AMD Radeon PRO W7600 vs NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 SUPER Comparison

The Verdict

The recorded data presents two very different products with almost no direct overlap in measured performance. The AMD Radeon PRO W7600 shows an average benchmark score of 87,108 across Geekbench OpenCL (81,528) and Vulkan (92,688) tests, placing it in the 93rd percentile of all GPUs in the database. Its nearest rivals include the NVIDIA RTX A4500 at 91,671 (5% higher), the NVIDIA RTX A4500 Mobile at 91,134 (4.4% higher), the NVIDIA Quadro GP100 at 87,445 (0.4% lower), and the NVIDIA CMP 40HX at 85,637 (1.7% higher). The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 SUPER, in contrast, has a single recorded 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 2,690, which places it in only the 18th percentile. Its nearest rivals are all low-end parts: the NVIDIA Quadro K1100M at 2,664 (1% lower), the GeForce GT 1030 at 2,662 (1.1% lower), the Intel Arc Pro B50 at 2,660 (1.1% lower), and the GeForce GT 440 at 2,645 (1.7% lower). These two percentile rankings are so far apart that the data cannot support a direct performance comparison between them. The W7600 belongs in a workstation-class performance tier, while the RTX 5070 SUPER appears in the database with results consistent with entry-level parts. Anyone selecting between these two based on the current measurements would choose the AMD card for compute workloads, but the RTX 5070 SUPER has only one test result recorded, so its position may change as more data is added.

Where Each One Wins

The AMD Radeon PRO W7600 wins in every recorded benchmark category. Its Geekbench OpenCL score of 81,528 and Vulkan score of 92,688 show consistent strength across both compute APIs. The Vulkan result is 13.7% higher than its own OpenCL result, indicating that the architecture handles Vulkan compute particularly well. The RTX 5070 SUPER has no Geekbench entries in the database, so no cross-API comparison is possible. Its only recorded result is the 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 test at 2,690, which is a DirectX 12 workload. The W7600 has no 3DMark Steel Nomad entry, so even the single test that exists for the RTX 5070 SUPER cannot be compared directly. The data shows the W7600 winning on sheer breadth of validated workloads: it has two independent benchmark results from two different APIs, both placing it near the top of the database. The RTX 5070 SUPER has one result from one test, and that result places it near the bottom. For users running OpenCL or Vulkan applications, the W7600 is the only card with recorded evidence of capability. For users running the specific 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 test, the RTX 5070 SUPER has a recorded score, but the W7600 has none in that test.

Architecture Differences

The two GPUs come from different design generations and process nodes. The AMD Radeon PRO W7600 uses the Navi 33 chip built on RDNA 3.0 architecture, codenamed Hotpink Bonefish, fabricated by TSMC on a 6 nm process. It contains 13,300 million transistors on a 204 mm² die, giving a transistor density of 65.2 million per mm². The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 SUPER uses the GB205 chip on Blackwell 2.0 architecture, also fabricated by TSMC but on a 5 nm process. It packs 31,100 million transistors onto a 263 mm² die, reaching 118.3 million transistors per mm². The density difference is substantial: the RTX 5070 SUPER fits 81.4% more transistors per square millimeter than the W7600. The RTX 5070 SUPER has 6,400 shading units, 200 texture mapping units, and 80 raster output units, compared to the W7600's 2,048 shading units, 128 TMUs, and 64 ROPs. Ray tracing hardware differs as well: the W7600 has 32 ray tracing cores, while the RTX 5070 SUPER has 50. The RTX 5070 SUPER additionally includes 200 tensor cores, a feature class the W7600 does not list. Memory architecture diverges sharply. The W7600 uses 8 GB of GDDR6 on a 128-bit bus with 288.0 GB/s bandwidth. The RTX 5070 SUPER uses 18 GB of GDDR7 on a 192-bit bus with 672.0 GB/s bandwidth, more than double the bandwidth and more than double the capacity. Clock behavior also differs: the W7600 has a base clock of 1720 MHz and boost of 2440 MHz, while the RTX 5070 SUPER runs a base of 2325 MHz and boost of 2512 MHz. The RTX 5070 SUPER's memory runs at 1750 MHz with 28 Gbps effective transfer, while the W7600's memory runs at 2250 MHz with 18 Gbps effective. The W7600 supports FP16 at 39.98 TFLOPS with a 2:1 ratio, while the RTX 5070 SUPER delivers 32.15 TFLOPS FP16 at a 1:1 ratio. FP32 performance favors the RTX 5070 SUPER at 32.15 TFLOPS versus 19.99 TFLOPS for the W7600, a 60.8% advantage. Pixel rate favors the RTX 5070 SUPER at 201.0 GPixel/s versus 156.2 GPixel/s, and texture rate favors it at 502.4 GTexel/s versus 312.3 GTexel/s.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The database contains no direct head-to-head benchmark entries between these two GPUs, so the comparison must rely on their individual recorded results. The W7600's Geekbench OpenCL score of 81,528 is its lower of the two results. The RTX 5070 SUPER's only score, 2,690 in 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12, is in a different test entirely. The W7600's Vulkan score of 92,688 is its strongest recorded result. The RTX 5070 SUPER's nearest rival, the Quadro K1100M, scores 2,664, which is 1% lower. The W7600's nearest rival, the RTX A4500, scores 91,671, which is 5% higher than the W7600. The W7600 sits 0.4% above the Quadro GP100 and 1.7% above the CMP 40HX. The RTX 5070 SUPER sits 1.1% above the GeForce GT 1030 and the Intel Arc Pro B50, and 1.7% above the GeForce GT 440. The gap between the two cards' average scores is enormous, but because the tests differ, the data cannot attribute that gap to raw performance differences alone. The W7600's 93rd percentile placement indicates that its scores are higher than 93% of all GPUs in the database. The RTX 5070 SUPER's 18th percentile placement indicates that its score is higher than only 18%. The compute rates tell a different story from the benchmark percentiles. The RTX 5070 SUPER has higher theoretical FP32 throughput at 32.15 TFLOPS versus 19.99 TFLOPS, higher pixel rate at 201.0 GPixel/s versus 156.2 GPixel/s, and higher texture rate at 502.4 GTexel/s versus 312.3 GTexel/s. Yet the only recorded benchmark for the RTX 5070 SUPER places it among entry-level parts. This discrepancy suggests the recorded 3DMark Steel Nomad score may not reflect the card's theoretical capabilities, or that the database has incomplete data for this GPU. The W7600's benchmark scores align with its specifications and its nearest rivals are all professional or high-end parts.
