AMD Radeon RX 5300M vs NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Mobile Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The recorded data contains a single direct comparison between the AMD Radeon RX 5300M and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Mobile: the Geekbench OpenCL test. The results are decisive. The RTX 5070 Mobile scores 122,238, while the RX 5300M scores 36,529. That represents a 70.1% deficit for the AMD part, meaning the NVIDIA GPU delivers roughly three and a half times the raw compute throughput in this workload.

Context from the database's nearest rival lists reinforces the scale of the gap. The RX 5300M sits at the 80th percentile among all GPUs, with an average benchmark score of 36,529. Its closest competitor is the NVIDIA GeForce GTX TITAN X, which averages 36,530, a delta of 0%. The AMD card is effectively tied with a desktop flagship from several generations ago. On the other side, the RTX 5070 Mobile's nearest rival in average score is the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti at 29,945, with the RTX 5070 Mobile trailing by only 0.1%. The RTX 5070 Mobile's percentile ranking is 75, slightly lower than the RX 5300M's 80, but this is a function of the modern GPU's much broader benchmark profile across multiple test suites.

The RTX 5070 Mobile has additional benchmark data covering DirectX 10, 11, 12, and 9, plus G2D, G3D, and compute tests. Its Passmark G3D score is 20,355, its GPU compute score is 8,279, and its DirectX 12 score is 93. The RX 5300M has no comparable entries in these categories, so no direct cross-format comparison is possible from the database.

Where Each One Wins

Based strictly on the available measurements, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Mobile wins the only head-to-head benchmark available, the Geekbench OpenCL test, by a 70.1% margin. This is an unambiguous victory in a compute-oriented workload. The RX 5300M has zero wins in the head-to-head dataset.

The RX 5300M's nearest rival data shows it performing within 1.9% of the AMD Radeon Pro Duo and within 0.7% of the NVIDIA T1000, while trailing the AMD Radeon PRO W6400 by 1.7%. These are all older or lower-tier professional and consumer GPUs. The RTX 5070 Mobile, by contrast, is bracketed by high-end desktop parts like the RTX 3070 Ti and RTX 2080 Ti, with deltas of 0.1% and 0.5% respectively, and it sits within 1.7% of the AMD Radeon RX 6700. The NVIDIA part's performance class is categorically higher.

For users prioritizing compute throughput, the choice is clear. For anyone looking at the RX 5300M, the data shows it belongs to a much older performance tier. The RTX 5070 Mobile's additional benchmark entries, particularly its Passmark G3D score of 20,355 and DirectX 12 score of 93, indicate a GPU that is designed for modern gaming and graphics workloads, even if those specific tests were not run against the AMD part in this dataset.

Architecture Differences

The two GPUs are separated by roughly five years of silicon evolution. The AMD Radeon RX 5300M uses the Navi 14 chip built on RDNA 1.0 architecture, fabricated on a 7 nm process at TSMC. It contains 6,400 million transistors on a 158 mm² die, giving a transistor density of 40.5 million per square millimeter. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Mobile uses the GB206 chip on Blackwell 2.0 architecture, also built at TSMC but on a 5 nm process. It packs 21,900 million transistors into a 181 mm² die, achieving 121.0 million transistors per square millimeter. That is nearly three times the density of the AMD chip.

Memory configurations differ substantially. The RX 5300M has 3 GB of GDDR6 on a 96-bit bus, yielding 168.0 GB/s of bandwidth. The RTX 5070 Mobile has 8 GB of GDDR7 on a 128-bit bus, delivering 384.0 GB/s. The NVIDIA part more than doubles both capacity and bandwidth.

Compute resources are heavily skewed toward the newer GPU. The RX 5300M has 1,408 shading units, 88 texture mapping units, and 32 render output units. The RTX 5070 Mobile has 4,608 shading units, 144 TMUs, and 48 ROPs. The NVIDIA part also includes 36 ray tracing cores and 144 tensor cores; the AMD part has none listed. Pixel rate for the RX 5300M is 46.24 GPixel/s and texture rate is 127.2 GTexel/s. The RTX 5070 Mobile achieves 68.40 GPixel/s and 205.2 GTexel/s. FP32 throughput is 4.069 TFLOPS for AMD versus 13.13 TFLOPS for NVIDIA. FP16 is 8.138 TFLOPS for AMD with a 2:1 ratio, while NVIDIA manages 13.13 TFLOPS at a 1:1 ratio.

Clock behavior is interesting. The RX 5300M has a higher base clock at 1000 MHz versus 907 MHz, and a higher boost clock at 1445 MHz versus 1425 MHz. The AMD part also lists a game clock of 1181 MHz, while the NVIDIA part has no game clock listed. The RX 5300M's memory runs at 1750 MHz with 14 Gbps effective, while the RTX 5070 Mobile's memory runs at 1500 MHz with 24 Gbps effective.

Power draw is counterintuitive. The RX 5300M is rated at 85 W TDP, while the RTX 5070 Mobile is rated at just 50 W. Neither card requires external power connectors. The bus interface differs as well: PCIe 4.0 x8 for AMD, PCIe 5.0 x16 for NVIDIA.

The Verdict

The data points to a straightforward conclusion: the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Mobile is in a different performance class than the AMD Radeon RX 5300M. The 70.1% deficit in the only head-to-head benchmark is overwhelming. The RTX 5070 Mobile's 13.13 TFLOPS of FP32 performance, 384.0 GB/s of memory bandwidth, and 8 GB of GDDR7 memory place it firmly in modern gaming and compute territory. The RX 5300M's 4.069 TFLOPS and 168.0 GB/s bandwidth, combined with its end-of-life production status and 2019 release date, mark it as a legacy part.

Who should pick the RX 5300M? Only someone constrained to that specific hardware, such as a buyer of an older pre-built laptop with no upgrade path. The database shows it competing with the GTX TITAN X, T1000, and Radeon PRO W6400, all of which are older or lower-tier parts. Its 80th percentile ranking is respectable for its era, but the architecture is outdated.

Who should pick the RTX 5070 Mobile? Anyone selecting a new laptop GPU. It offers ray tracing cores and tensor cores, which the RX 5300M lacks entirely. Its nearest rivals include the RTX 3070 Ti and RTX 2080 Ti, both highly regarded desktop GPUs. The RTX 5070 Mobile also does this at a lower TDP of 50 W versus 85 W, which is remarkable for a part with roughly three times the shading units. The RTX 5070 Mobile's active production status and 2025 release date indicate current availability and driver support.
