AMD Radeon PRO W7900D vs NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 A Mobile Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The database contains no direct head-to-head benchmark results between these two GPUs, so the comparison must instead rely on the available recorded data for each part and their respective standings within the broader GPU landscape. The AMD Radeon PRO W7900D has no benchmark entries in the database, leaving its performance profile without measured scores. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 A Mobile, by contrast, has eight recorded benchmark results, an average score of 8746, and a percentile rank of 44 among all GPUs.

The absence of data for the W7900D means its raw compute figures, taken from the specification sheet, must serve as the basis for comparison. The W7900D delivers 52.99 TFLOPS of FP32 performance, while the RTX 3050 A Mobile delivers 4.813 TFLOPS. This represents a 11-fold difference in raw floating-point throughput, though such a gap is expected given the desktop workstation segment versus mobile laptop segment. The pixel rate shows a similar disparity: 414.0 GPixel/s for the W7900D against 42.98 GPixel/s for the RTX 3050 A Mobile, a 9.6x difference. Texture rate follows with 827.9 GTexel/s versus 75.21 GTexel/s, an 11x gap.

For the RTX 3050 A Mobile, the nearest rivals in the database provide context. The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460 v2 scores 8743, a 0 percent delta from the 3050 A's 8746 average. The NVIDIA Quadro P2200 scores 8686, 0.7 percent behind. The AMD Radeon R9 M265X scores 8851, 1.2 percent ahead, and the AMD Radeon Pro WX 5100 scores 8863, 1.3 percent ahead. These deltas show the 3050 A Mobile sits in a tight cluster where the difference between the closest competitors is under 1.5 percent. The W7900D has no rivals listed, so no such comparative frame exists for it.

The benchmark breakdown for the RTX 3050 A Mobile shows a wide spread across API tests. The Geekbench OpenCL score is 52998, a strong result that dwarfs the Passmark numbers. Within Passmark, the DirectX 9 score of 152 stands highest among the four DirectX tests, followed by DirectX 11 at 94, DirectX 10 at 61, and DirectX 12 at 55. The G2D score of 526 and G3D score of 11664 indicate that 2D performance is proportionally much lower than 3D. The GPU compute score of 4419 sits below the G3D figure, suggesting compute workloads do not scale as well as graphics rendering for this mobile part.

The percentile ranks place the 3050 A Mobile at 44, meaning it sits below the median of all GPUs in the database. The W7900D holds a percentile of 50, placing it exactly at the median, though this rank comes from its specification-based position rather than measured benchmarks. The average benchmark score for the W7900D is 0 in the database, a direct consequence of having no recorded test results. This makes any percentile comparison between the two parts inherently asymmetric: one has real measurement data, the other does not.

Architecture Differences

The W7900D uses RDNA 3.0 architecture with the codename Plum Bonito, part of the Radeon Pro Navi (Navi III Series) generation. The RTX 3050 A Mobile uses Ampere architecture, part of the GeForce 30 Mobile generation. These are fundamentally different design philosophies: RDNA 3.0 focuses on compute throughput with a 1:1 FP16 to FP32 ratio, while Ampere pairs ray tracing cores with tensor cores for specialized workloads.

The process nodes reflect different manufacturing partners: TSMC's 5 nm for the W7900D, Samsung's 8 nm for the RTX 3050 A Mobile. The W7900D's transistor density of 109.1M per mm² is more than double the RTX 3050 A Mobile's 43.5M per mm², indicating a much denser design. The W7900D's 57,700 million transistors on 529 mm² represent a large, complex chip, while the RTX 3050 A Mobile's 12,000 million transistors on 276 mm² is a smaller, more modest part.

Ray tracing implementation differs: the W7900D has 96 ray accelerators, the RTX 3050 A Mobile has 14 ray tracing cores plus 56 tensor cores. The tensor cores enable AI acceleration features that the W7900D does not list. The W7900D's FP16 performance matches its FP32 at 52.99 TFLOPS, indicating no dedicated half-precision path, while the RTX 3050 A Mobile also runs FP16 at 1:1 with FP32 at 4.813 TFLOPS.

The W7900D's memory subsystem is designed for bandwidth: 864.0 GB/s across a 384 bit bus. The RTX 3050 A Mobile's 192.0 GB/s across a 128 bit bus is a quarter of that bandwidth. The W7900D's 48 GB capacity suits large datasets, while the RTX 3050 A Mobile's 4 GB is suited to portable graphics workloads. The W7900D's release date of 2025-09-24 places it as a newer design than the RTX 3050 A Mobile's 2023-12-31 release.

Where Each One Wins

The W7900D wins on raw compute specifications across the board. Its FP32 throughput of 52.99 TFLOPS is 11 times that of the RTX 3050 A Mobile. Its pixel rate of 414.0 GPixel/s is 9.6 times higher. Its texture rate of 827.9 GTexel/s is 11 times higher. Its memory bandwidth of 864.0 GB/s is 4.5 times higher. Its 48 GB memory capacity is 12 times larger. These figures indicate workloads involving large textures, high-resolution rendering, and memory-intensive compute would favor the W7900D.

The W7900D also wins on connectivity. Its 3x DisplayPort 2.1 and 1x mini-DisplayPort 2.1 outputs support multi-monitor workstation setups, while the RTX 3050 A Mobile has no fixed outputs. The W7900D's PCIe 4.0 x16 interface provides double the bandwidth of the RTX 3050 A Mobile's x8 connection. The W7900D's active production status means it remains available, while the RTX 3050 A Mobile is end-of-life.

The RTX 3050 A Mobile wins on efficiency and form factor. Its 45 W power draw is 6.6 times lower than the W7900D's 295 W. Its IGP form factor with no power connectors suits laptop integration, while the W7900D requires a triple-slot chassis with 2x 8-pin connectors and a 600 W PSU. For portable applications, the RTX 3050 A Mobile is the only viable option of the two.

The RTX 3050 A Mobile wins on measured data availability. Its average benchmark score of 8746, G3D score of 11664, and Geekbench OpenCL score of 52998 provide concrete performance evidence. The W7900D has no benchmark entries, leaving its real-world performance unverified. The RTX 3050 A Mobile also has tensor cores for AI workloads, a feature absent from the W7900D's specification list.

The RTX 3050 A Mobile's nearest rivals all fall within 1.3 percent of its average score, showing it performs consistently with its peers. The W7900D has no rival comparisons, so its competitive position cannot be assessed from the database. For users needing immediate, verifiable performance data, the RTX 3050 A Mobile provides it; for users needing maximum compute specifications, the W7900D's numbers stand alone.
