Radeon PRO WX 3100: FPS benchmarks and laptop guide

The AMD Radeon PRO WX 3100 is the entry rung of AMD's 2017 Polaris-based professional lineup — a certified-viewport card for mobile workstations, built on the same Lexa silicon as its desktop sibling. This guide covers its 27 benchmarked games at 1080p (8 with medium-preset data) and the five catalog listings matched to it.

Where the Radeon PRO WX 3100 sits in 2026

A catalog score of 18.8 ranks it 211th of 341 — the lower middle of the field. The neighbors: the Quadro M2000M (19.9), Quadro T2000 Laptop (19.3) and Radeon Vega 11 Compute Engine (19.3) above; the Apple A12Z (18.8), Radeon Vega 10 (18.6) and Radeon 840M (18.5) below. Level with an iPad Pro's GPU and a 2025 entry iGPU — a fair illustration of how a 2017 entry professional card lands in 2026.

What the chip brings

GCN 4.0 architecture, Lexa codename, 14nm process: 512 shader cores boosting to 1219MHz, 4GB of GDDR5 on a 128-bit bus with 96GB/s of bandwidth, a 65W envelope and 1.25 teraflops of rated compute. Public benchmarks: PassMark 2621, Time Spy 820, Fire Strike 2671, GeekBench Vulkan 7717 and OpenCL 7346. As a professional part its value was driver certification for viewport applications — a warranty that has expired with the generation.

FPS in games at 1080p

At the high preset the playable block is the esports-and-older tier: Valorant at 70 fps, DOTA 2 50, Fortnite 35, Counter-Strike 2 30, Battlefield 5 and Forza Horizon 4 at 27, Call of Duty WWII at 25 (46 on medium), F1 2017 at 21, Far Cry 5 20 and Civilization 6 18 — with the capped quartet at its 240/140 ceilings. The modern block needs settings cuts: Forza Horizon 5 at 18, Cyberpunk 2077 and The Witcher 3 at 12, Metro Exodus 12, Resident Evil 4 remake 10. Low-to-medium settings at 1080p is the honest operating point for current titles.

Laptops that carry it

Five listings match, and they split into two groups. The genuine carriers are the HP ZBook 14u G5 ($319) and ZBook 15u G5 ($321) — the thin mobile workstations this chip was made for. The other three (a Dell Precision M6800 from 2014, a ZBook 17 G1 from 2013 and a Latitude E6410 from 2010) predate the WX 3100 by years: they are name-match artifacts of fuzzy listing search, not machines that carry this silicon. Judge each listing on its actual spec sheet; the fleet medians (best-GPU 14.6, gaming index 24) skew low precisely because of those older entries.

Bottom line

The WX 3100 was built to put certified graphics into affordable thin workstations, and in 2026 it still does the quiet parts of that job: stable multi-monitor output, light viewport work, esports at 1080p. Inside the ZBook G5 pair at around $320 it's a sensible budget workstation buy. It is not a gaming card and not a modern-content card — treat any listing whose actual GPU differs from this record on its own merits, and treat the WX 3100 itself as a capable office-graphics chip with a modest game table on the side.
