AMD Radeon PRO V710 vs NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 Mobile Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The benchmark data delivers a definitive verdict: the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 Mobile wins both recorded head-to-head comparisons, and it does so by substantial margins. In the 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 test, the RTX 5090 Mobile scores 5,871 against the Radeon PRO V710's 853, a delta of 85.5% in NVIDIA's favor. This is not a narrow victory; it is a dominant one. The Steel Nomad workload, which stresses modern DirectX 12 rendering pipelines, exposes a massive gap between the two parts.

The second recorded benchmark, Geekbench OpenCL, tells a similar story. The RTX 5090 Mobile posts a score of 201,834, while the Radeon PRO V710 manages 116,460. The delta here is 42.3% in NVIDIA's favor. While the margin is smaller than in Steel Nomad, it is still a decisive win. OpenCL workloads often scale with raw compute throughput and memory bandwidth, and the data shows NVIDIA holding a clear advantage in both areas.

The overall benchmark averages reinforce this picture. The Radeon PRO V710 carries an average benchmark score of 58,657, while the RTX 5090 Mobile averages 45,152. However, these averages include different test sets. The V710's average is built from just two tests (Steel Nomad and OpenCL), whereas the RTX 5090 Mobile's average incorporates ten tests, including multiple Passmark entries. The Passmark DirectX 9, 10, 11, and 12 scores for the RTX 5090 Mobile are all relatively low (324, 183, 269, and 138 respectively), which drags its average down. In the two tests where both GPUs were measured head-to-head, NVIDIA wins both. The percentile rankings also differ: the V710 sits in the 88th percentile of all GPUs, while the RTX 5090 Mobile ranks in the 84th percentile. The V710's higher percentile reflects its narrower benchmark set and its proximity to rivals like the NVIDIA P102-100 (0.2% delta), the AMD Radeon RX 6950 XT (0.5% delta), and the Intel Arc A570M (0.7% delta). The RTX 5090 Mobile, by contrast, sits within 1.8% of the RTX 5880 Ada Generation, 1% of the Intel Arc A730M, and 0.8% of the RTX 4070 Ti.

Architecture Differences

The two GPUs come from different architectural lineages. The AMD Radeon PRO V710 uses the Navi 32 chip built on RDNA 3.0 architecture, with the codename "Wheat Nas." The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 Mobile uses the GB203 chip built on Blackwell 2.0 architecture, part of the GeForce 50-series lineup. Both are manufactured by TSMC on a 5 nm process, but the similarities end there.

The transistor counts differ sharply. The RTX 5090 Mobile packs 45,600 million transistors on a 378 mm² die, yielding a transistor density of 120.6 million per mm². The V710 carries 28,100 million transistors on a smaller 346 mm² die, with a density of 81.2 million per mm². The NVIDIA chip is both larger and denser, which correlates with its higher compute throughput.

The compute configurations diverge substantially. The RTX 5090 Mobile features 10,496 shading units, 328 texture mapping units, 112 render output units, 82 ray tracing cores, and 328 tensor cores. The V710 offers 3,456 shading units, 216 TMUs, 96 ROPs, and 54 ray tracing cores, with no tensor core count listed. The NVIDIA part has roughly three times the shading units and more than double the ray tracing cores, which helps explain its benchmark dominance.

Clock speeds tell a different story. The V710 runs at a base clock of 1900 MHz and boosts to 2000 MHz. The RTX 5090 Mobile runs much lower: 990 MHz base and 1515 MHz boost. Despite the lower clocks, the RTX 5090 Mobile's wider execution resources deliver higher peak throughput. The V710 achieves 27.65 TFLOPS FP32, while the RTX 5090 Mobile reaches 31.80 TFLOPS FP32. Both GPUs support FP16 at a 1:1 ratio with FP32.

Memory subsystems also diverge. The V710 uses 28 GB of GDDR6 on a 224-bit bus, delivering 504.0 GB/s of bandwidth. The RTX 5090 Mobile uses 24 GB of GDDR7 on a 256-bit bus, delivering 896.0 GB/s. The NVIDIA part has less capacity but significantly higher bandwidth, which benefits memory-intensive workloads. The V710's memory clock is 2250 MHz (18 Gbps effective), while the RTX 5090 Mobile's memory clock is 1750 MHz (28 Gbps effective).

Rasterization rates reflect these differences. The V710 posts a pixel rate of 192.0 GPixel/s and a texture rate of 432.0 GTexel/s. The RTX 5090 Mobile posts 169.7 GPixel/s and 496.9 GTexel/s. The V710 leads in pixel throughput but trails in texture throughput. The RTX 5090 Mobile's higher texture rate aligns with its larger TMU count.

The Verdict

The data points to one clear conclusion: the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 Mobile is the faster GPU in every recorded head-to-head benchmark. The 85.5% lead in Steel Nomad DX12 and the 42.3% lead in Geekbench OpenCL are not marginal differences. They represent a generational gap in raw performance.

The Radeon PRO V710, however, holds advantages in specific areas. It offers 28 GB of memory versus the RTX 5090 Mobile's 24 GB. It has a higher pixel rate (192.0 GPixel/s versus 169.7 GPixel/s). Its power draw is higher at 158 W versus 95 W, but it is a single-slot card with a dedicated 8-pin power connector, whereas the RTX 5090 Mobile is an integrated graphics processor with no power connectors and portable-device-dependent display outputs.

The percentile data complicates the picture. The V710 ranks in the 88th percentile of all GPUs, above the RTX 5090 Mobile's 84th percentile. This is partly because the V710's benchmark set is limited to two tests, both of which it performs respectably in relative terms. The RTX 5090 Mobile's ten-test average includes several low Passmark scores that pull its average down. In the database's head-to-head comparisons, however, the RTX 5090 Mobile wins outright.

For workloads that demand maximum compute and ray tracing performance, the RTX 5090 Mobile is the clear choice based on the recorded data. For workloads that require higher memory capacity, the V710's 28 GB offers an edge. For users who need a desktop card with a single-slot form factor and a standard power connector, the V710 fits that profile. The RTX 5090 Mobile, as a mobile IGP, is designed for portable devices and requires no external power connector.

Specification Differences

The two GPUs differ across nearly every major specification category. The process node is identical (5 nm, TSMC), but the transistor counts and die sizes differ: the RTX 5090 Mobile has 45,600 million transistors on 378 mm², while the V710 has 28,100 million on 346 mm². Transistor density follows: 120.6M per mm² for NVIDIA versus 81.2M for AMD.

Clock speeds are reversed. The V710 runs at 1900 MHz base and 2000 MHz boost; the RTX 5090 Mobile runs at 990 MHz base and 1515 MHz boost. Memory type and width differ: GDDR6 on a 224-bit bus for the V710 versus GDDR7 on a 256-bit bus for the RTX 5090 Mobile. Memory capacity favors AMD at 28 GB versus 24 GB. Bandwidth favors NVIDIA at 896.0 GB/s versus 504.0 GB/s.

Compute unit counts all favor NVIDIA: shading units (10,496 versus 3,456), TMUs (328 versus 216), ROPs (112 versus 96), and ray tracing cores (82 versus 54). The RTX 5090 Mobile also lists 328 tensor cores, while the V710 has no tensor core count. FP32 throughput favors NVIDIA at 31.80 TFLOPS versus 27.65 TFLOPS.

Power and form factor differ sharply. The V710 draws 158 W, is single-slot, uses a single 8-pin power connector, and suggests a 450 W power supply. The RTX 5090 Mobile draws 95 W, is an IGP with no power connectors, and has no suggested PSU. The bus interface differs: PCIe 4.0 x16 for the V710 versus PCIe 5.0 x16 for the RTX 5090 Mobile. Display outputs also differ: the V710 has no outputs, while the RTX 5090 Mobile's outputs are portable-device-dependent.

Release dates differ by roughly six months. The V710 was released on 2024-10-02, and the RTX 5090 Mobile on 2025-03-26. Neither GPU has a recorded launch MSRP.

Where Each One Wins

The RTX 5090 Mobile wins in compute-heavy benchmarks. Its 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 5,871 versus 853 shows a massive advantage in modern DirectX 12 rendering. Its Geekbench OpenCL score of 201,834 versus 116,460 shows a strong lead in general-purpose compute. For anyone prioritizing raw GPU performance in gaming or compute tasks, the data favors NVIDIA.

The V710 wins in memory capacity. Its 28 GB frame buffer exceeds the RTX 5090 Mobile's 24 GB. For workloads that require large datasets or high-resolution textures, the extra memory could matter. The V710 also wins in pixel fill rate (192.0 GPixel/s versus 169.7 GPixel/s), which could benefit certain rasterization-heavy tasks.

The V710 wins on form factor for desktop integration. It is a single-slot card with a standard 8-pin connector and a 450 W suggested PSU, making it straightforward to install in a desktop system. The RTX 5090 Mobile is an IGP with no power connectors and display outputs that depend on the portable device, so it is not a drop-in desktop solution.

The RTX 5090 Mobile wins on power efficiency in terms of performance per watt. It achieves higher benchmark scores while drawing 95 W, compared to the V710's 158 W. The NVIDIA part also wins on memory bandwidth at 896.0 GB/s versus 504.0 GB/s, which supports its higher compute throughput.

The V710 wins in the database's overall percentile ranking (88th versus 84th), but this reflects its limited benchmark set rather than head-to-head superiority. In every direct comparison, the RTX 5090 Mobile is faster. The choice ultimately depends on whether the user prioritizes raw performance (NVIDIA) or memory capacity and desktop form factor (AMD).
