AMD Radeon 820M vs AMD Radeon PRO V710 Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The recorded data contains no direct head-to-head benchmark results between the AMD Radeon 820M and the AMD Radeon PRO V710. The database lists benchmark scores only for the Radeon PRO V710, with no corresponding entries for the Radeon 820M. This means a direct comparison of measured performance in identical tests is impossible from the available information.

What the data does show is that the Radeon PRO V710 sits at the 88th percentile of all GPUs in the database, while the Radeon 820M sits at the 50th percentile. That percentile gap indicates a substantial performance separation, but it should not be read as a precise margin. The Radeon PRO V710 delivers 116,460 points in Geekbench OpenCL and 853 points in 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12. The Radeon 820M has no recorded benchmark scores, so its percentile ranking likely reflects its position relative to other integrated graphics rather than direct competition with the PRO V710.

The Radeon PRO V710's nearest rivals in the database include the NVIDIA P102-100 (average score 58,528, 0.2% ahead), the AMD Radeon RX 6950 XT (average score 58,392, 0.5% ahead), the Intel Arc A570M (average score 58,239, 0.7% ahead), and the AMD Radeon RX 5600 OEM (average score 58,085, 1% behind). These deltas are tiny, all within a single percentage point. The PRO V710's average benchmark score of 58,657 places it in a tight cluster with these cards, meaning its measured performance is effectively comparable to them despite the different architectures and configurations.

For the Radeon 820M, the absence of benchmark data means the only quantitative signal is its 50th percentile ranking. That places it in the middle of the database distribution, a typical position for an integrated graphics solution. The Radeon PRO V710, by contrast, ranks near the top quartile. The data cannot quantify how much faster the PRO V710 is in any specific workload, but the percentile delta and the PRO V710's raw scores indicate a decisive advantage in compute-heavy tasks.

Architecture Differences

The two GPUs come from different architectural generations and manufacturing processes. The Radeon 820M uses RDNA 3.5 architecture on a 4 nm TSMC node, part of the Navi III IGP (Strix Point Mobile) generation with the chip codename Krackan Point 2. The Radeon PRO V710 uses RDNA 3.0 architecture on a 5 nm TSMC node, from the Radeon Pro Navi (Navi III Series) generation with the chip codename Wheat Nas.

The process node difference is notable: 4 nm versus 5 nm. The Radeon PRO V710's transistor count is listed as 28,100 million, with a die size of 346 mm² and a transistor density of 81.2M per mm². The Radeon 820M's transistor count and die size are listed as unknown, so no direct density comparison is possible. The PRO V710 is a discrete card with a single-slot form factor, while the 820M is an integrated graphics processor (IGP) with no slot width.

Compute resources differ sharply. The Radeon 820M has 128 shading units, 8 texture mapping units (TMUs), 4 render output units (ROPs), and 2 ray tracing cores. The Radeon PRO V710 has 3,456 shading units, 216 TMUs, 96 ROPs, and 54 ray tracing cores. That is a 27x difference in shading units, a 27x difference in TMUs, a 24x difference in ROPs, and a 27x difference in ray tracing cores. These ratios are consistent across the core configurable units.

Clock speeds also differ. The Radeon 820M has a base clock of 400 MHz and a boost clock of 2,800 MHz. The Radeon PRO V710 has a base clock of 1,900 MHz and a boost clock of 2,000 MHz. The 820M's boost clock is 800 MHz higher than the PRO V710's boost clock, but its base clock is 1,500 MHz lower. The PRO V710's memory clock is 2,250 MHz with 18 Gbps effective data rate, while the 820M uses system shared memory with dependent bandwidth.

The Radeon PRO V710 has 28 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 224-bit bus with 504.0 GB/s bandwidth. The Radeon 820M has no dedicated memory; it uses system shared memory with a system dependent bandwidth figure. The bus interface also differs: the 820M uses PCIe 4.0 x8, while the PRO V710 uses PCIe 4.0 x16.

Power and cooling requirements are dramatically different. The Radeon 820M has a TDP of 15 W and requires no power connectors. The Radeon PRO V710 has a TDP of 158 W, requires a single 8-pin power connector, and the database suggests a 450 W PSU. The 820M is an IGP with display outputs dependent on the portable device, while the PRO V710 has no display outputs at all, indicating it is designed for compute or rendering tasks where a separate display adapter handles output.

Both GPUs support DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4. Both use TSMC as the foundry. The Radeon 820M's predecessor is listed as Navi II IGP, and the Radeon PRO V710's predecessor is Radeon Pro Vega.

The Verdict

The data points toward entirely different use cases. The Radeon 820M is an integrated GPU with a 15 W TDP, no power connectors, and system shared memory. It sits at the 50th percentile of all GPUs, which is a mid-pack position consistent with an IGP that handles everyday graphics and light workloads. The Radeon PRO V710 is a discrete, single-slot card with 28 GB of GDDR6 memory, 504.0 GB/s bandwidth, a 158 W TDP, and a 450 W suggested PSU. It sits at the 88th percentile and delivers compute scores that place it within 1% of the NVIDIA P102-100, AMD Radeon RX 6950 XT, and Intel Arc A570M.

The Radeon PRO V710 is the clear choice for anyone needing substantial compute throughput, large memory capacity, or ray tracing performance. Its 27.65 TFLOPS FP32 and FP16 (1:1) figures, combined with 54 ray tracing cores, make it suitable for rendering, scientific compute, or AI workloads. The Radeon 820M, with 716.8 GFLOPS FP32 and 2 ray tracing cores, is not in the same performance class.

The Radeon 820M is the only reasonable option for a system where power draw must stay minimal or where a discrete GPU is not an option. Its 15 W TDP and lack of power connectors mean it can run in thin-and-light laptops or compact systems without additional power delivery. The PRO V710 cannot serve that role.

Neither card has a launch MSRP in the database, so no price comparison is possible. The choice between the two rests entirely on workload requirements and system constraints.

Where Each One Wins

The Radeon PRO V710 wins in every compute-heavy scenario. Its 27.65 TFLOPS FP32 and FP16 (1:1) performance is 38.6x the Radeon 820M's 716.8 GFLOPS. Its pixel rate of 192.0 GPixel/s is roughly 17x the 820M's 11.20 GPixel/s. Its texture rate of 432.0 GTexel/s is roughly 19x the 820M's 22.40 GTexel/s. The PRO V710 also has 54 ray tracing cores versus the 820M's 2, making it the only viable option for ray-traced workloads.

The PRO V710's 28 GB memory capacity with 504.0 GB/s bandwidth gives it a decisive edge in workloads that require large datasets or high memory throughput. The 820M's system shared memory has no fixed size or bandwidth, making it unpredictable for memory-intensive tasks.

The Radeon 820M wins in power-constrained environments. Its 15 W TDP is more than 10x lower than the PRO V710's 158 W. It requires no power connectors, while the PRO V710 needs a single 8-pin connector and a 450 W PSU. The 820M is an IGP, so it occupies no expansion slot and fits in portable devices. The PRO V710 is single-slot and has no display outputs, so it cannot serve as a primary display adapter.

The Radeon 820M also has a higher boost clock at 2,800 MHz versus 2,000 MHz, though this does not compensate for the massive difference in core count. Its 4 nm process node is smaller than the PRO V710's 5 nm node, which contributes to its low power draw.

For a laptop or small form factor system where power delivery is limited, the 820M is the only sensible pick. For a workstation or server where compute throughput, memory capacity, and ray tracing matter, the PRO V710 is the clear choice. The data does not support any scenario where the 820M outperforms the PRO V710 in raw performance, but the 820M's power efficiency and integrated nature make it the practical option in its intended market segment.
