AMD Radeon Pro 5600M vs NVIDIA TITAN Xp Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The recorded data shows a decisive sweep: the NVIDIA TITAN Xp wins all nine shared benchmark comparisons against the AMD Radeon Pro 5600M, with no victories for the AMD part. The largest single gap appears in PassMark DirectX 11, where the TITAN Xp scores 152 versus 59 for the Radeon Pro 5600M, a delta of 157.6%. That is the widest margin in the entire head-to-head set, and it signals a fundamental advantage in legacy API workloads that the AMD card cannot close.

Compute-oriented tests tell a similar story. In PassMark GPU Compute, the TITAN Xp posts 9430 against 4031, a 133.9% advantage. The Geekbench OpenCL result is less extreme but still substantial: 72585 for the TITAN Xp versus 47783 for the Radeon Pro 5600M, a 51.9% lead. The Vulkan benchmark shows an even larger relative gap, with the TITAN Xp at 87180 and the AMD part at 46425, a delta of 87.8%. These numbers suggest that the NVIDIA GPU maintains a commanding lead across both vendor-agnostic compute frameworks and modern graphics APIs.

The DirectX suite reinforces the pattern. PassMark DirectX 10 yields 119 for the TITAN Xp against 62 for the Radeon Pro 5600M, a 91.9% difference. DirectX 9 shows 226 versus 118, a 91.5% gap. DirectX 12 narrows the margin somewhat, with 69 against 39, a 76.9% delta, but the TITAN Xp still wins comfortably. The 3D Mark Steel Nomad DX12 test, recorded only for the TITAN Xp at 2372, has no comparable score for the AMD card in this dataset, so it cannot be used for a direct head-to-head comparison.

The PassMark G3D score, often treated as a general gaming and graphics performance indicator, shows 18750 for the TITAN Xp versus 9279 for the Radeon Pro 5600M, a 102.1% advantage. Even the 2D performance test, which tends to be less dependent on raw shading power, favors the NVIDIA part: 883 against 679, a 30% lead. Across every measured category, the TITAN Xp outperforms the Radeon Pro 5600M by at least 30%, and in several cases by more than double.

Architecture Differences

The two GPUs come from fundamentally different design generations. The NVIDIA TITAN Xp uses the GP102 chip built on the Pascal architecture, manufactured on a 16 nm process at TSMC. It packs 11,800 million transistors into a 471 mm² die, yielding a transistor density of 25.1 million per square millimeter. The AMD Radeon Pro 5600M uses the Navi 12 chip based on RDNA 1.0, built on a 7 nm process, also at TSMC. The database does not list transistor count, die size, or density for the AMD part, so a direct comparison on those metrics is not possible from the recorded data.

The memory subsystems diverge sharply. The TITAN Xp uses 12 GB of GDDR5X on a 384 bit bus, delivering 547.6 GB/s of bandwidth. The Radeon Pro 5600M uses 8 GB of HBM2 on a 2048 bit bus, delivering 394.2 GB/s. Although the AMD card has a much wider bus, the lower memory clock results in lower overall bandwidth. The TITAN Xp's memory runs at 1426 MHz, or 11.4 Gbps effective, while the Radeon Pro 5600M's memory runs at 770 MHz, or 1540 Mbps effective.

The compute resources also differ significantly. The TITAN Xp has 3840 shading units, 240 texture mapping units, and 96 raster operation units. The Radeon Pro 5600M has 2560 shading units, 160 TMUs, and 64 ROPs. Neither card features dedicated ray tracing or tensor cores, according to the database. The TITAN Xp achieves a pixel rate of 151.9 GPixel/s and a texture rate of 379.7 GTexel/s, while the Radeon Pro 5600M reaches 73.22 GPixel/s and 183.0 GTexel/s respectively.

Floating point performance tells another part of the story. The TITAN Xp delivers 12.15 TFLOPS of FP32 compute, but only 189.8 GFLOPS of FP16, a 1:64 ratio. The Radeon Pro 5600M offers 5.857 TFLOPS of FP32 and 11.71 TFLOPS of FP16, a 2:1 ratio. This makes the AMD card dramatically stronger in half-precision work relative to its own FP32 throughput, but it still trails the TITAN Xp in raw FP32 performance by a wide margin.

Specification Differences

The two cards differ across nearly every recorded specification. The process node is the most obvious contrast: 16 nm for the TITAN Xp versus 7 nm for the Radeon Pro 5600M. The TITAN Xp has a base clock of 1405 MHz and a boost clock of 1582 MHz, while the Radeon Pro 5600M has a base clock of 822 MHz and a boost clock of 1144 MHz. The NVIDIA part runs at substantially higher clocks, which contributes to its performance lead despite the older process.

Memory capacity and type differ as well: 12 GB of GDDR5X versus 8 GB of HBM2. The bus widths are 384 bit and 2048 bit respectively, and bandwidth is 547.6 GB/s versus 394.2 GB/s. The TITAN Xp has a TDP of 250 W and requires a dual-slot cooler with one 6-pin and one 8-pin power connector, plus a suggested PSU of 600 W. The Radeon Pro 5600M has a TDP of 50 W, is an integrated graphics package (IGP) with no dedicated power connectors, and has no suggested PSU listed.

The bus interface also differs: PCIe 3.0 x16 for the TITAN Xp versus PCIe 4.0 x16 for the Radeon Pro 5600M. Display outputs are another point of separation: the TITAN Xp offers 1x HDMI 2.0 and 3x DisplayPort 1.4a, while the Radeon Pro 5600M's outputs are listed as "Portable Device Dependent," meaning it relies on the host system for display connectivity. Physical dimensions are recorded for the TITAN Xp at 267 mm in length, 112 mm in height, and 40 mm in width, while the Radeon Pro 5600M has no listed dimensions due to its integrated nature.

The API support is nearly identical: both support DirectX 12 (12_1) and OpenGL 4.6, with the TITAN Xp supporting Vulkan 1.4 and the Radeon Pro 5600M supporting Vulkan 1.3. Release dates also differ, with the TITAN Xp launching on April 5, 2017, and the Radeon Pro 5600M launching on June 14, 2020. Both are listed as end-of-life products.

The Verdict

The benchmark data is unambiguous. The NVIDIA TITAN Xp outperforms the AMD Radeon Pro 5600M in every shared test, with margins ranging from 30% in PassMark G2D to 157.6% in PassMark DirectX 11. The TITAN Xp's average benchmark score of 19177 places it at the 64th percentile among all GPUs, while the Radeon Pro 5600M's 16351 average places it at the 59th percentile. The nearest rivals for the TITAN Xp include the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780 at 19164 (0.1% delta), the NVIDIA Tesla K20m at 19089 (0.5%), the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4050 Mobile at 19049 (0.7%), and the AMD Radeon RX 6600 at 19036 (0.7%). For the Radeon Pro 5600M, the nearest rivals are the AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT at 16361 (-0.1%), the NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell at 16408 (-0.3%), the AMD Radeon PRO W7500 at 16415 (-0.4%), and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 D V2 at 16504 (-0.9%).

These rival placements show that the TITAN Xp sits in a performance tier roughly 17% higher than the Radeon Pro 5600M when comparing average scores. The TITAN Xp is a desktop-class card with a 250 W TDP, dual-slot footprint, and external power requirements, while the Radeon Pro 5600M is an integrated part designed for portable systems, drawing only 50 W with no dedicated power connectors. The TITAN Xp's launch MSRP was 1,199 USD, and it was released in 2017. The Radeon Pro 5600M has no recorded launch MSRP.

For users who prioritize raw graphics and compute throughput, the TITAN Xp is the clear choice based on the recorded data. For users who need a low-power integrated solution for a laptop-class system, the Radeon Pro 5600M is the only option that fits that form factor, but it sacrifices significant performance in every measured category.

Where Each One Wins

The NVIDIA TITAN Xp wins across every benchmark category in the head-to-head dataset. Its strongest areas are legacy DirectX workloads, where it leads by 91.5% to 157.6%, and compute throughput, where it leads by 51.9% to 133.9%. The TITAN Xp also dominates in PassMark G3D with a 102.1% advantage, making it the better choice for general graphics performance and gaming-oriented workloads. Its 3840 shading units and 96 ROPs give it a structural advantage in pixel-heavy tasks, and its 547.6 GB/s of memory bandwidth supports high-resolution texture streaming.

The AMD Radeon Pro 5600M has no benchmark wins in the shared tests, but it does have a recorded Geekbench Metal score of 55030, a test that the TITAN Xp does not have in the database. This indicates that the Radeon Pro 5600M has at least one measured strength in Apple's Metal API, which is relevant for macOS environments. The Radeon Pro 5600M also offers a 2:1 FP16 ratio, delivering 11.71 TFLOPS of half-precision compute, which exceeds its own FP32 throughput. The TITAN Xp's FP16 performance is only 189.8 GFLOPS, so for workloads that rely heavily on half-precision arithmetic, the Radeon Pro 5600M has a theoretical advantage, though no direct benchmark in this dataset confirms it.

The Radeon Pro 5600M's 50 W TDP and integrated form factor make it the only viable option for thin-and-light portable devices, as the TITAN Xp's 250 W TDP and dual-slot cooler require a desktop chassis with substantial airflow and power delivery. The Radeon Pro 5600M also supports PCIe 4.0, which offers higher interface bandwidth than the TITAN Xp's PCIe 3.0, though this does not translate into a performance win in any recorded benchmark. In summary, the TITAN Xp wins every measured performance contest, while the Radeon Pro 5600M wins on power efficiency, form factor, and platform compatibility for integrated systems.
