AMD Radeon RX 7600M XT vs AMD Radeon RX 7650 GRE Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The recorded data shows two direct benchmark comparisons between the AMD Radeon RX 7600M XT and the AMD Radeon RX 7650 GRE. In both tests, the RX 7650 GRE takes the win, but the margins are not uniform.

In 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12, the RX 7650 GRE scores 2336 against 2048 for the RX 7600M XT. That is a 12.3% advantage for the RX 7650 GRE. This test stresses modern DirectX 12 workloads, including ray tracing and asynchronous compute, so the gap reflects the higher sustained clock behavior of the desktop card.

The Geekbench OpenCL test tells a similar story. The RX 7650 GRE records 83109 points, while the RX 7600M XT manages 74869. The delta here is 9.9% in favor of the RX 7650 GRE. OpenCL is a general-purpose compute workload, and the result indicates that the RX 7650 GRE not only wins in gaming-oriented benchmarks but also in raw compute throughput.

The RX 7600M XT does not win either of the two head-to-head tests. Its average benchmark score across all recorded tests is 12710, while the RX 7650 GRE sits at 42723. That average includes a much wider set of tests for the RX 7600M XT, including Passmark DirectX 9, 10, 11, 12, G2D, G3D, and GPU compute, plus Geekbench Vulkan. The RX 7650 GRE has only two recorded benchmarks, so the average comparison is not apples-to-apples, but the two shared tests both favor the RX 7650 GRE.

The percentile placement reinforces the gap. The RX 7600M XT sits at the 52nd percentile of all GPUs in the database, meaning it lands just above the midpoint. The RX 7650 GRE sits at the 83rd percentile, a clear step up in overall standing. The nearest rivals for the RX 7600M XT are older NVIDIA parts: the GeForce GTX 670, Tesla K20Xm, GTX 590, and AMD Radeon Pro 455, all within 0.9% of its average score. The RX 7650 GRE, by contrast, sits within 1.3% of the GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER, Quadro M6000 24 GB, RTX 5050 Mobile, and Quadro M6000. The competitive neighborhood of the RX 7650 GRE is a generation or two ahead of the RX 7600M XT's rivals.

Architecture Differences

Both GPUs share the same fundamental silicon. They use the Navi 33 chip, the RDNA 3.0 architecture, and the Hotpink Bonefish codename. Both are built on a 6 nm process at TSMC, with 13,300 million transistors on a 204 mm² die. Transistor density is identical at 65.2 million per square millimeter.

The internal compute configuration matches as well. Each has 2048 shading units, 128 texture mapping units, 64 raster output units, and 32 ray tracing cores. Neither has tensor cores. Memory is also identical: 8 GB of GDDR6 on a 128-bit bus, with 288.0 GB/s of bandwidth and an effective memory speed of 18 Gbps.

The differences lie in clocks, power delivery, and form factor. The RX 7600M XT has a base clock of 1280 MHz, a boost clock of 2469 MHz, and a game clock of 2023 MHz. The RX 7650 GRE runs significantly higher: 1720 MHz base, 2695 MHz boost, and 2350 MHz game clock. That is a 440 MHz gap at base, 226 MHz at boost, and 327 MHz at game clock. Higher clocks translate directly to throughput. The RX 7650 GRE reaches 22.08 TFLOPS of FP32 compute, while the RX 7600M XT delivers 20.23 TFLOPS. Texture rate also favors the RX 7650 GRE at 345.0 GTexel/s versus 316.0 GTexel/s, and pixel rate is 172.5 GPixel/s versus 158.0 GPixel/s.

The FP16 numbers reveal an architectural difference in how the two are configured. The RX 7600M XT lists FP16 at 40.45 TFLOPS with a 2:1 ratio, meaning it can double FP16 throughput relative to FP32. The RX 7650 GRE lists FP16 at 22.08 TFLOPS with a 1:1 ratio, meaning it processes FP16 at the same rate as FP32. This is a notable divergence given the identical core counts. The RX 7600M XT is configured to accelerate FP16 workloads, while the RX 7650 GRE does not double FP16 rate.

Power and physical design differ substantially. The RX 7600M XT carries a 120 W TDP, is listed as an integrated graphics package (IGP) with no slot width, no power connectors, and display outputs described as portable device dependent. The RX 7650 GRE has a 170 W TDP, a dual-slot design, a single 8-pin power connector, a suggested PSU of 450 W, and a display output array of one HDMI 2.1a port and three DisplayPort 2.1 connectors. Its physical dimensions are 204 mm in length and 115 mm in height.

The RX 7600M XT uses a PCIe 4.0 x16 bus interface, while the RX 7650 GRE uses PCIe 4.0 x8. The RX 7600M XT belongs to the Navi Mobile (RX 7000M) generation, while the RX 7650 GRE belongs to the Navi III (RX 7000) generation. The RX 7600M XT's predecessor is Polaris Mobile, and the RX 7650 GRE's predecessor is Navi II; the RX 7650 GRE's successor is Navi IV. Release timing also differs: the RX 7600M XT launched on January 3, 2023, and the RX 7650 GRE launched on February 6, 2025.

Where Each One Wins

The RX 7650 GRE wins every shared benchmark in the database. In 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12, it leads by 12.3%, and in Geekbench OpenCL it leads by 9.9%. Its higher base, game, and boost clocks give it a decisive edge in both gaming and compute scenarios. The 83rd percentile placement and average score of 42723 place it near modern high-end parts. Its nearest rivals include the GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER and RTX 5050 Mobile, which indicates it competes in a performance class well above the RX 7600M XT's neighborhood.

The RX 7600M XT has no benchmark wins in the head-to-head data. Its strengths are not in raw performance but in efficiency and mobility. The 120 W TDP is 50 W lower than the RX 7650 GRE's 170 W. The RX 7600M XT also uses a PCIe 4.0 x16 interface, which offers double the lane width of the RX 7650 GRE's x8 link, though the practical impact depends on the platform. The FP16 2:1 ratio gives the RX 7600M XT a compute advantage in FP16-heavy workloads, reaching 40.45 TFLOPS versus 22.08 TFLOPS for the RX 7650 GRE. For applications that rely on FP16 tensor-style math, the RX 7600M XT is the stronger part despite its lower FP32 throughput.

The RX 7600M XT also holds advantages in physical flexibility. It has no power connectors, no slot width requirement, and display outputs that are portable device dependent. That makes it suitable for compact or integrated designs. The RX 7650 GRE requires a dual-slot footprint, a single 8-pin connector, and a 450 W PSU recommendation. The RX 7600M XT fits where space and power delivery are constrained.

The Verdict

The data shows a clear performance hierarchy. The AMD Radeon RX 7650 GRE is the faster GPU in every shared benchmark, with a 12.3% lead in 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 and a 9.9% lead in Geekbench OpenCL. Its higher clocks across the board, from 1720 MHz base to 2695 MHz boost, produce higher FP32 throughput, texture rate, and pixel rate. Its 83rd percentile placement and average score of 42723 put it in a different competitive class than the RX 7600M XT, whose 52nd percentile and 12710 average place it among much older GPUs.

The RX 7600M XT remains the appropriate choice for systems where power and space are the primary constraints. Its 120 W TDP, lack of external power connectors, and IGP form factor allow integration into portable designs. The RX 7650 GRE, with its 170 W TDP, dual-slot cooler, and 8-pin power requirement, demands a conventional desktop chassis with a 450 W PSU.

The FP16 difference is the one area where the RX 7600M XT holds a measurable edge. Its 40.45 TFLOPS FP16 throughput at a 2:1 ratio doubles the RX 7650 GRE's 22.08 TFLOPS at a 1:1 ratio. Workloads that are FP16-bound would favor the RX 7600M XT, despite its lower FP32 performance. For standard gaming and general compute, the RX 7650 GRE is the better part, as its higher clocks and larger performance margins demonstrate. The launch MSRP of the RX 7650 GRE is 279 USD for reference.
