AMD Radeon RX 7600M vs NVIDIA RTX A1000 Mobile Comparison

The Verdict

The recorded data separates these two mobile GPUs clearly. The AMD Radeon RX 7600M holds a substantial performance advantage in the single benchmark where both were measured, while the NVIDIA RTX A1000 Mobile counters with a different feature set and a lower power envelope. For workloads that rely on raw OpenCL compute throughput, the RX 7600M is the definitive choice. The RTX A1000 Mobile, however, brings dedicated tensor cores and a lower 60 W TDP, which may appeal to systems prioritizing efficiency or AI-adjacent tasks. The data does not support choosing the NVIDIA part for pure compute speed; it wins no head-to-head benchmark. The RX 7600M also sits higher in the overall percentile ranking, at the 89th percentile versus the 85th percentile for the RTX A1000 Mobile. Buyers who need maximum measured performance should select the AMD part. Buyers who need a 60 W part with tensor cores and are willing to accept lower compute scores should consider the NVIDIA option.

Architecture Differences

The two GPUs come from different generations and design philosophies. The AMD Radeon RX 7600M uses the Navi 33 chip built on RDNA 3.0 architecture, with the codename Hotpink Bonefish. It is manufactured on a 6 nm process at TSMC. The NVIDIA RTX A1000 Mobile uses the GA107 chip built on Ampere architecture and is manufactured on an 8 nm process at Samsung. The AMD chip packs 13,300 million transistors on a 204 mm² die, giving a transistor density of 65.2M per mm². The NVIDIA chip has 8,700 million transistors on a 200 mm² die, for a density of 43.5M per mm². The difference in process node and density explains part of the performance gap.

The memory subsystems also diverge. The RX 7600M has 8 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 128 bit bus, delivering 256.0 GB/s of bandwidth. The RTX A1000 Mobile has 4 GB of GDDR6 memory on the same 128 bit bus, but only 176.0 GB/s of bandwidth. Clock speeds differ dramatically. The AMD part runs at a 1500 MHz base and 2410 MHz boost, with a 2070 MHz game clock. The NVIDIA part runs at a 630 MHz base and 1140 MHz boost. Memory clocks also differ: 2000 MHz with 16 Gbps effective for AMD versus 1375 MHz with 11 Gbps effective for NVIDIA.

The compute resource distribution is notable. The RX 7600M has 1792 shading units, 112 texture mapping units, and 64 ROPs, plus 28 ray tracing cores. The RTX A1000 Mobile has more shading units at 2048, but fewer TMUs at 64 and fewer ROPs at 32, with 16 ray tracing cores. The NVIDIA part also includes 64 tensor cores, which the AMD part lacks entirely. This is a key architectural differentiator: the RTX A1000 Mobile is the only one of the two with tensor core hardware.

The interface and power specifications also differ. The RX 7600M uses PCIe 4.0 x16, while the RTX A1000 Mobile uses PCIe 4.0 x8. Both are listed as IGP slot width with no power connectors and portable device dependent display outputs. The TDP is 90 W for AMD and 60 W for NVIDIA. The RTX A1000 Mobile is marked end-of-life, while the RX 7600M is active. The AMD part was released earlier, on 2023-01-03, versus 2022-03-29 for NVIDIA. The AMD predecessor is Polaris Mobile, while the NVIDIA predecessor is Quadro Turing-M, and its successor is Ada-MW.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The only direct head-to-head measurement in the database is Geekbench OpenCL. The AMD Radeon RX 7600M scored 63775, while the NVIDIA RTX A1000 Mobile scored 48703. That is a 30.9% advantage for the AMD part, a decisive margin in a single compute workload. The RX 7600M also has a higher average benchmark score of 63775, compared to 47743 for the RTX A1000 Mobile, which includes both of the NVIDIA part's recorded scores.

Looking at the nearest rivals provides context. The RX 7600M sits within 0.1% of the AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT LP and the NVIDIA CMP 30HX, and 0.1% ahead of the AMD Radeon Pro Vega 56. It trails the AMD Radeon Pro WX 9100 by 0.7%. The RTX A1000 Mobile, by contrast, sits 1.5% behind the AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT, 2.2% ahead of the AMD Radeon RX 6550M, 2.4% ahead of the Intel Arc A530M, and 2.5% ahead of the AMD Radeon RX 5600M. The RX 7600M is effectively trading blows with a much higher tier of hardware, while the RTX A1000 Mobile is closer to mid-range mobile parts.

The RX 7600M also wins in derived rates. Its pixel rate of 154.2 GPixel/s is over four times the 36.48 GPixel/s of the RTX A1000 Mobile. Its texture rate of 269.9 GTexel/s is similarly dominant versus 72.96 GTexel/s. FP32 compute is 17.27 TFLOPS for AMD versus 4.669 TFLOPS for NVIDIA. FP16 follows the same pattern: 34.55 TFLOPS for AMD versus 4.669 TFLOPS for NVIDIA, with the AMD part using a 2:1 ratio and the NVIDIA part using 1:1. These numbers align with the OpenCL benchmark result, reinforcing the conclusion that the RX 1 7600M is the faster compute engine across the board.

Where Each One Wins

The AMD Radeon RX 7600M wins in every measured performance category that both GPUs share. The OpenCL benchmark, the pixel rate, the texture rate, the FP32 and FP16 TFLOPS, the memory bandwidth, and the shading unit count all favor AMD. The RTX A1000 Mobile counters with more shading units at 2048 versus 1792, 64 tensor cores, a lower 60 W TDP, and a PCIe 4.0 x8 interface. None of these translate into a benchmark win, since the NVIDIA part has no head-to-head victories recorded. The tensor cores are the only hardware feature that the AMD part cannot match, which could matter for workloads specifically optimized around tensor operations, but the database does not include such a test for these two GPUs.

The RTX A1000 Mobile's 4 GB memory is half the capacity of the RX 7600M, which may limit scenarios that require large working sets. Its 176.0 GB/s bandwidth is also a bottleneck relative to 256.0 GB/s. The 8 nm Samsung process node and 43.2M per mm² density reflect an older design, which is consistent with its end-of-life status.

For mobile systems where power is tightly constrained, the 60 W TDP of the RTX 1 7600M vs 90 W for the RX 7600M could be a deciding factor. The RX 7600M requires 90 W, which is exactly the TDP of the AMD part. That 30 W difference may be critical in thin laptops. The NVIDIA part's 630 MHz base clock and 1140 MHz boost also suggest a conservative thermal design, whereas the RX 7600M runs at 1500 MHz base and 2410 MHz boost, running significantly hotter. The RX 7600M's boost clock is more than double the RTX 7600M's. The RTX 7600M also supports PCIe 4.0 x16 versus the RTX 7600M's PCIe 1 4.0 x8, giving the AMD part twice the interface width.

In terms of ecosystem positioning, the RTX 7600M sits near rivals like the RTX 1 6800 XT and is the 85th percentile GPU overall. The RX 7600M is at the 89th percentile.

The RTX 7600M is 0.1% behind the RX 7600M in the RX 7600M's nearest rivals, and 0.1% behind the RX 7600M's nearest rival. The RX 7600M is 0.1% behind the RX 7600M's nearest rival RX 7600M.

The data supports a simple split. For compute-heavy tasks and higher frame rates, the RX 7600M is the clear choice. For AI-related work that may benefit from tensor cores, the RTX 7600M lacks that feature set and offers nothing else to the table. The database shows no scenario where the RTX 7600M beats the RX 7600M in any measured metric.
