AMD Radeon 860M vs NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti SUPER Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The recorded database contains no direct head-to-head benchmark comparisons between the AMD Radeon 860M and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti SUPER. Each product was measured under different test suites, which limits direct score-for-score comparisons. The Radeon 860M posts a Geekbench OpenCL score of 22,759 and a Vulkan score of 30,043, giving it an average benchmark score of 26,401. The RTX 5070 Ti SUPER records a single 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 6,269.5, which becomes its average benchmark score of 6,270.

The percentile rankings place these two products in very different positions. The Radeon 860M sits in the 72nd percentile of all GPUs in the database, while the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER ranks in the 36th percentile. This indicates that the Radeon 860M outperforms a larger share of the GPU population in its recorded tests, whereas the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER's single benchmark result places it lower relative to other recorded GPUs.

When examining nearest rivals, the Radeon 860M trades nearly evenly with the NVIDIA GeForce MX550, which scores 26,421, a delta of -0.1 percent. It also edges out the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 by 0.3 percent, with the RTX 5060 scoring 26,331. Against the AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT 50th Anniversary, the 860M trails by 0.6 percent, and it sits 1.1 percent behind the NVIDIA RTX A4000, which scores 26,683. These deltas are all within roughly one percent, indicating that the Radeon 860M's average benchmark performance clusters tightly with a group of mid-range GPUs.

The RTX 5070 Ti SUPER's nearest rivals show a similar pattern of near-identical scores. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER AD102 matches the 5070 Ti SUPER exactly at 6,270, a delta of 0 percent. The NVIDIA Quadro K620 scores 6,282, which is 0.2 percent higher. The AMD FirePro W600 scores 6,223, putting the 5070 Ti SUPER 0.8 percent ahead. The AMD Radeon R7 M350 scores 6,327, which is 0.9 percent higher than the 5070 Ti SUPER. The narrow delta range again suggests that the single recorded benchmark places this GPU in a cluster of comparable performers, though the absolute score level differs drastically from the Radeon 860M's results.

The data shows that these two GPUs occupy entirely separate performance tiers as measured by their respective benchmark suites. The Radeon 860M's average score of 26,401 is roughly four times higher than the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER's 6,270, but this difference reflects the distinct test methodologies rather than a direct performance comparison. The Radeon 860M's tests emphasize compute workloads through Geekbench, while the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER's test focuses on DX12 gaming workloads through 3DMark Steel Nomad.

Where Each One Wins

The AMD Radeon 860M demonstrates clear strengths in compute-oriented benchmarks. Its Geekbench OpenCL score of 22,759 and Vulkan score of 30,043 show strong performance in cross-platform compute and graphics API workloads. The Vulkan result exceeds the OpenCL result by roughly 32 percent, indicating that the RDNA 3.5 architecture handles Vulkan workloads particularly well. This GPU also records a higher average benchmark score than the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060, a discrete mobile GPU, by 0.3 percent, which is notable given the 860M's integrated design.

The Radeon 860M's 72nd percentile ranking places it above many discrete GPUs in the database. Its nearest rivals include the NVIDIA GeForce MX550, a dedicated laptop GPU, and the AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT 50th Anniversary, a desktop-class card. The 860M essentially matches or slightly trails these products, which indicates that the integrated processor can deliver competitive compute performance in a much lower power envelope.

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti SUPER's strength lies in its DX12 gaming benchmark. The 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 6,269.5 represents a modern gaming workload that stresses ray tracing and DX12 features. The GPU matches the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER AD102 exactly, which suggests that the 5070 Ti SUPER delivers gaming performance on par with that previous-generation card. The 0.8 percent lead over the AMD FirePro W600 and the 0.9 percent deficit to the AMD Radeon R7 M350 indicate that the 5070 Ti SUPER's single benchmark result falls within a narrow competitive band.

For use-case splitting, the Radeon 860M suits compute-heavy tasks like OpenCL and Vulkan workloads, where its scores reach 22,759 and 30,043 respectively. The RTX 5070 Ti SUPER suits DX12 gaming scenarios, as evidenced by its Steel Nomad result. The two products do not overlap in their recorded test suites, so each one wins within its own benchmark domain.

Architecture Differences

The AMD Radeon 860M uses the Krackan Point chip built on RDNA 3.5 architecture, produced on TSMC's 4 nm process. It belongs to the Navi III IGP generation for Strix Point Mobile. The GPU integrates 512 shading units, 32 texture mapping units, and 16 render output units. It includes 8 ray tracing cores and no dedicated tensor cores. The base clock runs at 600 MHz with a boost clock of 3,000 MHz. The FP32 compute rate measures 3.072 TFLOPS, and the FP16 rate matches at 3.072 TFLOPS with a 1:1 ratio. Pixel rate reaches 48.00 GPixel/s with a texture rate of 96.00 GTexel/s.

Memory for the Radeon 860M is entirely system shared. The memory size, type, bus width, and bandwidth all depend on the host system. Bandwidth is system dependent, and the memory clock is listed as "System Shared." The GPU uses a PCIe 4.0 x8 bus interface and requires no power connectors, with a TDP of just 15 W. The slot width is IGP, meaning it is integrated into the processor package. Display outputs are portable device dependent.

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti SUPER uses the GB203 chip built on Blackwell 2.0 architecture, produced on TSMC's 5 nm process. It belongs to the GeForce 50 generation. The GPU contains 45,600 million transistors on a 378 mm² die, giving a transistor density of 120.6 million per mm². The GPU packs 8,960 shading units, 280 texture mapping units, and 96 render output units. It includes 70 ray tracing cores and 280 tensor cores.

The transistor count difference is similarly large, with the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER packing 45,600 million transistors versus an unknown count for the Radeon 860M. The process nodes differ by one generation step, with the Radeon 860M on 4 nm and the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER on 5 nm.

Both GPUs support DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4. The Radeon 860M lacks tensor cores entirely, while the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER includes 280 of them. The Radeon 860M's ray tracing core count of 8 is far lower than the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER's 70. Power consumption differs by a factor of over 23, with the Radeon 860M at 15 W versus the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER at 350 W.

The Verdict

The data presents two GPUs designed for entirely different purposes. The AMD Radeon 860M is an integrated processor with a 15 W TDP, system-shared memory, and no power connectors. Its benchmark results show competitive compute performance in the 72nd percentile of all GPUs, matching or nearly matching discrete options like the NVIDIA GeForce MX550, the GeForce RTX 5060, and the Radeon RX 5700 XT 50th Anniversary. The 860M's average score of 26,401 comes from Geekbench tests that exercise OpenCL and Vulkan compute paths.

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti SUPER is a discrete dual-slot graphics card with a 350 W TDP, 16 GB of GDDR7 memory, and a 16-pin power connector. Its single 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 6,269.5 places it in the 36th percentile, but this measurement targets a specific gaming workload rather than general compute. The card matches the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER AD102 exactly and trades within one percent of several other GPUs in the database.

For users selecting between these products, the Radeon 860M serves systems where power draw must remain minimal and memory is shared with the host processor. The RTX 5070 Ti SUPER serves desktop systems with dedicated power delivery and high-bandwidth GDDR7 memory. The RTX 5070 Ti SUPER offers a launch MSRP of 749 USD, while the Radeon 860M has no recorded launch MSRP. The RTX 5070 Ti SUPER's 896.0 GB/s bandwidth versus the 860M's system-dependent bandwidth illustrates the memory advantage of the discrete card. The 860M's 3.072 TFLOPS versus the 5070 Ti SUPER's 43.94 TFLOPS shows the compute gap. The 860M's 8 ray tracing cores versus the 5070 Ti SUPER's 70 indicates a large difference in ray tracing capability.

The verdict from the recorded data is straightforward: the Radeon 860M fits integrated mobile platforms where compute efficiency matters and external power is unavailable. The RTX 5070 Ti SUPER fits high-end desktop gaming systems where DX12 performance and dedicated memory bandwidth are priorities. No direct head-to-head benchmark exists, so any direct comparison must rely on the respective strengths each GPU shows in its own test environment.
