AMD Radeon PRO W7600 vs NVIDIA N1X 48SM Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The recorded data presents an unusual comparison. The AMD Radeon PRO W7600 has documented benchmark results, while the NVIDIA N1X 48SM has no recorded benchmark scores in the database. The AMD card achieves an average benchmark score of 87108, derived from its Geekbench OpenCL score of 81528 and Geekbench Vulkan score of 92688. The NVIDIA N1X 48SM shows an average score of 0, with no individual test results available. This means the head-to-head comparison rests entirely on the AMD card's measured performance and the NVIDIA part's absence of data.

The AMD Radeon PRO W7600 sits at the 93rd percentile among all GPUs in the database. Its nearest rivals include the NVIDIA Quadro GP100 with an average score of 87445, which is 0.4% ahead of the AMD card. The NVIDIA CMP 40HX scores 85637, placing it 1.7% behind the W7600. The NVIDIA RTX A4500 Mobile delivers 91134, which is 4.4% ahead, and the NVIDIA RTX A4500 reaches 91671, a 5% advantage. These comparisons show the W7600 performing within a narrow band around its closest competitors, with the RTX A4500 variants holding a modest edge.

For the NVIDIA N1X 48SM, the database lists it at the 50th percentile, but with no benchmark scores, its percentile placement reflects the absence of measurements rather than actual performance. The head-to-head benchmark section contains no direct test results between the two cards. The wins counter shows zero for both sides, confirming that no direct comparisons exist. The analysis must therefore rely on architectural specifications and the AMD card's measured standing relative to other GPUs.

Architecture Differences

The two cards come from fundamentally different design philosophies. The AMD Radeon PRO W7600 uses the Navi 33 chip 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 process node is 6 nm at TSMC, with 13,300 million transistors on a 204 mm² die, yielding a transistor density of 65.2M per mm².

The NVIDIA N1X 48SM employs the GB20B chip based on the Blackwell 2.0 architecture, part of the Blackwell IGP (N1x) generation. It uses a 5 nm process at TSMC, with a die size of 382 mm². Transistor count is listed as unknown, and transistor density data is absent. The node advantage belongs to NVIDIA with the smaller 5 nm process, while the die size is considerably larger at 382 mm² versus 204 mm² for the AMD chip.

Clock speeds show a different balance. The AMD card runs at a base clock of 1720 MHz and boosts to 2440 MHz. The NVIDIA part has a much lower base clock of 741 MHz but boosts to 2346 MHz, nearly matching the AMD boost. Memory clocks differ significantly: the AMD card uses 2250 MHz with 18 Gbps effective, while the NVIDIA part runs at 1067 MHz with 8.5 Gbps effective.

Memory configurations are starkly different. The AMD Radeon PRO W7600 has 8 GB of GDDR6 on a 128-bit bus, delivering 288.0 GB/s bandwidth. The NVIDIA N1X 48SM packs 128 GB of LPDDR5X on a 256-bit bus, offering 273.2 GB/s bandwidth. Despite having 16 times the memory capacity, the NVIDIA part has slightly lower bandwidth due to its slower memory clock.

Compute resources favor each card differently. The AMD card has 2048 shading units, 128 texture mapping units, and 64 raster output units. It includes 32 ray tracing cores but no tensor cores. The NVIDIA part has 6144 shading units, 384 TMUs, and only 48 ROPs. It includes 48 ray tracing cores and 192 tensor cores, giving it a substantial advantage in both ray tracing hardware and AI-related compute.

Theoretical throughput numbers illustrate the trade-offs. The AMD card delivers 156.2 GPixel/s pixel rate and 312.3 GTexel/s texture rate. The NVIDIA part has a lower pixel rate at 112.6 GPixel/s but a much higher texture rate at 900.9 GTexel/s. In FP32 compute, the NVIDIA part reaches 28.83 TFLOPS versus 19.99 TFLOPS for AMD, a 44% advantage. For FP16, AMD achieves 39.98 TFLOPS using a 2:1 ratio, while NVIDIA delivers 28.83 TFLOPS at 1:1, meaning AMD has higher peak FP16 throughput but NVIDIA's is symmetric with its FP32 rate.

Power and physical specifications diverge completely. The AMD card has a TDP of 130 W, uses a single-slot design with a 1x 6-pin power connector, and requires a 300 W suggested PSU. The NVIDIA part has an unknown TDP, is an IGP (integrated graphics processor), has no power connectors, and no suggested PSU. The bus interface differs: AMD uses PCIe 4.0 x8, while NVIDIA uses PCIe 5.0 x16. Display outputs also differ, with AMD offering 4x DisplayPort 2.1 and NVIDIA providing only 1x HDMI.

API support marks another significant gap. The AMD card supports DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4. The NVIDIA part lists N/A for DirectX, OpenGL, and Vulkan, suggesting it may rely on different software stacks given its IGP nature.

Where Each One Wins

The AMD Radeon PRO W7600 wins in several measurable areas. Its average benchmark score of 87108 places it above the NVIDIA CMP 40HX by 1.7%, and it trails the Quadro GP100 by only 0.4%. In Geekbench Vulkan, it scores 92688, which is higher than its OpenCL result of 81528, indicating strong Vulkan performance. The card's 93rd percentile ranking among all GPUs confirms solid placement in the broader performance landscape.

The AMD card also wins on memory bandwidth, delivering 288.0 GB/s versus 273.2 GB/s for the NVIDIA part. Its pixel rate is higher at 156.2 GPixel/s compared to 112.6 GPixel/s, giving it an edge in fill-rate-bound workloads. The FP16 throughput of 39.98 TFLOPS exceeds the NVIDIA part's 28.83 TFLOPS, which matters for applications using half-precision arithmetic. The AMD card offers multiple display outputs, with four DisplayPort 2.1 connections for multi-monitor setups.

The NVIDIA N1X 48SM wins in compute capacity. Its FP32 performance of 28.83 TFLOPS is considerably higher than the AMD card's 19.99 TFLOPS. Texture rate reaches 900.9 GTexel/s, nearly three times the AMD card's 312.3 GTexel/s. The NVIDIA part has 192 tensor cores, a feature entirely absent from the AMD card, making it suited for AI inference workloads. The 48 ray tracing cores exceed the AMD card's 32, providing more ray tracing hardware. Memory capacity at 128 GB is 16 times the AMD card's 8 GB, which matters for large dataset workloads. The NVIDIA part uses PCIe 5.0 x16, offering greater bus bandwidth than the AMD card's PCIe 4.0 x8.

The NVIDIA part also has the shading unit advantage with 6144 units versus 2048, and 384 TMUs versus 128. Its smaller 5 nm process node means a more modern manufacturing technology, though the die is larger. The Blackwell 2.0 architecture represents a newer design generation compared to RDNA 3.0.

The Verdict

The data does not support a direct performance comparison because the NVIDIA N1X 48SM has no benchmark scores recorded. The AMD Radeon PRO W7600 has measured results showing it performs competitively against the NVIDIA Quadro GP100 and CMP 40HX, while sitting slightly behind the RTX A4500 and RTX A4500 Mobile. Its average benchmark score of 87108 and 93rd percentile placement indicate a capable workstation GPU.

For users seeking a discrete workstation card with established performance metrics, the AMD Radeon PRO W7600 provides verifiable results. It offers 8 GB of GDDR6 memory, a 128-bit bus, 288.0 GB/s bandwidth, and 19.99 TFLOPS of FP32 compute. Its 130 W TDP and single-slot design make it suitable for compact systems, with four DisplayPort 2.1 outputs supporting multi-display configurations. The card launched at 599 USD MSRP.

For users considering the NVIDIA N1X 48SM, its appeal lies in specifications rather than measured performance. The 128 GB memory capacity, 192 tensor cores, and 28.83 TFLOPS of FP32 compute present a compelling theoretical package. Its IGP form factor with no power connectors and no TDP rating suggests integration into a larger system rather than standalone use. The 5 nm process and Blackwell 2.0 architecture indicate a modern design, but the absence of benchmark data and API support listings creates uncertainty about real-world capability.

The choice depends on data availability and workload requirements. The AMD card offers proven performance with documented results. The NVIDIA part offers higher raw specifications but lacks verification. The database records zero wins for either card in head-to-head tests, reflecting the absence of direct measurements.
