Architecture Differences

The two cards come from different architectural generations and process nodes. The NVIDIA TITAN X Pascal uses the GP102 chip, built on the Pascal architecture, fabricated by TSMC on a 16 nm process. It contains 11,800 million transistors on a 471 mm² die, resulting in a transistor density of 25.1M per mm². The AMD Radeon PRO V710 uses the Navi 32 chip, built on the RDNA 3.0 architecture, also fabricated by TSMC but on a 5 nm process. It packs 28,100 million transistors into a smaller 346 mm² die, achieving a much higher density of 81.2M per mm². This represents a major generational leap in manufacturing efficiency.

The memory subsystems differ significantly. The TITAN X Pascal features 12 GB of GDDR5X memory on a 384-bit bus, delivering 480.4 GB/s of bandwidth. The Radeon PRO V710 offers 28 GB of GDDR6 memory on a narrower 224-bit bus, yet achieves higher bandwidth at 504.0 GB/s thanks to faster memory clocks. The TITAN X Pascal runs its memory at 1251 MHz with 10 Gbps effective speed, while the Radeon PRO V710 runs at 2250 MHz with 18 Gbps effective speed. The Radeon PRO V710 provides more than twice the capacity with slightly higher bandwidth, making it better suited for large datasets.

Compute resources show a different balance. The TITAN X Pascal has 3584 shading units, 224 texture mapping units, and 96 render output units. The Radeon PRO V710 has 3456 shading units, 216 TMUs, and 96 ROPs. The counts are close, but the clock speeds differ dramatically. The TITAN X Pascal runs at a base clock of 1417 MHz and a boost of 1531 MHz. The Radeon PRO V710 runs at 1900 MHz base and 2000 MHz boost. This clock advantage, combined with the newer architecture, explains the massive difference in floating-point performance. The TITAN X Pascal delivers 10.97 TFLOPS FP32 and only 171.5 GFLOPS FP16 (at a 1:64 ratio). The Radeon PRO V710 delivers 27.65 TFLOPS FP32 and 27.65 TFLOPS FP16 (at a 1:1 ratio), meaning it has full-rate half-precision compute, a critical feature for AI and machine learning workloads.

The Radeon PRO V710 also includes 54 ray tracing cores, a feature entirely absent from the TITAN X Pascal. The TITAN X Pascal has no RT cores and no tensor cores. The pixel and texture rates reflect the clock differences: the TITAN X Pascal achieves 147.0 GPixel/s and 342.9 GTexel/s, while the Radeon PRO V710 achieves 192.0 GPixel/s and 432.0 GTexel/s. The Radeon PRO V710 is ahead in every throughput metric.

Power and physical characteristics also diverge sharply. The TITAN X Pascal has a TDP of 250 W, requires a 600 W recommended PSU, uses a dual-slot cooler, and needs both a 6-pin and an 8-pin power connector. The Radeon PRO V710 has a TDP of only 158 W, requires a 450 W PSU, uses a single-slot cooler, and needs only one 8-pin connector. The Radeon PRO V710 is more power-efficient and physically smaller, though its dimensions are not recorded in the database. The TITAN X Pascal measures 267 mm in length, 112 mm in height, and 40 mm in width. The bus interface differs as well: the TITAN X Pascal uses PCIe 3.0 x16, while the Radeon PRO V710 uses PCIe 4.0 x16, doubling the available bandwidth to the host system. Display outputs also differ, with the TITAN X Pascal offering 1x DVI, 1x HDMI 2.0, and 3x DisplayPort 1.4a, while the Radeon PRO V710 has no display outputs at all, indicating it is intended for compute-only deployment.

Where Each One Wins

The data points to clear use-case separation. The AMD Radeon PRO V710 wins in OpenCL compute, posting a 42.7% higher score than the TITAN X Pascal in the head-to-head Geekbench OpenCL test. This makes it the stronger choice for workloads that rely on general-purpose GPU compute, such as scientific simulation, data processing, and any application that leverages OpenCL for acceleration. Its FP16 throughput, which matches its FP32 throughput at 27.65 TFLOPS, gives it a particular advantage in machine learning inference and training tasks that use half-precision arithmetic. The 28 GB of memory capacity is another clear win for the Radeon PRO V710, allowing larger models and datasets to reside on the GPU without spilling to system memory.

The NVIDIA TITAN X Pascal wins in overall average benchmark score, with 72098 versus 58657 for the Radeon PRO V710. This indicates the TITAN X Pascal performs better across a broader mix of standard GPU benchmarks, particularly in Vulkan where it scores 77499. For gaming workloads or general graphics rendering that leverages Vulkan, the TITAN X Pascal is the stronger performer. Its 12 GB of GDDR5X memory is sufficient for most gaming and rendering tasks, and its 384-bit bus provides a wide path for data movement. The TITAN X Pascal also holds a higher percentile ranking at 91 versus 88 for the Radeon PRO V710, suggesting it sits closer to the top of the overall GPU performance distribution.

The Radeon PRO V710's ray tracing cores give it a feature advantage for any workload that uses DirectX 12 Ultimate features, as it supports DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2) while the TITAN X Pascal only supports DirectX 12 (12_1). This makes the AMD card future-proof for ray-traced applications, though no benchmark data exists in the database to quantify this advantage. The Radeon PRO V710 also has a much lower TDP at 158 W versus 250 W, making it a better fit for dense server environments or multi-GPU configurations where power and cooling are constrained. Its single-slot design further supports high-density deployments.

The Verdict

The data supports a clear verdict based on workload type. For compute-heavy professional tasks, particularly those using OpenCL or FP16 arithmetic, the AMD Radeon PRO V710 is the superior choice. Its 42.7% lead in the head-to-head OpenCL test is decisive, and its 28 GB memory capacity, full-rate FP16, and ray tracing support make it a modern compute accelerator. The lower power draw of 158 W and single-slot design are additional advantages for professional environments.

For general graphics performance and Vulkan-based workloads, the NVIDIA TITAN X Pascal is the better pick. Its average benchmark score of 72098 exceeds the Radeon PRO V710's 58657 by a substantial margin, and its Vulkan score of 77499 shows strong graphics compute capability. The TITAN X Pascal also has display outputs, making it usable in workstations that need to drive monitors directly. The Radeon PRO V710 has no display outputs, so it requires a separate graphics solution for any visual output.

The choice comes down to whether the user prioritizes raw compute throughput or general benchmark performance. The Radeon PRO V710 is a specialized compute accelerator with superior OpenCL performance and memory capacity. The TITAN X Pascal is a more well-rounded card with higher average scores and better Vulkan performance, but it lacks modern features like ray tracing and full-rate FP16. The TITAN X Pascal is end-of-life, while the Radeon PRO V710 was released later and is a current professional product. The TITAN X Pascal had a launch MSRP of 1,199 USD.
