AMD Radeon 8065S vs AMD Radeon PRO W7600 Comparison

The Verdict

The recorded data presents a clear contrast between two active AMD workstation and mobile graphics solutions. The AMD Radeon 8065S is a mobile integrated graphics processor based on the newer RDNA 3.5 architecture, built on a 4 nm process, and is positioned as part of the Navi Mobile generation. The AMD Radeon PRO W7600 is a dedicated single-slot workstation card using RDNA 3.0, fabricated on a 6 nm node, and belongs to the Radeon Pro Navi series.

Benchmark results only exist for the Radeon PRO W7600, with an average benchmark score of 87108 and a percentile rank of 93 among all GPUs. The Radeon 8065S has no recorded benchmark scores and sits at the 50th percentile. This means the database contains no direct performance measurements for the 8065S, so any performance comparison must rely on architectural specifications rather than empirical test data. The W7600 shows a 4.4% deficit against the NVIDIA RTX A4500 Mobile and a 5% deficit against the desktop RTX A4500, while leading the NVIDIA CMP 40HX by 1.7% and essentially matching the Quadro GP100 with a 0.4% gap. The data supports the W7600 as the verified performer when measured scores matter.

The 8065S, despite its lack of benchmark data, presents a compelling specification sheet for integrated graphics. Its 2560 shading units, 160 texture mapping units, and 40 ray tracing cores exceed the W7600's 2048 shading units, 128 TMUs, and 32 RT cores. The 8065S also has a higher boost clock of 3000 MHz compared to the W7600's 2440 MHz, and a higher pixel rate of 192.0 GPixel/s versus 156.2 GPixel/s. However, the W7600 counters with a much higher FP32 throughput of 19.99 TFLOPS, while the 8065S delivers 15.36 TFLOPS. The W7600 also has dedicated 8 GB GDDR6 memory on a 128-bit bus with 288.0 GB/s bandwidth, whereas the 8065S relies on system shared memory with bandwidth dependent on the host system.

The choice depends on whether the user needs a verified, standalone workstation GPU or a power-efficient integrated solution. The W7600 is the only one with measured performance data and a 93rd percentile ranking. The 8065S offers architectural advantages in core counts and clock speeds but remains unverified in actual benchmarks. Users needing a dedicated card with known performance should select the W7600. Users prioritizing an integrated solution with a 55 W TDP and no power connectors may consider the 8065S, but they must accept the absence of recorded performance evidence.

Where Each One Wins

The Radeon PRO W7600 wins outright in the only category with measured data: benchmark scores. Its Geekbench OpenCL score of 81528 and Vulkan score of 92688 demonstrate verified compute and graphics performance. The average benchmark score of 87108 places it at the 93rd percentile, which indicates strong standing against the broader GPU landscape. Its nearest rivals, including the Quadro GP100 and RTX A4500 series, are within a narrow 5% band, suggesting the W7600 competes closely with established professional workstation cards.

The Radeon 8065S wins on architectural specifications that favor integrated designs. Its 4 nm process node versus the W7600's 6 nm node suggests higher manufacturing efficiency. The 8065S has a 3000 MHz boost clock, which is 560 MHz higher than the W7600's 2440 MHz boost. It also has more shading units, TMUs, and RT cores. The 8065S operates at 55 W TDP with no power connectors, making it suitable for portable devices, while the W7600 requires 130 W and a 6-pin connector. The 8065S uses PCIe 5.0 x16, a newer interface than the W7600's PCIe 4.0 x8.

In terms of memory, the W7600 wins decisively because it has dedicated GDDR6 memory with known bandwidth. The 8065S uses system shared memory, which means its performance depends on the host device's memory subsystem. The W7600's 288.0 GB/s bandwidth is a fixed, measurable figure. The 8065S has no fixed memory bandwidth; the database lists it as system dependent.

Architecture Differences

The two GPUs come from different architectural generations. The Radeon 8065S uses RDNA 3.5, while the Radeon PRO W7600 uses RDNA 3.0. This generational gap explains several specification differences. The 8065S is built on TSMC's 4 nm process, whereas the W7600 uses TSMC's 6 nm process. The 8065S uses a chip called Gorgon Halo with a die size of 308 mm². The W7600 uses Navi 33, codenamed Hotpink Bonefish, with a die size of 204 mm² and 13,300 million transistors, giving it a transistor density of 65.2 million per square millimeter. The 8065S transistor count is listed as unknown.

Core configurations differ substantially. The 8065S has 2560 shading units, 160 TMUs, 64 ROPs, and 40 RT cores. The W7600 has 2048 shading units, 128 TMUs, 64 ROPs, and 32 RT cores. Both have the same ROP count, but the 8065S leads in every other compute unit category. The 8065S achieves a texture rate of 480.0 GTexel/s versus the W7600's 312.3 GTexel/s, and a pixel rate of 192.0 GPixel/s versus 156.2 GPixel/s.

Clock behavior also differs. The 8065S has a base clock of 1295 MHz and a boost of 3000 MHz. The W7600 starts higher at 1720 MHz base but boosts to only 2440 MHz. The 8065S's higher boost clock and wider core configuration do not translate into higher FP32 throughput, however. The W7600 delivers 19.99 TFLOPS FP32, while the 8065S delivers 15.36 TFLOPS. The FP16 picture is more dramatic: the W7600 achieves 39.98 TFLOPS with a 2:1 ratio, while the 8065S matches its FP32 figure at 15.36 TFLOPS with a 1:1 ratio. This indicates the W7600 has specialized fast-path FP16 hardware that the 8065S lacks.

Memory architecture is fundamentally different. The 8065S uses system shared memory with no dedicated VRAM, no fixed bus width, and no fixed bandwidth. The W7600 has 8 GB GDDR6 on a 128-bit bus running at 2250 MHz with 18 Gbps effective speed, yielding 288.0 GB/s bandwidth. The W7600's memory clock is explicitly recorded, while the 8065S memory clock is listed as system shared.

Power and physical design diverge sharply. The 8065S is an integrated graphics processor with a 55 W TDP, no power connectors, and no slot width specification beyond IGP. The W7600 is a single-slot card with a 130 W TDP, one 6-pin power connector, a suggested 300 W power supply, and physical dimensions of 241 mm length and 115 mm height. The W7600 has four DisplayPort 2.1 outputs, while the 8065S's display outputs depend on the portable device.

Both support DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4, so API compatibility is identical. The 8065S uses PCIe 5.0 x16, while the W7600 uses PCIe 4.0 x8. The 8065S belongs to the Navi Mobile (RX 8000M) generation and lists Polaris Mobile as its predecessor. The W7600 belongs to the Radeon Pro Navi (Navi III Series) generation with Radeon Pro Vega as its predecessor.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

Direct head-to-head benchmark comparisons between the 8065S and W7600 cannot be made because the 8065S has no recorded benchmarks. The database shows zero wins for each GPU in head-to-head testing. The W7600's measured performance, however, can be contextualized against its nearest rivals. Its average benchmark score of 87108 is 0.4% below the NVIDIA Quadro GP100's 87445, which is a negligible difference. Against the NVIDIA CMP 40HX at 85637, the W7600 leads by 1.7%. The W7600 trails the RTX A4500 Mobile by 4.4% and the RTX A4500 by 5%.

The 8065S's FP32 throughput of 15.36 TFLOPS is 4.63 TFLOPS lower than the W7600's 19.99 TFLOPS. This 23% gap in raw FP32 compute strongly favors the W7600 in general compute workloads. The FP16 comparison is even more lopsided: the W7600's 39.98 TFLOPS is 2.6 times the 8065S's 15.36 TFLOPS. The W7600's 2:1 FP16 ratio indicates dedicated hardware acceleration, while the 8065S's 1:1 ratio means it processes FP16 at the same rate as FP32.

The 8065S counters with superior rasterization metrics. Its pixel rate of 192.0 GPixel/s is 35.8 GPixel/s higher than the W7600's 156.2 GPixel/s, a 23% advantage. Its texture rate of 480.0 GTexel/s exceeds the W7600's 312.3 GTexel/s by 167.7 GTexel/s, a 54% advantage. These figures suggest the 8065S has an edge in fill-rate-bound scenarios, despite its lower FP32 compute.

The 8065S's boost clock of 3000 MHz is 560 MHz higher than the W7600's 2440 MHz. Its base clock, however, is 425 MHz lower at 1295 MHz versus 1720 MHz. The 8065S also has a larger die at 308 mm² compared to the W7600's 204 mm², but the W7600's transistor count is known at 13,300 million, while the 8065S's is unknown. The W7600's transistor density of 65.2 million per square millimeter is a recorded figure.

The W7600's 288.0 GB/s memory bandwidth is a fixed advantage over the 8065S's system dependent bandwidth. In workloads sensitive to memory bandwidth, the W7600 provides predictable performance. The 8065S's memory performance cannot be quantified from the database, making its real-world memory behavior uncertain.
