Specification Differences

The two products differ across nearly every specification category. The AMD Radeon PRO W7600 uses a Navi 33 chip fabricated on a 6 nm process at TSMC, while the NVIDIA N1X 40SM uses a GB20B chip on a 5 nm process at the same foundry. The AMD die size is 204 mm², while the NVIDIA die size is 382 mm². The AMD chip contains 13,300 million transistors, whereas the NVIDIA chip's transistor count is unknown.

Clock speeds differ substantially. The AMD card has a base clock of 1720 MHz and a boost clock of 2440 MHz. The NVIDIA part has a base clock of 741 MHz and a boost clock of 2346 MHz. Memory clocks also differ: the AMD card runs at 2250 MHz with 18 Gbps effective, while the NVIDIA part runs at 1067 MHz with 8.5 Gbps effective.

Memory configuration shows the largest gap. The AMD card has 8 GB of GDDR6 on a 128-bit bus, yielding 288.0 GB/s bandwidth. The NVIDIA part has 128 GB of LPDDR5X on a 256-bit bus, yielding 273.2 GB/s bandwidth. The AMD card's higher effective memory speed partially compensates for its narrower bus.

Compute unit counts differ significantly. The AMD card has 2048 shading units, 128 TMUs, 64 ROPs, and 32 ray tracing cores. The NVIDIA part has 5120 shading units, 320 TMUs, 40 ROPs, 40 ray tracing cores, and 160 tensor cores. The NVIDIA part has more shading units, TMUs, and ray tracing cores, but fewer ROPs.

Power and physical specifications differ completely. The AMD card has a TDP of 130 W, requires a 1x 6-pin power connector, and a suggested PSU of 300 W. It is a single-slot card with dimensions of 241 mm length and 115 mm height. The NVIDIA part has an unknown TDP, no power connectors, and is classified as an IGP with no dimensions listed.

Interface and output differences are notable. The AMD card uses PCIe 4.0 x8 and has 4x DisplayPort 2.1 outputs. The NVIDIA part uses PCIe 5.0 x16 and has 1x HDMI output. The AMD card's API support includes DirectX 12 Ultimate, OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4, while the NVIDIA part lists N/A for all three.

Architecture Differences

The AMD Radeon PRO W7600 is built on the RDNA 3.0 architecture, with the codename Hotpink Bonefish. It belongs to the Radeon Pro Navi generation, specifically the Navi III Series. The NVIDIA N1X 40SM is built on the Blackwell 2.0 architecture and belongs to the Blackwell IGP (N1x) generation, using the GB20B chip.

The process nodes differ: AMD uses a 6 nm process, while NVIDIA uses a 5 nm process, both at TSMC. The transistor density for the AMD chip is 65.2M per mm², while the NVIDIA chip has no recorded density figure. The NVIDIA die is nearly twice the size of the AMD die, at 382 mm² versus 204 mm².

The FP16 compute ratio differs between the two architectures. The AMD card achieves 39.98 TFLOPS FP16, which is a 2:1 ratio relative to its FP32 throughput. The NVIDIA part achieves 24.02 TFLOPS FP16, which is a 1:1 ratio with its FP32 throughput. This indicates that the AMD architecture has a dedicated FP16 path, while the NVIDIA architecture processes FP16 and FP32 at the same rate.

The NVIDIA part includes 160 tensor cores, which are absent from the AMD card's specification list. This suggests the NVIDIA architecture has dedicated hardware for tensor operations, while the AMD card does not list such units. The AMD card has 32 ray tracing cores, and the NVIDIA part has 40, indicating a higher ray tracing unit count on the NVIDIA side.

The display output architecture differs as well. The AMD card supports four DisplayPort 2.1 outputs, consistent with a discrete workstation card. The NVIDIA part has a single HDMI output, consistent with its IGP classification. The API support also reflects their different positioning: the AMD card supports modern graphics APIs, while the NVIDIA part lists N/A for DirectX, OpenGL, and Vulkan.

The Verdict

The data shows two products with fundamentally different roles. The AMD Radeon PRO W7600 is a fully specified discrete workstation card with measured performance, broad API support, and multiple display outputs. Its average benchmark score of 87108 and 93rd percentile ranking demonstrate that it delivers competitive performance, sitting close to the NVIDIA RTX A4500 class of products. The NVIDIA N1X 40SM, by contrast, has no recorded benchmark scores, no API support, and is classified as an IGP.

For users who require measured performance data, the AMD Radeon PRO W7600 is the only option with verified results. Its Geekbench Vulkan score of 92688 and OpenCL score of 81528 provide concrete evidence of its capabilities. The card also offers higher pixel rate (156.2 GPixel/s versus 93.84 GPixel/s) and higher memory bandwidth (288.0 GB/s versus 273.2 GB/s).

For workloads that demand massive memory capacity, the NVIDIA N1X 40SM presents a compelling theoretical advantage with 128 GB of LPDDR5X memory. This is 16 times the capacity of the AMD card. The NVIDIA part also offers higher theoretical FP32 throughput (24.02 TFLOPS versus 19.99 TFLOPS), more shading units (5120 versus 2048), and a larger texture rate (750.7 GTexel/s versus 312.3 GTexel/s). The presence of 160 tensor cores also gives the NVIDIA part a hardware feature that the AMD card lacks entirely.

The choice between these two products depends on whether verified performance or raw specifications matter more. The AMD card delivers proven results across multiple benchmarks, with full API support and flexible display connectivity. The NVIDIA part offers unverified theoretical superiority in compute throughput and memory capacity, but it cannot be validated against any recorded performance data. The AMD card also has a launch MSRP of 599 USD, while the NVIDIA part has no recorded launch price.

For workstation use cases where software compatibility, driver maturity, and measured performance are critical, the AMD Radeon PRO W7600 is the data-backed choice. For speculative or research-oriented workloads that prioritize memory capacity and theoretical compute, the NVIDIA N1X 40SM may have appeal, but its lack of recorded benchmarks and API support leaves significant uncertainty. The database currently provides no evidence that the NVIDIA part can translate its specifications into real-world performance.
