MXM-B (3.0). Display outputs also diverge sharply: the T600 offers four mini-DisplayPort 1.4a outputs, while the GTX 770M's outputs are listed as portable-device dependent, meaning they vary by laptop implementation.

The release dates are eight years apart: the T600 launched in April 2021, the GTX 770M in May 2013. Both are end-of-life products. The T600's predecessor is Quadro Volta and its successor is Workstation Ampere. The GTX 770M's predecessor is GeForce 600M and its successor is GeForce 800M. The T600 is part of the Quadro Turing (Tx000) generation, while the GTX 770M belongs to the GeForce 700M generation. Neither has a recorded launch MSRP in the database.

Where Each One Wins

The NVIDIA T600 wins in every category that the recorded data supports. It is faster in OpenCL compute by 225.9%. It has a higher average benchmark score by 17%. It delivers more than double the pixel throughput, higher FP32 performance, and exclusive FP16 support. It consumes nearly half the power of the GTX 770M. It has more memory capacity, faster memory technology, and higher memory bandwidth. It also offers a modern display output configuration with four mini-DisplayPort 1.4a connectors, making it suitable for multi-display workstation setups. The T600's higher transistor density and smaller die show the efficiency of the 12 nm Turing process.

The GTX 770M has exactly one advantage in raw specifications: texture rate. At 63.76 GTexel/s, it beats the T600's 53.40 GTexel/s by about 19%. It also has more shading units (960 versus 640) and more TMUs (80 versus 40), though these advantages do not translate into any recorded benchmark win. The GTX 770M's 192-bit memory bus is wider than the T600's 128-bit bus, but the GDDR5 memory clock of 1,002 MHz cannot compete with the T600's GDDR6 at 1,250 MHz, and the bandwidth figures confirm this: 96.19 GB/s versus 160.0 GB/s.

There is no benchmark category in the shared dataset where the GTX 770M comes out ahead. Its only unique result is the Geekbench Metal score of 3,448, a test the T600 was never run on, so no comparison is possible there. For users running Metal-based workloads on a portable system, the GTX 770M at least has a recorded data point, but the T600's absence from that test means the database cannot confirm which would win.

The Verdict

The verdict from the recorded data is unambiguous: the NVIDIA T600 is the superior GPU in nearly every measurable way. It wins the only shared benchmark by a massive 225.9% margin in OpenCL. It holds a 17% lead in average benchmark score. It ranks four percentile points higher in the all-GPU distribution. It offers more memory, faster memory, higher pixel rate, higher FP32 throughput, and exclusive FP16 capability, all while drawing 40 W instead of 75 W. For anyone choosing between these two for compute-oriented tasks, the T600 is the clear pick.

The GTX 770M's case rests entirely on its texture rate advantage and its larger count of shading units and TMUs. Those specs are real, but they do not produce a single recorded win. The card is also limited by its 2013-era Kepler architecture, its lower feature level in DirectX, and its dependence on portable-device display outputs. Its 96.19 GB/s bandwidth is a serious bottleneck compared to the T600's 160.0 GB/s.

Buyers should choose the T600 if they need a low-power, single-slot workstation card with modern display outputs, strong OpenCL compute, and the ability to drive up to four displays through mini-DisplayPort 1.4a. The data shows it is also the better choice for general compute workloads, FP32 tasks, and any application that can leverage FP16. The GTX 770M would only make sense in a scenario where a laptop requires an MXM module and the texture-heavy workloads matter more than everything else, but the benchmark record does not show any such scenario delivering a win. The T600 is the better GPU by the numbers, and the numbers are not close.
