Analysis: AMD Radeon R7 M370 vs NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server
Head-to-Head Benchmarks
The recorded data for these two cards is separated by a decade of GPU development, and the benchmark results reflect that divide clearly. The AMD Radeon R7 M370 posts an average benchmark score of 6764, while the NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server records an average score of 5996. On raw average scores, the AMD card is roughly 12.8% higher, but that comparison is misleading because the two cards were tested under different benchmark suites. The R7 M370 has results in Geekbench OpenCL (7063) and Geekbench Vulkan (6465), while the RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server has a single result in 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 (5996). These are not directly comparable workloads, so the head-to-head must be read carefully.
Looking at the AMD card's nearest rivals, the data shows it sits within a narrow band of comparable mobile GPUs. It is 1% ahead of the NVIDIA GeForce GT 1010 (average score 6698) and 2.3% ahead of the AMD Radeon R7 M460 (average score 6612). Against the AMD FirePro M5100 (average score 6830), it trails by 1%, and it is 2.6% behind the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 675M (average score 6946). These deltas are small, meaning the R7 M370 is competitive with its immediate peers but not dominant in its class.
The NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server, despite its enormous architectural resources, sits at a 34th percentile versus all GPUs in the database, with its neighboring rivals all clustered within a 0.3% spread. The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770M (average score 6000) is 0.1% ahead, the AMD Radeon RX 6400 (average score 6001) is 0.1% ahead, while the AMD FirePro W4100 (average score 5987) and NVIDIA Quadro K4000M (average score 5986) trail by 0.2% each. The narrowness of these deltas suggests that the single 3DMark test score does not capture the full capability of the Blackwell architecture; it is a single data point in a specialized workload, not a comprehensive measure.
The R7 M370's percentile versus all GPUs is 38, which places it slightly above the RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server's 34th percentile. However, percentile ranks depend on the mix of GPUs in the database and the tests each GPU has run, so the practical takeaway is that both cards occupy the lower-middle range of the database's overall distribution. The R7 M370 wins the only direct numeric comparison available (average benchmark score), but the RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server's single 3DMark result cannot be extrapolated into a general performance verdict. For OpenCL-style compute tasks, the R7 M370's 7063 score is its strongest showing, while its Vulkan result of 6465 is weaker. The RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server has no OpenCL or Vulkan records in the database, so any comparison of those APIs is impossible from the recorded data.

Where Each One Wins
The AMD Radeon R7 M370 wins on benchmark coverage and average score. It has two recorded benchmarks (Geekbench OpenCL at 7063 and Geekbench Vulkan at 6465), and its average score of 6764 is higher than the RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server's single 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 result of 5996. For anyone comparing general compute performance across OpenCL and Vulkan workloads, the R7 M370 is the only card of the two with data in those APIs. Its percentile rank of 38 also exceeds the NVIDIA card's 34, so within the database's overall distribution, the AMD part ranks slightly higher.
The NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server wins on architectural capability and absolute hardware resources. It has 24,064 shading units, 752 TMUs, 192 ROPs, 188 RT cores, and 752 tensor cores, with a boost clock of 2617 MHz. Its FP32 throughput is 126.0 TFLOPS, and its FP16 throughput matches at 126.0 TFLOPS (1:1). The memory subsystem is equally vast: 96 GB of GDDR7 on a 512-bit bus, delivering 1.79 TB/s of bandwidth. These figures dwarf the R7 M370's 384 shading units, 24 TMUs, 8 ROPs, 2 GB of GDDR5 on a 128-bit bus, and 57.60 GB/s bandwidth. The Blackwell card also supports DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2) and Vulkan 1.4, while the R7 M370 is limited to DirectX 12 (11_1) and Vulkan 1.2.170.
The practical split is simple: the R7 M370 wins the recorded benchmark comparison, while the RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server wins every specification comparison. The 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 5996 is a single ray-traced workload result, and the card's proximity to much older mobile GPUs in that test suggests the test may not be representative of the card's intended server workloads. The R7 M370's wins come from having more benchmark data points and a higher average, not from being a more powerful GPU.
Specification Differences
The two cards differ in nearly every measurable specification. The R7 M370 uses a 28 nm process node from TSMC, while the RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server uses a 5 nm node from the same foundry. Transistor counts are vastly different: the R7 M370 has 950 million transistors on a 77 mm² die, while the RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server has 92,200 million transistors on a 750 mm² die. Transistor density also differs, with the R7 M370 at 12.3M / mm² versus 122.9M / mm² for the NVIDIA card.
Clock speeds favor the NVIDIA card. The R7 M370 has a base clock of 875 MHz and a boost of 960 MHz, while the RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server runs at a base of 1590 MHz and boosts to 2617 MHz. Memory clocks differ as well: the R7 M370's memory runs at 900 MHz (3.6 Gbps effective), while the NVIDIA card's memory runs at 1750 MHz (28 Gbps effective). Memory capacity jumps from 2 GB GDDR5 to 96 GB GDDR7, bus width from 128 bit to 512 bit, and bandwidth from 57.60 GB/s to 1.79 TB/s.
Compute resources are in different leagues. The R7 M370 has 384 shading units, 24 TMUs, and 8 ROPs; the RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server has 24,064 shading units, 752 TMUs, and 192 ROPs. The NVIDIA card adds 188 RT cores and 752 tensor cores, which the AMD card lacks entirely. Pixel rate is 7.680 GPixel/s for the R7 M370 versus 502.5 GPixel/s for the RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server. Texture rate is 23.04 GTexel/s versus 1,968.0 GTexel/s. FP32 performance is 737.3 GFLOPS versus 126.0 TFLOPS.
The bus interface also differs: PCIe 3.0 x8 for the AMD card versus PCIe 5.0 x16 for the NVIDIA card. Power draw is only recorded for the NVIDIA card, which lists a TDP of 600 W, a dual-slot form factor, a 1x 16-pin power connector, and a suggested PSU of 1000 W. The R7 M370 has no recorded TDP, slot width, power connector, or PSU recommendation. Display outputs are listed only for the NVIDIA card (4x DisplayPort 2.1b). The R7 M370's dimensions are unrecorded, while the RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server measures 267 mm in length, 111 mm in height, and 40 mm in width. Production status differs too: the R7 M370 is end-of-life, while the NVIDIA card is active. Release dates are May 4, 2015 for the AMD card and March 17, 2025 for the NVIDIA card.
Architecture Differences
The architectural gap is generational. The AMD Radeon R7 M370 is built on GCN 1.0 architecture, the first iteration of AMD's Graphics Core Next design, and belongs to the Gem System (R7 M7 M300) generation under the older Solar System family. Its chip codename is Litho. The NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server uses Blackwell 2.0 architecture on the GB202 chip, belonging to the Server Blackwell (Bxx) generation. The AMD card's predecessor is Server Hopper, and its successor is Server Rubin; the AMD card's predecessor is Solar System and its successor is Polaris Mobile.
The R7 M370 supports DirectX 12 (11_1), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.2.170. The RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server supports DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4. Both cards share OpenGL 4.6, but the NVIDIA card's DirectX and Vulkan support are newer and more feature-complete. The NVIDIA card also includes dedicated RT cores (188) and tensor cores (752), which are absent from the R7 M370's design. FP16 support is recorded only for the NVIDIA card, at 126.0 TFLOPS (1:1) with FP32.
The process node difference (28 nm versus 5 nm) and transistor density difference (12.3M / mm² versus 122.9M / mm²) are the foundational architectural divides. The R7 M370 is a small, low-transistor mobile part from 2015; the RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server is a massive server GPU with nearly 100 times the transistor count. The Blackwell architecture's 1:1 FP16/FP32 ratio and tensor core support indicate a design aimed at AI and compute workloads, while GCN 1.0 was built for conventional rasterization in an era before ray tracing acceleration and tensor processing were standard.
The Verdict
The data supports a clear split based on use case. If the task involves the benchmark workloads recorded in the database, the AMD Radeon R7 M370 is the better-scoring card: its average of 6764 beats the RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server's 5996, and it has OpenCL and Vulkan results the NVIDIA card lacks entirely. Its 38th percentile rank versus all GPUs is also above the NVIDIA card's 34th. Builders working with older OpenCL-based applications or Vulkan 1.2 workloads would see recorded performance that is competitive with, or slightly better than, the NVIDIA card's single 3DMark result.
If the task involves modern server-class compute, ray tracing, tensor workloads, or DirectX 12 Ultimate applications, the RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server is the obvious choice based on specifications alone. It has 126.0 TFLOPS FP32, 126.0 TFLOPS FP16 (1:1, 96 GB of GDDR7 memory, 188 RT cores, 752 tensor cores, and 1.79 TB/s of bandwidth. None of those numbers exist for the R7 M370 in the database. The NVIDIA card supports Vulkan 1.4 and DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), and it is an active product, while the AMD card is end-of-life with older API support capped at DirectX 12 (11_1).
The R7 M370 with 384 shading units and 2 GB GDDR5 is a last-generation mobile GPU with no ray tracing support and no recorded power or thermal data. The RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server with 24,064 shading units and 600 W TDP is a dual-slot, PCIe 5.0 x16 server card with a 1x 16-pin connector and a 1000 W suggested PSU. The R7 M370 is the better choice for users who value benchmark coverage and OpenCL performance records; the RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server is the better pick for anyone who needs modern API support, massive memory capacity, and professional server-oriented features. The recorded scores do not reflect the NVIDIA card's architectural potential, so the verdict is situational: the AMD card wins the database comparison, the NVIDIA card wins on every recorded hardware specification.
