Architecture Differences

The AMD Radeon PRO W7800 is built on the Navi 31 chip using the RDNA 3.0 architecture with the codename Plum Bonito. It belongs to the Radeon Pro Navi generation, which is part of the Navi III Series. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti SUPER is built on the GB203 chip using the Blackwell 2.0 architecture and belongs to the GeForce 50 generation.

Both cards are manufactured by TSMC on a 5 nm process node. The AMD card has a larger die at 529 mm² and more transistors at 57,700 million, but the NVIDIA card has a higher transistor density at 120.6M per mm² versus 109.1M per mm². This indicates the NVIDIA card packs its transistors more tightly into its smaller 378 mm² die.

The compute architectures differ substantially. The AMD card has 4,480 shading units, 280 texture mapping units, and 128 ROPs, while the NVIDIA card has 8,960 shading units, 280 TMUs, and only 96 ROPs. Both cards have 70 RT cores, but the NVIDIA card adds 280 tensor cores, which the AMD card does not have. This tensor core presence suggests the NVIDIA card is built with AI acceleration in mind, while the AMD card focuses on raw rasterization and compute throughput.

The FP16 performance difference is particularly telling. The AMD card achieves 90.50 TFLOPS FP16 using a 2:1 ratio relative to its FP32 output of 45.25 TFLOPS, while the NVIDIA card achieves only 43.94 TFLOPS FP16 with a 1:1 ratio against its 43.94 TFLOPS FP32. This means the AMD card can double its throughput for half-precision workloads, a characteristic often associated with professional compute tasks, while the NVIDIA card treats FP16 and FP32 equally.

Specification Differences

The memory subsystems differ in capacity and type. The AMD Radeon PRO W7800 offers 32 GB of GDDR6 memory, while the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti SUPER offers 16 GB of GDDR7 memory. Both use a 256-bit bus, but the NVIDIA card achieves 896.0 GB/s bandwidth versus 576.0 GB/s for the AMD card, thanks to the faster 28 Gbps effective GDDR7 speed versus 18 Gbps effective GDDR6.

Clock speeds also differ. The NVIDIA card has a higher base clock at 2,295 MHz versus 1,895 MHz, but the AMD card has a higher boost clock at 2,525 MHz versus 2,452 MHz. The AMD card's memory clock is recorded at 2,250 MHz with 18 Gbps effective, while the NVIDIA card's memory clock is 1,750 MHz with 28 Gbps effective.

The power profiles are distinct. The AMD card draws 260 W TDP, while the NVIDIA card draws 350 W TDP. The AMD card uses 2x 8-pin power connectors and suggests a 600 W PSU, while the NVIDIA card uses a single 16-pin connector with no suggested PSU recorded.

The bus interfaces differ by generation: the AMD card uses PCIe 4.0 x16, while the NVIDIA card uses PCIe 5.0 x16. Display outputs also differ: the AMD card provides 3x DisplayPort 2.1 and 1x mini-DisplayPort 2.1, while the NVIDIA card provides 1x HDMI 2.1b and 3x DisplayPort 2.1b.

Physical dimensions vary. The AMD card measures 280 mm in length, 110 mm in height, and 40 mm in width. The NVIDIA card is longer and taller at 304 mm length and 137 mm height, with a slightly greater width of 48 mm. Both are dual-slot cards.

The launch MSRP for the AMD Radeon PRO W7800 is 2,499 USD. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti SUPER has a launch MSRP of 749 USD.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The database does not contain any direct head-to-head benchmark results between these two cards. The winsA and winsB fields are both zero, and the headToHeadBenchmarks array is empty. This absence of overlapping tests means a conventional comparison using identical workloads is not possible from the recorded data.

However, the available benchmarks can be examined individually. The AMD Radeon PRO W7800 achieves a Geekbench OpenCL score of 154,366 and a Geekbench Vulkan score of 175,422, giving it an average benchmark score of 164,894. Its nearest rival, the NVIDIA RTX A5500, scores 165,217, which is only 0.2% higher. The NVIDIA RTX 4500 Ada Generation scores 166,094, 0.7% higher. The AMD Radeon Pro W6900X scores 168,574, 2.2% higher. These deltas are all small, indicating the AMD card sits within a narrow performance band relative to its closest competitors in the database.

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti SUPER has a single recorded benchmark: a 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 6,269.5. Its average benchmark score is 6,270. Its nearest rival, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER AD102, scores exactly 6,270, a 0.0% delta. The NVIDIA Quadro K620 scores 6,282, which is 0.2% higher, and the AMD FirePro W600 scores 6,223, which is 0.8% lower.

The percentile data reinforces the separation. The AMD card's 97th percentile places it among the highest-performing GPUs in the entire database, while the NVIDIA card's 36th percentile places it well below the median. This discrepancy is likely explained by the different benchmark types: Geekbench OpenCL and Vulkan tests for the AMD card versus a single 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 test for the NVIDIA card. The database does not record results from the same test for both cards, so cross-card percentile comparisons should be interpreted with caution.

Where Each One Wins

Based on the recorded specifications and benchmark data, the AMD Radeon PRO W7800 wins in several measurable categories. It has double the memory capacity at 32 GB versus 16 GB, which is advantageous for large datasets that exceed the NVIDIA card's capacity. It also has a higher pixel rate at 323.2 GPixel/s versus 235.4 GPixel/s, a higher texture rate at 707.0 GTexel/s versus 686.6 GTexel/s, and higher FP32 throughput at 45.25 TFLOPS versus 43.94 TFLOPS. Its FP16 output of 90.50 TFLOPS is more than double the NVIDIA card's 43.94 TFLOPS. The AMD card also has more ROPs at 128 versus 96, and it carries a higher transistor count of 57,700 million versus 45,600 million.

The AMD card's benchmark percentile of 97% versus the NVIDIA card's 36% suggests that, within the database's recorded tests, the AMD card outperforms a much larger fraction of all GPUs. Its nearest rivals are professional workstation cards, and the deltas are minimal, indicating strong placement in that segment.

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti SUPER wins in memory bandwidth, delivering 896.0 GB/s versus 576.0 GB/s. It has more shading units at 8,960 versus 4,480, and it includes 280 tensor cores that the AMD card does not have. Its base clock is higher at 2,295 MHz versus 1,895 MHz. The NVIDIA card also uses a newer PCIe 5.0 x16 interface versus PCIe 4.0 x16, and it provides an HDMI 2.1b output alongside three DisplayPort 2.1b outputs, while the AMD card offers only DisplayPort connections.

The data does not support a definitive performance winner between these two cards due to the lack of overlapping benchmarks. The AMD card demonstrates strength in compute-oriented metrics and memory capacity, while the NVIDIA card demonstrates strength in bandwidth, shader count, and AI-oriented tensor cores. The choice between them depends on which recorded characteristics matter more for a given workload, though the database does not provide direct comparative evidence for that decision.
