AMD Radeon Pro WX 7100 vs NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Mobile Comparison

The AMD Radeon Pro WX 7100 and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Mobile represent two vastly different eras of GPU design, and the benchmark data reflects a complete generational shift in performance. The data shows the NVIDIA part winning both head-to-head compute tests by a wide margin, yet the AMD card still holds a slightly higher percentile ranking among all GPUs, creating a nuanced picture that goes beyond raw speed.

Where Each One Wins

The performance split between these two cards is stark, with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Mobile dominating every benchmark category where data exists. In the head-to-head comparison, the NVIDIA card wins both available tests: Geekbench OpenCL and Geekbench Vulkan. The Geekbench OpenCL result shows the RTX 5070 Ti Mobile scoring 143,870 against the WX 7100’s 40,148, which translates to a 72.1% advantage for the NVIDIA part. Similarly, in Geekbench Vulkan, the RTX 5070 Ti Mobile scores 139,213 versus 39,683, a 71.5% lead.

The RTX 5070 Ti Mobile also fields a broader suite of additional benchmarks in its own profile, including PassMark tests across DirectX 9, 10, 11, and 12, plus G2D, G3D, and GPU compute tests. Its PassMark G3D score of 24,004 and GPU compute score of 10,101 are the standout figures in its own benchmark set, though no comparable data exists for the WX 7100. The AMD card, by contrast, only has Geekbench Metal, OpenCL, and Vulkan scores, with its best result being 40,357 in Geekbench Metal.

However, the AMD card wins on a different metric: percentile ranking. The WX 7100 sits at the 82nd percentile against all GPUs, while the RTX 5070 Ti Mobile is at the 80th percentile. This suggests that despite the NVIDIA card’s massive raw performance advantage in compute workloads, the AMD card still holds a marginally better position within the broader GPU landscape, likely due to its workstation-oriented feature set and driver optimizations.

Architecture Differences

The architectural gap between these two GPUs is enormous. The AMD Radeon Pro WX 7100 uses the Ellesmere chip built on GCN 4.0 architecture, fabricated on a 14 nm process at GlobalFoundries. It packs 5,700 million transistors into a 232 mm² die, yielding a transistor density of 24.6 million per mm². The memory subsystem consists of 8 GB of GDDR5 on a 256-bit bus, delivering 224.0 GB/s of bandwidth. The card has 2,304 shading units, 144 texture mapping units, and 32 raster operation units, with peak FP32 performance of 5.728 TFLOPS.

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Mobile is built on the GB205 chip using Blackwell 2.0 architecture, fabricated on a 5 nm process at TSMC. It contains 31,100 million transistors in a slightly larger 263 mm² die, achieving a much higher transistor density of 118.3 million per mm². The memory configuration jumps to 12 GB of GDDR7 on a 192-bit bus, with bandwidth more than tripling to 672.0 GB/s. The compute core count is more than double, with 5,888 shading units, 184 TMUs, and 80 ROPs. It also includes 46 ray tracing cores and 184 tensor cores, features entirely absent from the AMD card. Peak FP32 performance reaches 17.04 TFLOPS.

The power envelope is drastically different. The WX 7100 carries a 130 W TDP, requires a single 6-pin power connector, and occupies a single-slot form factor with a 241 mm length. The RTX 5070 Ti Mobile, being a mobile IGP, has a 60 W TDP, uses no external power connectors, and has dimensions listed as "Portable Device Dependent." The bus interface also advances from PCIe 3.0 x16 on the AMD card to PCIe 5.0 x16 on the NVIDIA part. API support differs as well: the WX 7100 supports DirectX 12 (12_0) and Vulkan 1.3, while the RTX 5070 Ti Mobile supports DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2) and Vulkan 1.4.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The two direct comparison points paint a clear picture of NVIDIA’s dominance. In Geekbench OpenCL, the RTX 5070 Ti Mobile scores 143,870, which is 103,722 points higher than the WX 7100’s 40,148. The delta percentage of -72.1% indicates the AMD card falls short by that margin. In Geekbench Vulkan, the RTX 5070 Ti Mobile scores 139,213 against 39,683, a difference of 99,530 points and a delta of -71.5%.

These results align with the raw specifications. The RTX 5070 Ti Mobile’s FP32 throughput of 17.04 TFLOPS is roughly triple the WX 7100’s 5.728 TFLOPS. The NVIDIA card’s memory bandwidth of 672.0 GB/s is exactly three times the AMD card’s 224.0 GB/s. The texture rate also favors NVIDIA at 266.2 GTexel/s versus 179.0 GTexel/s, and the pixel rate jumps from 39.78 GPixel/s to 115.8 GPixel/s.

Looking at the nearest rivals for each card adds context. The WX 7100’s average benchmark score of 40,063 is remarkably close to the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 (non-Ti), which averages 40,377 with a delta of -0.8%. It is also within 1.3% of the AMD Radeon Pro 575 and the NVIDIA RTX A500 Mobile. The RTX 5070 Ti Mobile’s average score of 35,435 is dragged down by its additional PassMark scores, which are much lower than its Geekbench results. Its nearest rival, the NVIDIA Quadro GV100, scores 35,520 (delta -0.2%), while the AMD Radeon Pro Duo scores 35,860 (delta -1.2%).

The Verdict

The data makes the performance hierarchy unambiguous. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Mobile is the superior compute performer, winning both head-to-head benchmarks by over 70% and offering more than triple the FP32 throughput at 17.04 TFLOPS versus 5.728 TFLOPS. Its memory bandwidth advantage is equally decisive at 672.0 GB/s versus 224.0 GB/s, and it brings modern features like ray tracing cores, tensor cores, and DirectX 12 Ultimate support that the AMD card cannot match.

The AMD Radeon Pro WX 7100, however, still holds a higher percentile rank at 82 versus 80, and its average benchmark score of 40,063 is actually higher than the RTX 5070 Ti Mobile’s 35,435 average. This is because the NVIDIA card’s PassMark scores, which range from 102 in DirectX 12 to 24,004 in G3D, pull its average down. The WX 7100’s consistent Geekbench scores across Metal, OpenCL, and Vulkan, all near 40,000, keep its average stable.

For users choosing between these two, the decision hinges on workload. The RTX 5070 Ti Mobile is the clear choice for any task relying on OpenCL or Vulkan compute, where it leads by roughly 3.5x. Its 12 GB of GDDR7 memory and 46 ray tracing cores make it suitable for modern graphics workloads that leverage those features. The WX 7100, despite being end-of-life with a 2016 release date, still offers competitive performance in its own niche, particularly given its 4x DisplayPort 1.4a outputs and workstation-oriented design. Its 8 GB of GDDR5 memory and 130 W TDP make it a more modest but still capable option for legacy professional applications. The RTX 5070 Ti Mobile, released in 2025, is the forward-looking pick, while the WX 7100 remains a serviceable entry-level workstation card from a previous generation.
