AMD Radeon 880M vs NVIDIA B200 SXM6 Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The recorded database contains benchmark scores for the AMD Radeon 880M but no comparable scores for the NVIDIA B200 SXM6. The B200 SXM6 has no entries in any benchmark suite, leaving its average benchmark score at zero and its percentile ranking at 50. The Radeon 880M, by contrast, has ten recorded scores across multiple test suites.

The Radeon 880M delivers an average benchmark score of 8436, placing it at the 43rd percentile among all GPUs in the database. Its nearest rivals show a tightly clustered field: the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 675MX scores 8427, which is 0.1 percent ahead of the 880M. The NVIDIA GeForce MX330 scores 8458, 0.3 percent ahead. The AMD Radeon HD 8870M also scores 8458, matching the MX330 with a 0.3 percent advantage over the 880M. The AMD Radeon R9 M375X trails at 8325, putting the 880M 1.3 percent ahead of that part.

Within its own benchmark results, the 880M shows a wide spread across API workloads. Its strongest showing is in Geekbench Vulkan at 40006, followed by Geekbench OpenCL at 31285. The Passmark G3D score of 7615 and Passmark G2D score of 969 indicate solid 2D and general 3D capability. The compute-oriented Passmark GPU compute test returns 3719. DirectX results are much lower: Passmark DirectX 11 scores 73, DirectX 9 scores 97, DirectX 10 scores 31, and DirectX 12 scores 32. The 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 test returns 535.

The B200 SXM6 has no benchmark data to compare. Its compute resources are substantial on paper, with FP32 throughput of 69.34 TFLOPS and FP16 of 69.34 TFLOPS at a 1:1 ratio. The Radeon 880M delivers 4.454 TFLOPS in both FP32 and FP16, also at 1:1. The B200 SXM6's texture rate reaches 1,083.4 GTexel/s versus 139.2 GTexel/s for the 880M. Pixel rates are nearly identical: 46.40 GPixel/s for the 880M and 43.92 GPixel/s for the B200 SXM6. Without recorded benchmark scores for the B200 SXM6, the database cannot confirm how these theoretical rates translate into measured performance.

The head-to-head comparison table in the database is empty, and the win counters for both products are zero. Any direct comparison of measured performance between these two parts is therefore impossible from the recorded data.

Architecture Differences

The AMD Radeon 880M uses the Strix Point chip built on RDNA 3.5 architecture, part of the Navi III IGP generation for Strix Point Mobile. It is fabricated by TSMC on a 4 nm process. The NVIDIA B200 SXM6 uses the GB100 chip built on Blackwell architecture, part of the Server Blackwell generation. It is also fabricated by TSMC but on a 5 nm process.

The transistor counts differ enormously. The 880M integrates 34,000 million transistors on a 233 mm² die, yielding a density of 145.9 million per square millimeter. The B200 SXM6 integrates 208,000 million transistors on a 1628 mm² die, yielding a density of 127.8 million per square millimeter. The density difference favors the 4 nm process, but the B200 SXM6's raw transistor count is roughly six times larger.

Core configurations diverge substantially. The 880M has 768 shading units, 48 texture mapping units, 16 raster operation units, and 12 ray tracing cores. It has no dedicated tensor cores. The B200 SXM6 has 18,944 shading units, 592 texture mapping units, 24 raster operation units, and 592 tensor cores. It has no listed ray tracing cores. The 880M supports DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4. The B200 SXM6 lists N/A for DirectX, OpenGL, and Vulkan, reflecting its server-oriented feature set rather than a consumer graphics API stack.

Memory architecture also separates the two. The 880M relies on system shared memory, making its bandwidth and capacity dependent on the host platform. The B200 SXM6 uses 180 GB of HBM3e on an 8192-bit bus with 8.19 TB/s of bandwidth. The B200 SXM6's memory clock is listed as 2000 MHz with 8 Gbps effective data rate.

Clock behavior differs as well. The 880M has a base clock of 400 MHz and a boost clock of 2900 MHz. The B200 SXM6 has a base clock of 120 MHz and a boost clock of 1830 MHz. The 880M's higher boost clock partially compensates for its lower core count in some throughput calculations, but the B200 SXM6's massive shading unit count dominates raw FP32 output.

Where Each One Wins

The Radeon 880M wins in areas tied to consumer graphics and integrated operation. It supports DirectX 12 Ultimate, OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4, making it suitable for gaming and general-purpose graphics workloads on mobile platforms. Its 12 ray tracing cores provide hardware acceleration for ray-traced effects, a feature absent from the B200 SXM6's specification sheet. The 880M's pixel rate of 46.40 GPixel/s slightly exceeds the B200 SXM6's 43.92 GPixel/s, giving it a marginal advantage in fill-rate-bound scenarios. Its 15 W TDP and lack of power connectors fit the IGP form factor, and its PCIe 4.0 x8 interface suits portable devices. The 880M's transistor density of 145.9 million per mm² is higher than the B200 SXM6's 127.8 million per mm², indicating a more area-efficient design.

The B200 SXM6 wins decisively in raw compute throughput and memory capacity. Its 69.34 TFLOPS of FP32 and FP16 output is over 15 times the 880M's 4.454 TFLOPS. Texture rate of 1,083.4 GTexel/s is nearly eight times the 880M's 139.2 GTexel/s. The 180 GB HBM3e memory pool with 8.19 TB/s bandwidth provides massive data movement capability, while the 880M's system shared memory offers no fixed capacity or bandwidth guarantee. The B200 SXM6's 592 tensor cores give it dedicated hardware for matrix operations, which the 880M lacks entirely. Its 18,944 shading units dwarf the 880M's 768, and its 592 texture mapping units far exceed the 880M's 48. The B200 SXM6 uses PCIe 6.0 x16, double the lane count and a newer generation than the 880M's PCIe 4.0 x8. Its 1000 W TDP and 1400 W suggested PSU reflect a design for sustained high-throughput server workloads rather than power-constrained mobile use.

The database does not provide benchmark scores for the B200 SXM6, so its measured wins cannot be quantified. The recorded data indicates that the 880M has an average benchmark score of 8436 and sits at the 43rd percentile, while the B200 SXM6 has no scores and sits at the 50th percentile by default. The nearest rival data for the 880M shows a competitive field within one percent on either side. For the B200 SXM6, no rival comparisons exist in the database.

Use-case separation is clear from specifications. The 880M is built for integrated graphics in portable devices, with display outputs dependent on the host system, no external power requirement, and a compact IGP slot. The B200 SXM6 is built for server acceleration, with no display outputs, an SXM module form factor, and a power envelope that requires a 1400 W power supply. The 880M's architecture and API support target consumer software ecosystems. The B200 SXM6's architecture targets compute-heavy environments where graphics API compatibility is irrelevant.
