Analysis: AMD Radeon PRO V710 vs NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER
The AMD Radeon PRO V710 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER occupy different corners of the GPU market, and the benchmark data reflects that split clearly. The RTX 4080 SUPER wins both head-to-head tests by wide margins, but the V710 counters with a distinct feature set that includes substantially more memory and dramatically lower power requirements. The data shows two purpose-built products: one optimized for raw rendering performance, the other for professional compute workloads with specific capacity and efficiency constraints.
The Verdict
From the available benchmark scores, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER is the clear performance leader. It delivers a 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 6600 versus 853 for the AMD Radeon PRO V710, a delta of -87.1% in favor of NVIDIA. In Geekbench OpenCL, the RTX 4080 SUPER scores 219065 against 116460, a -46.8% difference. The data suggests that for any workload where raw graphics or compute throughput is the primary criterion, the RTX 4080 SUPER is the appropriate choice. Its 52.22 TFLOPS FP32 performance, 816.0 GTexel/s texture rate, and 285.6 GPixel/s pixel rate dwarf the V710's corresponding values of 27.65 TFLOPS, 432.0 GTexel/s, and 192.0 GPixel/s.
However, the AMD Radeon PRO V710 offers 28 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 224-bit bus, compared to 16 GB of GDDR6X on a 256-bit bus for the RTX 4080 SUPER. This 12 GB capacity advantage is significant for workloads that exceed 16 GB of VRAM usage, such as large model inference or high-resolution texture sets. The V710 also consumes only 158 W against the RTX 4080 SUPER's 320 W, requiring a 450 W suggested PSU versus 700 W. For a system builder prioritizing memory capacity and power efficiency over frame rates, the V710 fills a specific niche that the RTX 4080 SUPER cannot. The RTX 4080 SUPER is end-of-life production status, while the V710 has no such designation listed.
Architecture Differences
The two GPUs stem from different architectural philosophies. The AMD Radeon PRO V710 uses the Navi 32 chip built on RDNA 3.0 architecture, codenamed Wheat Nas, part of the Radeon Pro Navi (Navi III Series) generation. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER uses the AD103 chip with Ada Lovelace architecture, from the GeForce 40-series. Both are fabricated by TSMC on a 5 nm process, but the similarities end there. The V710 has 28,100 million transistors on a 346 mm² die, yielding a transistor density of 81.2M per mm². The RTX 4080 SUPER packs 45,900 million transistors into a 379 mm² die, achieving 121.1M per mm² density — a 63% higher transistor count on a 9.5% larger die.
Core configuration differences are substantial. The V710 has 3456 shading units, 216 TMUs, 96 ROPs, and 54 ray tracing cores, with no tensor cores listed. The RTX 4080 SUPER has 10240 shading units, 320 TMUs, 112 ROPs, 80 ray tracing cores, and 320 tensor cores. The RTX 4080 SUPER’s shading unit count is nearly three times higher, which directly explains its 52.22 TFLOPS FP32 output versus 27.65 TFLOPS for the V710. Both support DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4, so API-level compatibility is identical. The V710 has no display outputs, while the RTX 4080 SUPER offers 1x HDMI 2.1 and 3x DisplayPort 1.4a — a critical distinction for workstation setups requiring video output.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks
The 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 test shows the most dramatic gap. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER scores 6600, while the AMD Radeon PRO V710 scores 853. This -87.1% delta means the RTX 4080 SUPER delivers roughly 7.7 times the performance in this specific DirectX 12 workload. The result aligns with the core configuration differences: 10240 shading units and 80 ray tracing cores versus 3456 and 54 respectively. The RTX 4080 SUPER’s higher boost clock of 2550 MHz versus 2000 MHz also contributes, as does its 736.3 GB/s memory bandwidth versus 504.0 GB/s.
The Geekbench OpenCL test shows a smaller but still decisive gap. The RTX 4080 SUPER scores 219065 against 116460 for the V710, a -46.8% delta. This indicates the RTX 4080 SUPER is roughly 1.88 times faster in compute-oriented OpenCL workloads. The advantage here is less extreme than in 3DMark, suggesting the V710’s compute efficiency per shading unit is relatively strong. The V710’s 27.65 TFLOPS FP32 translates to approximately 8.01 TFLOPS per 1000 shading units, while the RTX 4080 SUPER’s 52.22 TFLOPS over 10240 units yields about 5.10 TFLOPS per 1000 units. The V710’s higher per-unit throughput partially compensates for its lower core count.
The RTX 4080 SUPER wins both head-to-head tests, giving it a 2-0 record. The V710 has zero wins. However, the broader benchmark picture complicates this narrative. The V710’s average benchmark score of 58657 exceeds the RTX 4080 SUPER’s 54209, and the V710’s nearest rivals (NVIDIA P102-100 at 58528, AMD Radeon RX 6950 XT at 58392) are all within 1% of its average. The RTX 4080 SUPER’s nearest rivals (RTX 4080 at 54247, Radeon Pro W5700X at 54828) are also tightly clustered, but around a lower average.
Where Each One Wins
The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER wins decisively in any workload measured by the head-to-head benchmarks. For 3D rendering, gaming, or DirectX 12 applications, its 3DMark Steel Nomad score of 6600 versus 853 makes it the only reasonable choice from this data. Its higher FP32 throughput (52.22 TFLOPS versus 27.65 TFLOPS), faster memory bandwidth (736.3 GB/s versus 504.0 GB/s), and higher texture rate (816.0 GTexel/s versus 432.0 GTexel/s) all point to superior performance in texture-heavy and compute-heavy scenarios. The presence of 320 tensor cores and 80 ray tracing cores, versus zero tensor cores and 54 ray tracing cores for the V710, suggests an advantage in AI-accelerated and ray-traced workloads, though no direct benchmarks confirm this.
The AMD Radeon PRO V710 wins on capacity and efficiency. Its 28 GB of memory versus 16 GB means it can handle datasets that would overflow the RTX 4080 SUPER’s frame buffer. The 158 W TDP versus 320 W makes it suitable for dense multi-GPU configurations or systems with limited power delivery. The single-slot design, compared to triple-slot for the RTX 4080 SUPER, allows more GPUs per chassis. The V710’s 88th percentile ranking versus the RTX 4080 SUPER’s 86th percentile, combined with its higher average benchmark score of 58657 versus 54209, indicates the V710 performs relatively better across the broader benchmark suite, even if it loses the two direct comparisons. For professional compute environments where memory capacity, power efficiency, and multi-GPU density matter more than peak FPS, the V710 presents a compelling profile — provided the workload does not require display outputs, as the V710 has none.
