AMD Radeon 880M vs NVIDIA RTX PRO 4500 Blackwell Server Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The recorded database contains benchmark scores for the AMD Radeon 880M across ten tests, while the NVIDIA RTX PRO 4500 Blackwell Server has no recorded benchmark entries. This absence of comparative data means the head-to-head comparison relies on the AMD part's absolute scores and the architectural specifications of the NVIDIA part.

The AMD Radeon 880M delivers an average benchmark score of 8436, placing it in the 43rd percentile among all GPUs tracked in the database. Its strongest result comes from the Geekbench Vulkan test, where it scores 40006, followed by the Geekbench OpenCL test at 31285. The Passmark G3D test shows 7615, while the Passmark G2D test records 969. Compute-oriented workloads produce a Passmark GPU compute score of 3719.

In DirectX-specific tests, the AMD part records 535 in 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12, 32 in Passmark DirectX 12, 73 in Passmark DirectX 11, 31 in Passmark DirectX 10, and 97 in Passmark DirectX 9. The nearest rival scores from the database show the AMD Radeon 880M sits nearly level with the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 675MX, which averages 8427, a delta of 0.1 percent. The NVIDIA GeForce MX330 averages 8458, a delta of -0.3 percent. The AMD Radeon HD 8870M averages 8462, also a delta of -0.3 percent. The AMD Radeon R9 M375X averages 8325, a delta of 1.3 percent, meaning the 880M leads that part by 1.3 percent.

Since the NVIDIA RTX PRO 4500 Blackwell Server has no benchmark scores in the database, no direct performance delta can be calculated. The NVIDIA part occupies the 50th percentile by classification, but with an average benchmark score of zero, the percentile ranking reflects its category placement rather than measured results. The data confirms the AMD part is a functional, measurable IGP, while the NVIDIA part is a server-class accelerator whose performance remains unquantified in this database.

Architecture Differences

The AMD Radeon 880M uses the Strix Point chip built on a 4 nm process at TSMC, employing the RDNA 3.5 architecture. The die measures 233 mm² and contains 34,000 million transistors, yielding a transistor density of 145.9 million per mm². The NVIDIA RTX PRO 4500 Blackwell Server uses the GB203 chip on a 5 nm process, also at TSMC, with the Blackwell 2.0 architecture. Its die is larger at 378 mm² and holds 45,600 million transistors, giving a density of 120.6 million per mm². The AMD part achieves higher transistor density despite the smaller die and fewer total transistors.

Clock behavior differs substantially. The AMD part runs a base clock of 400 MHz and boosts to 2900 MHz. The NVIDIA part has a base clock of 1215 MHz and boosts to 2415 MHz. The AMD part's higher boost clock reflects its IGP design, while the NVIDIA part's higher base clock and lower boost ceiling indicate a sustained-load server profile.

Memory architecture separates the two fundamentally. The AMD Radeon 880M uses system-shared memory, with its type, bus width, and bandwidth all listed as system dependent. The NVIDIA RTX PRO 4500 Blackwell Server carries 32 GB of GDDR7 memory on a 256-bit bus, delivering 800.3 GB/s of bandwidth. The memory clock for the NVIDIA part is 1563 MHz with 25 Gbps effective data rate. This dedicated memory arrangement gives the NVIDIA part a fixed, high-bandwidth resource, whereas the AMD part's memory performance depends entirely on the host system.

Shader resources show a wide gap. The AMD part has 768 shading units, 48 texture mapping units, 16 ROPs, and 12 ray tracing cores. The NVIDIA part has 10,496 shading units, 328 TMUs, 112 ROPs, and 82 ray tracing cores, plus 328 tensor cores. The NVIDIA part's pixel rate is 270.5 GPixel/s versus 46.40 GPixel/s for the AMD part. Texture rate is 792.1 GTexel/s versus 139.2 GTexel/s. Floating-point performance is 50.70 TFLOPS for the NVIDIA part versus 4.454 TFLOPS for the AMD part, with both parts showing fp16 at a 1:1 ratio to fp32.

Power and physical design differ. The AMD part has a TDP of 15 W, is an IGP with no power connectors, and uses a PCIe 4.0 x8 interface. The NVIDIA part has a TDP of 165 W, is a single-slot card with a 1x 16-pin power connector, and uses PCIe 5.0 x16. The NVIDIA part measures 267 mm in length, 111 mm in height, and 40 mm in width. The AMD part has no listed dimensions due to its integrated nature. Display outputs on the AMD part are portable-device dependent, while the NVIDIA part has no outputs at all, confirming its server-only role.

Both parts support DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4. Production status for both is active. The AMD part released on 2024-07-14, while the NVIDIA part released on 2026-03-16. The AMD part's predecessor is Navi II IGP, and the NVIDIA part's predecessor is Server Hopper, with its successor listed as Server Rubin.

The Verdict

The data shows two devices built for entirely different workloads. The AMD Radeon 880M is a low-power integrated graphics solution with a 15 W TDP, designed for portable systems where the host provides memory and display output. Its benchmark scores, while modest in absolute terms, place it in the 43rd percentile, with an average score of 8436 and nearest rivals within a 1.3 percent delta. This indicates a functional entry-level IGP that can handle basic 3D workloads and compute tasks, as evidenced by its Geekbench scores of 31285 OpenCL and 40006 Vulkan.

The NVIDIA RTX PRO 4500 Blackwell Server is a high-power, single-slot server accelerator with a 165 W TDP, dedicated 32 GB GDDR7 memory, and no display outputs. Its 50th percentile classification and zero average benchmark score mean the database cannot confirm its real-world performance. However, the architectural data indicates a part with 10,496 shading units, 328 tensor cores, and 50.70 TFLOPS of fp32 compute, which positions it for server-side rendering, AI inference, and high-throughput compute tasks where memory bandwidth of 800.3 GB/s matters.

Users requiring an integrated graphics solution for a portable device should select the AMD part based on its measurable benchmark activity and system-shared memory model. Users deploying a server GPU with dedicated memory, no display output, and high compute throughput should select the NVIDIA part, but must rely on its specification profile rather than measured benchmarks, since the database contains no scores for it.

Where Each One Wins

The AMD Radeon 880M wins in scenarios requiring minimal power draw, as its 15 W TDP and integrated design eliminate the need for external power connectors. It also wins in portability, since its display outputs are portable-device dependent, meaning it adapts to the host system's display configuration. Its PCIe 4.0 x8 interface suits thin-and-light laptops or compact devices where space and power are constrained. The benchmark data shows it performs competitively against older discrete mobile GPUs, with a 1.3 percent lead over the AMD Radeon R9 M375X and a 0.1 percent lead over the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 675MX. Its high boost clock of 2900 MHz suggests responsiveness in bursty workloads.

The NVIDIA RTX PRO 4500 Blackwell Server wins in raw compute throughput, as its 50.70 TFLOPS fp32 performance dwarfs the AMD part's 4.454 TFLOPS. It wins in memory bandwidth, with 800.3 GB/s versus the system-dependent bandwidth of the AMD part. Its dedicated 32 GB GDDR7 memory ensures consistent memory availability regardless of host system configuration. The NVIDIA part wins in multi-core graphics workloads, with 10,496 shading units versus 768, and in ray tracing, with 82 RT cores versus 12. Its 328 tensor cores enable AI acceleration, a feature the AMD part lacks entirely. The NVIDIA part's PCIe 5.0 x16 interface provides double the lane width and a newer protocol generation compared to the AMD part's PCIe 4.0 x8.

For server deployments, the NVIDIA part wins because it has no display outputs, which is appropriate for headless compute nodes. Its single-slot form factor and 1x 16-pin power connector with a suggested PSU of 450 W fit standard server chassis. The AMD part wins in integrated scenarios where no discrete card can be installed, and where the host system's memory is sufficient for the workload. The data confirms that the AMD part is a functional IGP with measurable performance, while the NVIDIA part is a specification-rich server accelerator awaiting benchmark validation in the database.
