AMD Instinct MI350P vs NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER Comparison

Where Each One Wins

The recorded data presents an unusual comparison: the AMD Instinct MI350P has no benchmark entries in the database, while the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER carries a full suite of ten recorded tests. The Instinct MI350P therefore cannot claim a single measured win, and the win count stands at zero for AMD and zero for NVIDIA in head-to-head comparisons, though the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER is the only participant with any recorded scores at all.

The NVIDIA card's benchmark suite spans several API generations. Its strongest result appears in Passmark G3D with a score of 31,811, which contributes heavily to an average benchmark score of 31,087. Compute-oriented workloads show a Passmark GPU Compute score of 18,372, while OpenCL performance in Geekbench reaches 199,267. The Vulkan score of 53,683 trails the OpenCL result considerably, suggesting the card's compute performance is more consistent under OpenCL than under Vulkan in the recorded data.

The Instinct MI350P, by contrast, shows an average benchmark score of zero and a percentile rank of 50 against all GPUs. That percentile figure is curious: it places the card in the middle of the database distribution despite having no recorded measurements, indicating the percentile field may reflect the absence of data rather than actual performance. The RTX 4070 Ti SUPER sits at the 76th percentile, a position supported by its ten recorded scores.

DirectX results for the NVIDIA card are modest in raw numbers: Passmark DirectX 12 scores 119, DirectX 11 scores 278, and DirectX 10 scores 181. The DirectX 9 score of 360 is the highest of the four legacy API tests. Passmark G2D, which measures 2D graphics operations, reaches 1,225. These figures are not directly comparable to the AMD card, which lists no API support at all: DirectX, OpenGL, and Vulkan are all marked as not applicable for the Instinct MI350P.

The use-case split is therefore sharp. The RTX 4070 Ti SUPER is the only product in this comparison with any measurable graphics or compute performance. The Instinct MI350P, with its lack of display outputs and absence of API support, is clearly not a client graphics product. Its role would be inferred from its memory configuration and architecture rather than from benchmark scores, which are entirely absent from the database.

Architecture Differences

The two chips diverge at nearly every architectural level. The AMD Instinct MI350P uses the CDNA 4.0 architecture and is built on a 3 nm process at TSMC, while the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER uses Ada Lovelace on a 5 nm process, also at TSMC. The transistor counts differ substantially: 73,000 million for the AMD chip versus 45,900 million for the NVIDIA chip.

Die size tells a complementary story. The MI350P measures 1190 mm², while the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER measures 379 mm². Transistor density flips the comparison: the NVIDIA chip packs 121.1 million transistors per square millimeter, whereas the AMD chip reaches only 61.3 million per square millimeter. The AMD design uses a much larger die with lower density, consistent with a compute-oriented accelerator that prioritizes raw scale over compactness.

Memory architecture could hardly be more different. The MI350P carries 144 GB of HBM3e across an 8192-bit bus, yielding 8.19 TB/s of bandwidth. The RTX 4070 Ti SUPER has 16 GB of GDDR6X on a 256-bit bus, with 672.3 GB/s of bandwidth. That is a twelve-fold difference in memory capacity and a roughly twelve-fold difference in bandwidth, both favoring the AMD accelerator.

Shading unit counts are closer than the memory gap might suggest. The MI350P has 8,192 shading units and 512 texture mapping units, while the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER has 8,448 shading units and 264 TMUs. The NVIDIA card also has 96 ROPs, whereas the AMD card lists zero ROPs and a pixel rate of 0 MPixel/s. The AMD card's texture rate is 1,126.4 GTexel/s, well ahead of the NVIDIA card's 689.0 GTexel/s.

Floating-point throughput favors NVIDIA in the recorded figures. The RTX 4070 Ti SUPER delivers 44.10 TFLOPS in FP32 and the same in FP16, while the MI350P delivers 36.04 TFLOPS in both. The AMD card has no Ray Tracing cores or Tensor cores listed, while the NVIDIA card has 66 RT cores and 264 Tensor cores.

Clock behavior also differs. The MI350P runs at a 1000 MHz base and 2200 MHz boost, while the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER runs at 2340 MHz base and 2610 MHz boost. The AMD card's memory clock is 2000 MHz with 8 Gbps effective, while the NVIDIA card's memory clock is 1313 MHz with 21 Gbps effective. The NVIDIA card's higher effective memory speed compensates for its narrower bus.

PCIe generation differs as well: the MI350P uses PCIe 5.0 x16, while the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER uses PCIe 4.0 x16. The AMD card has no display outputs, while the NVIDIA card has 1x HDMI 2.1 and 3x DisplayPort 1.4a. API support confirms the split: the NVIDIA card supports DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4, while the AMD card supports none of these.

Specification Differences

The two cards differ in nearly every specification category tracked by the database. The MI350P uses the MI350 128CU chip with CDNA 4.0 architecture, while the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER uses the AD103 chip with Ada Lovelace. Process nodes are 3 nm versus 5 nm, both from TSMC. Transistor counts are 73,000 million versus 45,900 million. Die sizes are 1190 mm² versus 379 mm².

Clock speeds differ across the board. The MI350P has a 1000 MHz base clock and 2200 MHz boost, while the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER has a 2340 MHz base clock and 2610 MHz boost. Memory clocks are 2000 MHz with 8 Gbps effective for AMD, versus 1313 MHz with 21 Gbps effective for NVIDIA.

Memory capacity and type are completely different: 144 GB HBM3e versus 16 GB GDDR6X. Bus widths are 8192 bits versus 256 bits. Bandwidth is 8.19 TB/s versus 672.3 GB/s.

Compute unit counts differ in several categories. The MI350P has 8,192 shading units and 512 TMUs, with zero ROPs. The RTX 4070 Ti SUPER has 8,448 shading units, 264 TMUs, and 96 ROPs. The AMD card lists no RT cores or Tensor cores; the NVIDIA card has 66 RT cores and 264 Tensor cores.

Pixel and texture rates separate the two. The MI350P has a pixel rate of 0 MPixel/s and a texture rate of 1,126.4 GTexel/s. The RTX 4070 Ti SUPER has a pixel rate of 250.6 GPixel/s and a texture rate of 689.0 GTexel/s.

FP32 and FP16 throughput both favor NVIDIA: 44.10 TFLOPS versus 36.04 TFLOPS. Power draw favors NVIDIA as well, with 285 W versus 600 W. The NVIDIA card uses a triple-slot cooler; the AMD card uses dual-slot. Both use a 1x 16-pin power connector, but the suggested PSU is 1000 W for AMD and 600 W for NVIDIA.

The bus interface differs by one generation: PCIe 5.0 x16 for AMD, PCIe 4.0 x16 for NVIDIA. Display outputs are absent on the AMD card, while the NVIDIA card has 1x HDMI 2.1 and 3x DisplayPort 1.4a. Physical dimensions also differ: the MI350P is 267 mm long, 111 mm high, and 40 mm wide, while the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER is 310 mm long, 140 mm high, and 61 mm wide.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The database contains no head-to-head benchmark entries for this pairing. The MI350P has zero recorded benchmark scores, so direct numerical comparisons are impossible. However, the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER's ten individual scores provide a reference for what the NVIDIA card achieves in isolation.

The strongest NVIDIA results are in compute-oriented tests. Geekbench OpenCL reaches 199,267, and Passmark GPU Compute reaches 18,372. The Passmark G3D score of 31,811 anchors the average benchmark score of 31,087. The nearest rivals in the database confirm this performance level: the NVIDIA Quadro M5000 sits at 31,206 with a delta of -0.4 percent, the GRID M60-1Q at 31,220 with -0.4 percent, the RTX PRO 4500 Blackwell at 31,532 with -1.4 percent, and the TITAN RTX at 31,676 with -1.9 percent. These deltas indicate the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER sits within two percent of all four rivals, a tightly clustered performance band.

The legacy DirectX scores show a different pattern. DirectX 9 leads at 360, followed by DirectX 11 at 278, DirectX 10 at 181, and DirectX 12 at 119. The DirectX 12 result is notably lower than the DirectX 9 result, which is unusual for a modern card and may reflect the specific workload characteristics of the Passmark tests rather than raw capability.

The Vulkan score of 53,683 is substantially lower than the OpenCL score of 199,267. This gap suggests the card's compute throughput is highly API-dependent in the recorded data. The G2D score of 1,225 is modest but present, confirming that 2D operations are functional.

For the MI350P, no such figures exist. The database records an average benchmark score of zero, and the percentile rank of 50 appears to be a placeholder rather than a measured position. The absence of scores means the AMD card cannot be placed relative to the NVIDIA card or any other GPU in the database on measured performance.

The Verdict

The data supports a clear split based on intended use. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER is the only card here with recorded performance, and its numbers indicate a capable client GPU with broad API support, display outputs, and a 76th percentile rank. Its 44.10 TFLOPS of FP32 performance, 66 RT cores, and 264 Tensor cores position it for graphics and rendering workloads that require DirectX, OpenGL, or Vulkan support.

The AMD Instinct MI350P takes a different path. Its 144 GB of HBM3e memory and 8.19 TB/s of bandwidth are extraordinary figures, but the card has no display outputs, no API support, and no benchmark scores in the database. Its 600 W TDP, PCIe 5.0 interface, and zero ROPs suggest a compute accelerator designed for data center workloads rather than client graphics. The 1,126.4 GTexel/s texture rate indicates raw throughput capability, but without recorded benchmarks, the database cannot confirm how that capability translates into real-world performance.

The RTX 4070 Ti SUPER is marked as end-of-life, with a successor in the GeForce 50 series already listed. The MI350P has a future release date of May 6, 2026, and no production status recorded. The NVIDIA card's launch MSRP is 799 USD, stated once here for reference.

The choice between these two cards depends entirely on workload category. For any task requiring graphics output, API support, or ray tracing, the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER is the only option with recorded capability. For workloads that demand massive memory capacity and bandwidth in a compute-oriented package, the MI350P's specifications point in that direction, but the absence of benchmark data means its actual performance remains unverified in this database. The percentile ranks reinforce this: 76th for NVIDIA with measured scores, 50th for AMD with none.
