AMD Radeon PRO W7500 vs AMD Radeon RX 7650 GRE Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The recorded data shows a single shared benchmark between these two AMD RDNA 3.0 cards: Geekbench OpenCL. In that test, the AMD Radeon RX 7650 GRE scores 83,109, which is 30% higher than the AMD Radeon PRO W7500's 58,213. That is the only direct comparison available in the database, and the margin is substantial.

The RX 7650 GRE's average benchmark score across all recorded tests is 42,723, while the PRO W7500's average is 16,415. That difference is not a direct head-to-head result, but it reflects the overall performance tier separation. The RX 7650 GRE sits at the 83rd percentile among all GPUs, whereas the PRO W7500 sits at the 59th percentile.

Looking at the PRO W7500's nearest rivals, its average score of 16,415 places it within 0.5% of the NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell (16,408), 0.3% ahead of the AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT (16,361), and 0.4% ahead of the AMD Radeon Pro 5600M (16,351). The data shows the PRO W7500 is effectively tied with those cards on average, despite being a professional workstation product.

The RX 7650 GRE's nearest rivals tell a different story. Its average score of 42,723 is 1.2% behind the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER (43,223) and 1.2% behind the NVIDIA Quadro M6000 24 GB (43,262). The RX 7650 GRE is also 1.3% behind both the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050 Mobile (43,268) and the NVIDIA Quadro M6000 (43,301). These deltas are small, indicating the RX 7650 GRE competes directly with upper-midrange cards from the previous generation.

The Geekbench Vulkan result for the PRO W7500 is 68,634, which is not directly comparable to anything in the RX 7650 GRE's recorded data. The RX 7650 GRE has a 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 2,336, which also has no counterpart in the PRO W7500's benchmark list. The database contains no overlapping Vulkan or DX12 results that would allow a direct comparison on those APIs.

PassMark scores for the PRO W7500 show a mixed profile: 65 in DirectX 10, 125 in DirectX 11, 46 in DirectX 12, 200 in DirectX 9, 1,174 in G2D, 13,368 in G3D, and 5,910 in GPU Compute. The RX 7650 GRE has no PassMark entries in the database, so those numbers cannot be compared directly.

Where Each One Wins

The RX 7650 GRE wins the only shared benchmark, and it does so decisively. The 30% lead in Geekbench OpenCL translates to a raw score gap of 24,896 points. That is the largest measurable advantage in this comparison, and it aligns with the silicon-level differences between the two cards.

The PRO W7500 has no recorded benchmark wins against the RX 7650 GRE. The database shows zero wins for the PRO W7500 and one win for the RX 7650 GRE. That is the entirety of the head-to-head record.

Where the PRO W7500 does distinguish itself is in its professional feature set and power characteristics, but those are not benchmark wins. The data shows the PRO W7500 has a 70 W TDP, no power connectors, and a single-slot design. The RX 7650 GRE has a 170 W TDP, a single 8-pin connector, and a dual-slot design. Those differences matter for workstation deployments, but they do not show up in the benchmark scores.

The RX 7650 GRE's compute advantage is clear from the FP32 figures. It delivers 22.08 TFLOPS versus the PRO W7500's 12.19 TFLOPS. The texture rate also favors the RX 7650 GRE at 345.0 GTexel/s versus 190.4 GTexel/s. The pixel rate is 172.5 GPixel/s versus 108.8 GPixel/s. These are specification differences, not benchmark results, but they explain the benchmark gap.

For workloads that rely on OpenCL compute, the RX 7650 GRE is the clear choice based on the recorded data. The PRO W7500's only advantage in the benchmark record is that it has more recorded test types: nine benchmark entries versus two for the RX 7650 GRE. That is a data coverage difference, not a performance advantage.

The Verdict

The data points to the AMD Radeon RX 7650 GRE as the faster card in every measurable way. The 30% OpenCL lead is substantial, and the average benchmark score difference (42,723 versus 16,415) reinforces that conclusion. The RX 7650 GRE also sits in the 83rd percentile versus the PRO W7500's 59th percentile, a 24-percentile gap that indicates a much higher standing in the overall GPU landscape.

The PRO W7500's case rests on its workstation-oriented characteristics, not its benchmark performance. It uses 70 W versus 170 W, needs no power connectors versus a single 8-pin, and fits in a single slot versus dual-slot. Those are real operational differences for someone building a dense workstation or a low-power system. The PRO W7500 also supports 4x DisplayPort 2.1 outputs, while the RX 7650 GRE has 1x HDMI 2.1a and 3x DisplayPort 2.1.

The launch MSRP for the PRO W7500 is 429 USD. The launch MSRP for the RX 7650 GRE is 279 USD. The database records both figures, and they differ by 150 USD.

For users who prioritize raw compute performance, the RX 7650 GRE is the only choice supported by the benchmark data. For users who prioritize power efficiency, single-slot footprint, or multi-display professional output, the PRO W7500 has the specification advantage, but it is slower in the one benchmark where both cards have recorded scores.

The verdict is straightforward: the RX 7650 GRE wins on performance, the PRO W7500 wins on power and form factor. The benchmark data does not support any other conclusion.
