Pros & cons summary

Performance score	1.23	7.46
Recency	1 April 2013	13 April 2021
Chip lithography	28 nm	7 nm
Power consumption (TDP)	33 Watt	45 Watt

GeForce 710A has 36.4% lower power consumption.

Vega 7, on the other hand, has a 506.5% higher aggregate performance score, an age advantage of 8 years, and a 300% more advanced lithography process.

The Radeon Vega 7 is our recommended choice as it beats the GeForce 710A in performance tests.

Be aware that GeForce 710A is a notebook card while Radeon Vega 7 is a desktop one.
