AMD Radeon PRO V710 vs AMD Ryzen Z2 GPU Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The recorded database contains benchmark results for only one of the two parts. The AMD Radeon PRO V710 has two submitted test scores: 853 points in 3DMark Steel Nomad (DX12) and 116,460 points in Geekbench OpenCL. The AMD Ryzen Z2 GPU has no benchmark entries in the database, so direct head-to-head comparisons are impossible. What can be quantified is the Radeon PRO V710's standing relative to all GPUs and its nearest recorded rivals.

The Radeon PRO V710 sits in the 88th percentile of all GPUs tracked by the database. Its average benchmark score across all recorded tests is 58,657. The nearest rival in the database is the NVIDIA P102-100, which averages 58,528 points, a delta of 0.2% in favor of the Radeon PRO V710. The AMD Radeon RX 6950 XT follows at 58,392 points, 0.5% behind. The Intel Arc A570M records 58,239 points, a 0.7% deficit. The AMD Radeon RX 5600 OEM rounds out the nearest rivals at 58,085 points, 1.0% behind. These deltas are small, indicating the Radeon PRO V710 performs within a tight band around its closest competitors. The margin over the RX 5600 OEM, while the largest in the group, is still just one percent.

The Ryzen Z2 GPU has an average benchmark score of zero and a 50th percentile ranking. With no recorded tests, the database offers no measured evidence of its performance level. The percentile field alone suggests it sits in the median position across all GPUs, but without actual scores, this value cannot be tied to specific workloads or compared directly to the Radeon PRO V710's measured results.

The Radeon PRO V710's two individual tests show a substantial gap between them in raw scale. The 3DMark Steel Nomad score of 853 is a DX12 workload that stresses graphics throughput, while the Geekbench OpenCL score of 116,460 reflects compute-oriented execution across the device. Neither score has a counterpart from the Ryzen Z2 GPU, so relative positioning between the two parts relies entirely on architectural and specification differences rather than measured outcomes.

The Verdict

From the recorded data, the Radeon PRO V710 is the only one of the two with measured benchmark evidence. Its 88th percentile ranking and average score of 58,657 place it among the upper tier of all GPUs in the database, with nearest rivals all within one percent. The Ryzen Z2 GPU, with no benchmark entries and a 50th percentile, cannot be positioned relative to the Radeon PRO V710 using performance data. Any selection between the two must rest on specification differences, since no measured comparison exists.

The Radeon PRO V710 is a single-slot card requiring a 158 W power draw and one 8-pin connector, with a suggested 450 W power supply. It has no display outputs, indicating a compute-oriented role rather than a rendering workstation. The Ryzen Z2 GPU consumes 28 W, uses no power connectors, and provides one USB Type-C display output. The Radeon PRO V710 is a discrete add-in board; the Ryzen Z2 GPU is an integrated-class part with a much lower power envelope.

Users needing a high-throughput compute device with 28 GB of memory and 504.0 GB/s of bandwidth would look to the Radeon PRO V710 based on its specification sheet and its measured benchmark standing. Users needing a low-power part with a display output would look to the Ryzen Z2 GPU, but the database contains no performance evidence for it. The data does not support a performance verdict in favor of the Ryzen Z2 GPU.

Architecture Differences

The two parts share the RDNA 3.0 architecture but implement it differently. The Radeon PRO V710 uses the Navi 32 chip on a 5 nm TSMC process, while the Ryzen Z2 GPU uses the Hawk Point chip on a 4 nm TSMC process. The Radeon PRO V710 belongs to the Radeon Pro Navi (Navi III Series) generation with the codename Wheat Nas; the Ryzen Z2 GPU is classified under Console GPU (AMD) with no codename recorded.

Transistor counts and die sizes differ substantially. The Radeon PRO V710 packs 28,100 million transistors into a 346 mm² die, yielding a transistor density of 81.2 million per mm². The Ryzen Z2 GPU contains 25,390 million transistors on a 178 mm² die, for a density of 142.6 million per mm². The Ryzen Z2 GPU achieves higher density due to the smaller 4 nm process, while the Radeon PRO V710 uses a larger die with more absolute transistors.

Compute resources diverge sharply. The Radeon PRO V710 has 3,456 shading units, 216 texture mapping units, and 96 raster output units. The Ryzen Z2 GPU has 768 shading units, 48 TMUs, and 32 ROPs. Ray tracing cores number 54 on the Radeon PRO V710 versus 12 on the Ryzen Z2 GPU. Neither part has tensor cores recorded.

Rates and throughput follow the resource counts. The Radeon PRO V710 achieves 192.0 GPixel/s pixel rate and 432.0 GTexel/s texture rate. The Ryzen Z2 GPU achieves 86.40 GPixel/s and 129.6 GTexel/s. FP32 and FP16 performance are identical within each part, at 27.65 TFLOPS for the Radeon PRO V710 and 8.294 TFLOPS for the Ryzen Z2 GPU. The Radeon PRO V710 delivers roughly 3.3 times the FP32 throughput of the Ryzen Z2 GPU, based on these recorded figures.

Both parts support DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4. The Radeon PRO V710 is built on PCIe 4.0 x16, while the Ryzen Z2 GPU has no bus interface recorded. The Radeon PRO V710 has no display outputs; the Ryzen Z2 GPU has one USB Type-C output. Production status is recorded only for the Ryzen Z2 GPU, which is listed as Active.

Specification Differences

Memory configuration differs in size, type, bus width, and bandwidth. The Radeon PRO V710 uses 28 GB of GDDR6 on a 224-bit bus, delivering 504.0 GB/s. The Ryzen Z2 GPU uses 16 GB of LPDDR5X on a 128-bit bus, delivering 119.9 GB/s. The Radeon PRO V710 offers more capacity, a wider bus, and more than four times the bandwidth.

Clock behavior differs in both base and boost. The Radeon PRO V710 runs at 1900 MHz base and 2000 MHz boost, with memory at 2250 MHz (18 Gbps effective). The Ryzen Z2 GPU runs at 800 MHz base and 2700 MHz boost, with memory at 937 MHz (7.5 Gbps effective). The Ryzen Z2 GPU has a higher boost clock but a much lower base clock.

Power characteristics point to different deployment targets. The Radeon PRO V710 has a TDP of 158 W, uses one 8-pin power connector, and suggests a 450 W power supply. The Ryzen Z2 GPU has a TDP of 28 W, uses no power connectors, and has no suggested power supply recorded. The Radeon PRO V710 is single-slot; the Ryzen Z2 GPU has no slot width recorded.

Release dates differ by roughly three months. The Radeon PRO V710 was released on October 2, 2024. The Ryzen Z2 GPU was released on December 31, 2024. The Radeon PRO V710 lists a predecessor, the Radeon Pro Vega, while the Ryzen Z2 GPU has no predecessor or successor recorded. Neither part has a successor listed.

The Radeon PRO V710's shading unit count is 4.5 times that of the Ryzen Z2 GPU. TMUs are 4.5 times higher, ROPs are 3 times higher, and ray tracing cores are 4.5 times higher. The Radeon PRO V710's FP32 output of 27.65 TFLOPS is 3.3 times the Ryzen Z2 GPU's 8.294 TFLOPS. These ratios align with the shading unit and TMU counts, indicating consistent scaling across the compute pipeline. The ROP ratio is lower, which reduces the pixel rate advantage to 2.2 times (192.0 versus 86.40 GPixel/s).
