Analysis: AMD Instinct MI325X vs NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti SUPER
AMD Instinct MI325X and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti SUPER occupy opposite ends of the accelerator spectrum. The MI325X is a 1000 W OAM module built for server racks, while the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER is a 350 W dual-slot consumer card with display outputs and a launch MSRP of 749 USD. The recorded data shows no shared benchmarks between the two, so the comparison rests on their individual specifications, one recorded 3DMark result, and relative positions in the overall GPU database.
Head-to-Head Benchmarks
Direct head-to-head benchmark results are absent from the database. The only recorded performance metric belongs to the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER, which scores 6269.5 in 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 and holds an average benchmark score of 6270. Its nearest rivals in the database include the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER AD102 with an identical average score of 6270 and a delta of 0%, the NVIDIA Quadro K620 at 6282 (0.2% higher), the AMD FirePro W600 at 6223 (0.8% lower), and the AMD Radeon R7 M350 at 6327 (0.9% lower). These deltas are all within a single percentage point, indicating that the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER sits in a very tight performance cluster around the 6200 to 6300 score range. The MI325X has no benchmark entries and an average benchmark score of 0, and its percentile versus all GPUs is 50, compared to the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER’s percentile of 36. The MI325X therefore occupies a higher relative position in the database despite lacking a measured score, which reflects its classification as a different class of hardware rather than a direct comparison.
The compute throughput figures provide the clearest numerical contrast. The MI325X delivers 81.72 TFLOPS for both FP32 and FP16 (at a 1:1 ratio), while the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER delivers 43.94 TFLOPS for both FP32 and FP16 (also at 1:1). The MI325X is roughly 86% higher in raw floating-point throughput, a difference of about 37.78 TFLOPS. Texture rate follows a similar pattern: the MI325X reaches 2,553.6 GTexel/s versus 686.6 GTexel/s for the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER, a gap of roughly 3.7 times. Pixel rate, however, reverses the trend entirely: the MI325X is rated at 0 MPixel/s, while the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER produces 235.4 GPixel/s. The MI325X has no raster output units (ROPs), whereas the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER has 96 ROPs. This explains why the MI325X cannot generate pixel output, making it unsuitable for traditional graphics rendering.
Memory bandwidth is another decisive split. The MI325X uses 256 GB of HBM3e on an 8192-bit bus, yielding 6.14 TB/s. The RTX 5070 Ti SUPER uses 16 GB of GDDR7 on a 256-bit bus, yielding 896.0 GB/s. The MI325X’s bandwidth is about 6.85 times higher. The MI325X also has far more shading units (19,456 vs. 8,960), texture mapping units (1,216 vs. 280), and transistors (153,000 million vs. 45,600 million). The die size differs substantially: 1017 mm² for the MI325X versus 378 mm² for the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER. Transistor density favors the MI325X at 150.4 million transistors per mm² versus 120.6 million for the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER.
Clock speeds tell a different story. The RTX 5070 Ti SUPER has a base clock of 2295 MHz and a boost clock of 2452 MHz, far above the MI325X’s 1000 MHz base and 2100 MHz boost. Memory clocks also favor the NVIDIA card: 1750 MHz with 28 Gbps effective versus 1500 MHz with 6 Gbps effective for the MI325X. The MI325X compensates with a much wider bus and more memory, which explains its massive bandwidth advantage despite the lower clock.
The Verdict
The data indicates two entirely different use cases. The MI325X is a compute accelerator with no display outputs, no graphics APIs (DirectX, OpenGL, and Vulkan are all listed as N/A), and no ROPs. It is built for data-center workloads where FP32 and FP16 throughput, memory capacity, and bandwidth dominate. The RTX 5070 Ti SUPER is a graphics card with full API support, including DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, Vulkan 1.4, and 70 ray-tracing cores plus 280 tensor cores. It has display outputs (1x HDMI 2.1b and 3x DisplayPort 2.1b) and a pixel rate of 235.4 GPixel/s, making it a functional rendering solution.
From a pure performance standpoint, the MI325X leads in every compute-oriented metric: FP32, FP16, texture rate, shading units, memory size, memory bandwidth, and bus width. The RTX 5070 Ti SUPER leads in pixel rate, clock speeds, and graphics features. The MI325X’s 50th percentile versus all GPUs is higher than the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER’s 36th percentile, but this ranking reflects the database’s classification of compute accelerators versus consumer graphics cards, not a head-to-head benchmark outcome. The RTX 5070 Ti SUPER’s measured 3DMark score of 6269.5 places it within 1% of four nearby rivals, all of which score between 6223 and 6327. The MI325X has no comparable score, so no direct verdict on gaming or graphics performance can be made.
For users who need rendering, ray tracing, or general-purpose desktop graphics, the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER is the only option with the required hardware and API support. For users who need massive memory capacity and bandwidth for compute workloads, the MI325X is the clear choice. The MI325X also requires a 1400 W suggested power supply and uses an OAM module form factor, whereas the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER uses a dual-slot design with a single 16-pin power connector and has physical dimensions of 304 mm in length, 137 mm in height, and 48 mm in width. Power draw differs by 650 W: 1000 W for the MI325X versus 350 W for the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER.
Architecture Differences
The MI325X uses the Aqua Vanjaram chip based on CDNA 3.0 architecture, fabricated on a 5 nm process at TSMC. The RTX 5070 Ti SUPER uses the GB203 chip based on Blackwell 2.0 architecture, also on a 5 nm process at TSMC. Both share the same process node and foundry, but the chips differ drastically in scale. The MI325X has 153,000 million transistors on a 1017 mm² die, while the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER has 45,600 million transistors on a 378 mm² die. The MI325X packs more transistors per square millimeter (150.4 million) than the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER (120.6 million).
The MI325X belongs to the Instinct (MIx) generation and its predecessor is listed as Radeon Instinct. The RTX 5070 Ti SUPER belongs to the GeForce 50-series and its generation is GeForce 50. The MI325X has no ray-tracing cores or tensor cores listed, while the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER has 70 ray-tracing cores and 280 tensor cores. The MI325X has no ROPs, while the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER has 96. The MI325X’s shading unit count of 19,456 is more than double the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER’s 8,960. Texture mapping units follow a similar ratio: 1,216 versus 280.
Memory architecture diverges completely. The MI325X uses HBM3e with 256 GB capacity and an 8192-bit bus, while the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER uses GDDR7 with 16 GB and a 256-bit bus. The MI325X’s memory bandwidth of 6.14 TB/s is about 6.85 times the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER’s 896.0 GB/s. The MI325X’s memory clock is 1500 MHz with 6 Gbps effective, while the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER’s memory clock is 1750 MHz with 28 Gbps effective. The RTX 5070 Ti SUPER’s higher effective memory speed compensates partially for the narrower bus, but the MI325X’s sheer bus width dominates.
Both cards use PCIe 5.0 x16 for the bus interface. The MI325X has no power connectors because it is an OAM module, while the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER uses a single 16-pin connector. The MI325X has no display outputs, while the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER offers 1x HDMI 2.1b and 3x DisplayPort 2.1b. The MI325X has no DirectX, OpenGL, or Vulkan support, while the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER supports DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4.
