Analysis: AMD Radeon PRO W7700 vs NVIDIA N1 20SM

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The AMD Radeon PRO W7700 and NVIDIA N1 20SM occupy very different positions in the benchmark database. The W7700 has recorded benchmark scores, while the N1 20SM has no benchmark entries, resulting in an average benchmark score of zero for the NVIDIA part. This places the W7700 at the 95th percentile among all GPUs, while the N1 20SM sits at the 50th percentile.

The W7700 delivers 108,245 in Geekbench OpenCL and 129,706 in Geekbench Vulkan tests. The average benchmark score across these two tests reaches 118,976. With no recorded scores for the N1 20SM, the direct head-to-head comparison relies on the W7700's established performance data against other NVIDIA parts in the database.

The W7700's closest rivals include the NVIDIA GB10, which scores 117,393 on average, putting the AMD part 1.3 percent ahead. The NVIDIA RTX 4000 SFF Ada Generation follows at 117,088, placing the W7700 1.6 percent ahead. The NVIDIA Tesla V100 SXM2 16 GB records 114,395, a 4 percent gap. The NVIDIA RTX A5500 Mobile reaches 113,944, with the W7700 leading by 4.4 percent. These deltas show the W7700 holding a consistent advantage across its nearest competitors, though the margins are modest for the two closest rivals.

The absence of benchmark data for the N1 20SM means the database cannot compute any head-to-head wins for either product. The W7700 has two recorded benchmark entries, both producing scores, while the N1 20SM has zero entries. This structural difference in available data shapes the entire comparison: the W7700 is a measured, verified performer, while the N1 20SM remains unquantified in the database's current records.

Where Each One Wins

The AMD Radeon PRO W7700 wins in every measurable category because it is the only product in this pairing with recorded benchmark results. Its Geekbench OpenCL score of 108,245 and Vulkan score of 129,706 confirm functional compute and graphics capabilities. The average benchmark score of 118,976 places it above all four nearest rivals listed in the database.

The NVIDIA N1 20SM wins no benchmark comparisons because no scores exist for it. The database shows zero wins for the NVIDIA part and zero wins for the AMD part in the head-to-head section, reflecting the empty benchmark array. The N1 20SM's percentile ranking of 50 indicates a mid-tier position, but without measurement data, no performance conclusions can be drawn.

For compute workloads, the W7700's OpenCL result demonstrates substantial throughput. For graphics workloads, the Vulkan score shows even stronger performance, exceeding the OpenCL figure by 21,461 points. This pattern suggests the W7700 handles graphics-oriented tasks particularly well relative to its own compute output.

The N1 20SM, as an integrated graphics processor with no benchmark entries, cannot claim wins in any category. Its specifications indicate a different design intent, but the database contains no performance evidence to support use-case recommendations.

Specification Differences

The W7700 uses 16 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 256-bit bus, delivering 576.0 GB/s of bandwidth. The N1 20SM uses 128 GB of LPDDR5X memory, also on a 256-bit bus, but delivers only 273.2 GB/s of bandwidth. The memory clock differs substantially: the W7700 runs at 2250 MHz with 18 Gbps effective speed, while the N1 20SM runs at 1067 MHz with 8.5 Gbps effective speed.

The W7700 has 3072 shading units, 192 texture mapping units, and 96 render output units. The N1 20SM has 2560 shading units, 160 texture mapping units, and only 24 render output units. The W7700 includes 48 ray tracing cores, while the N1 20SM has 20 ray tracing cores. The N1 20SM adds 80 tensor cores, a feature the W7700 does not list.

The W7700 reaches 249.6 GPixel/s in pixel rate and 499.2 GTexel/s in texture rate. The N1 20SM achieves 56.30 GPixel/s and 375.4 GTexel/s respectively. FP16 performance also differs: the W7700 reaches 63.90 TFLOPS with a 2:1 ratio, while the N1 20SM stays at 12.01 TFLOPS with a 1:1 ratio.

The W7700 has a base clock of 1900 MHz and a boost clock of 2600 MHz. The N1 20SM has a base clock of 741 MHz and a boost clock of 2346 MHz. The W7700 draws 190 W with a suggested power supply of 450 W and a single 8-pin connector. The N1 20SM has no listed TDP, no power connectors, and no suggested power supply rating.

The W7700 offers four DisplayPort 2.1 outputs, while the N1 20SM offers a single HDMI output. The W7700 uses PCIe 4.0 x16, while the N1 20SM uses PCIe 5.0 x16.

Architecture Differences

The AMD Radeon PRO W7700 is built on the Navi 32 chip using RDNA 3.0 architecture, with the codename Wheat Nas. It belongs to the Radeon Pro Navi generation, specifically the Navi III Series. The NVIDIA N1 20SM uses the GB20B chip with Blackwell 2.0 architecture and belongs to the Blackwell IGP generation under the N1x series.

Both products are manufactured on a 5 nm process at TSMC. The W7700 uses 28,100 million transistors on a 346 mm² die, achieving a transistor density of 81.2 million per square millimeter. The N1 20SM's transistor count is listed as unknown, though its die size is 382 mm², which is larger than the W7700's die.

The W7700 supports DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4. The N1 20SM lists N/A for DirectX, OpenGL, and Vulkan, indicating the database records no API support for this integrated processor. This difference reflects the distinct positioning: the W7700 is a discrete workstation graphics card with full API coverage, while the N1 20SM appears oriented toward a different deployment scenario.

The W7700 was released on November 12, 2023, with a launch MSRP of 999 USD. The N1 20SM has a release date of May 31, 2026, and no launch MSRP listed. The N1 20SM's production status is marked active, while the W7700's production status is not specified. The W7700's predecessor is listed as the Radeon Pro Vega, while the N1 20SM has no listed predecessor or successor.

The W7700 is a dual-slot card with a 241 mm length and 111 mm height. The N1 20SM is an IGP with no dimensions recorded. The W7700's power delivery requires an external 8-pin connector and a 450 W power supply recommendation, while the N1 20SM needs no external power connectors. These physical and power characteristics define the W7700 as a conventional discrete GPU and the N1 20SM as an integrated solution.
