AMD Radeon RX 7650 GRE vs AMD Ryzen Z2 A GPU Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The recorded data for the AMD Radeon RX 7650 GRE and the AMD Ryzen Z2 A GPU paints a starkly contrasting picture, primarily because the former has a substantial benchmark footprint while the latter currently has no recorded benchmark scores. The RX 7650 GRE posts an average benchmark score of 42,723 across the database, whereas the Z2 A GPU sits at 0 pending any submitted results.

In the 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 test, the RX 7650 GRE records a score of 2,336. In Geekbench OpenCL, the same card delivers 83,109 points. These are the only two discrete benchmark entries present for either product, and both belong exclusively to the Radeon RX 7650 GRE. The Ryzen Z2 A GPU has no entries in any test, leaving its performance envelope entirely unquantified by direct measurements.

The absence of rival data for the Z2 A GPU is not merely a lack of head-to-head results; the product's own benchmark array is empty. This means there is no basis for computing deltas, no percentile standing among similar parts, and no comparative wins or losses to report. The RX 7650 GRE, by contrast, holds an 83rd percentile rank among all GPUs in the database, indicating that it outperforms the vast majority of recorded graphics processors.

When contextualizing the RX 7650 GRE against its nearest recorded rivals, the margins are narrow but consistent. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER averages 43,223, which places the RX 7650 GRE 1.2% behind. The NVIDIA Quadro M6000 24 GB averages 43,262, again a 1.2% deficit. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050 Mobile averages 43,268, a 1.3% gap, and the NVIDIA Quadro M6000 averages 43,301, also a 1.3% gap. These figures show the RX 7650 GRE clustering tightly around a performance tier defined by those four NVIDIA parts, with differences under two percentage points in every case.

The Z2 A GPU, with no benchmark data, cannot be placed on this scale. Its 50th percentile rank reflects a default position rather than a measured outcome, and its average score of 0 means the database treats it as an unmeasured entry. Consequently, any comparative statement between these two products must rely on architectural and specification differences rather than observed performance outcomes.

The Verdict

From the data alone, the AMD Radeon RX 7650 GRE is the only product of the two with measurable graphics performance. Its 22.08 TFLOPS FP32 throughput, 288.0 GB/s memory bandwidth, and 8 GB GDDR6 on a 128-bit bus position it as a discrete graphics solution with substantial compute capability. The 83rd percentile ranking and the near-parity with the RTX 4070 SUPER, Quadro M6000 24 GB, RTX 5050 Mobile, and Quadro M6000 confirm that it operates in a competitive mid-to-high performance segment.

The AMD Ryzen Z2 A GPU, built on the Van Gogh chip with RDNA 2.0 architecture, delivers 1.638 TFLOPS FP32 and 102.4 GB/s memory bandwidth from 16 GB LPDDR5. These specifications indicate a fundamentally different class of device, one oriented toward low-power integrated graphics rather than discrete rendering workloads. Its 15 W TDP versus the RX 7650 GRE's 170 W TDP underscores this divergence, as does its single USB Type-C display output against the RX 7650 GRE's HDMI 2.1a and three DisplayPort 2.1 outputs.

Users seeking a standalone graphics card for desktop rendering should favor the RX 7650 GRE, as it has verified results and a clear performance standing. Users working with the Z2 A GPU's integrated solution should note that no benchmark data exists to validate any performance claims, and its 50th percentile rank is an artifact of missing measurements rather than a meaningful score. The database currently supports only one conclusion: the RX 7650 GRE is a measured, competitive GPU, while the Z2 A GPU remains an unquantified entry.

Specification Differences

The two products diverge across nearly every measurable specification. The RX 7650 GRE uses the Navi 33 chip on a 6 nm TSMC process, while the Z2 A GPU uses the Van Gogh chip on a 7 nm TSMC process. Transistor counts differ sharply: 13,300 million for the RX 7650 GRE versus 2,400 million for the Z2 A GPU. Die size also varies, with the RX 7650 GRE at 204 mm² and the Z2 A GPU at 163 mm², yielding transistor densities of 65.2M / mm² and 14.7M / mm², respectively.

Clock speeds show the RX 7650 GRE running at a 1720 MHz base and 2695 MHz boost, with a game clock of 2350 MHz. The Z2 A GPU runs at a 1000 MHz base and 1600 MHz boost. Memory clocks are 2250 MHz (18 Gbps effective) for the RX 7650 GRE and 800 MHz (6.4 Gbps effective) for the Z2 A GPU.

Memory configurations differ entirely: the RX 7650 GRE has 8 GB GDDR6 with a 128-bit bus and 288.0 GB/s bandwidth, whereas the Z2 A GPU has 16 GB LPDDR5 with a 128-bit bus and 102.4 GB/s bandwidth. Shading units number 2,048 for the RX 7650 GRE against 512 for the Z2 A GPU. Texture mapping units are 128 versus 32, and render output units are 64 versus 16. Ray tracing cores count 32 for the RX 7650 GRE and 8 for the Z2 A GPU.

Pixel and texture rates reflect the compute gap: the RX 7650 GRE achieves 172.5 GPixel/s and 345.0 GTexel/s, while the Z2 A GPU achieves 25.60 GPixel/s and 51.20 GTexel/s. FP32 throughput is 22.08 TFLOPS for the RX 7650 GRE and 1.638 TFLOPS for the Z2 A GPU. FP16 rates are 22.08 TFLOPS (1:1) for the RX 7650 GRE and 3.277 TFLOPS (2:1) for the Z2 A GPU.

Power and physical attributes also differ. The RX 7650 GRE has a 170 W TDP, a dual-slot form factor, a single 8-pin power connector, and a suggested PSU of 450 W. The Z2 A GPU has a 15 W TDP and no listed slot width, power connector, or suggested PSU. The RX 7650 GRE uses PCIe 4.0 x8, while the Z2 A GPU lists no bus interface. Display outputs are 1x HDMI 2.1a and 3x DisplayPort 2.1 for the RX 7650 GRE, versus 1x USB Type-C for the Z2 A GPU. Dimensions exist only for the RX 7650 GRE: 204 mm length and 115 mm height.

Architecture Differences

The RX 7650 GRE belongs to the Radeon RX 7000 series and the Navi III generation, with the codename Hotpink Bonefish. Its architecture is RDNA 3.0. The Z2 A GPU belongs to the Console GPU generation, uses the Van Gogh chip, and employs RDNA 2.0 architecture. No codename is listed for the Z2 A GPU.

The RX 7650 GRE's RDNA 3.0 architecture delivers FP32 and FP16 throughput at a 1:1 ratio, both at 22.08 TFLOPS. The Z2 A GPU's RDNA 2.0 architecture provides FP32 at 1.638 TFLOPS and FP16 at 3.277 TFLOPS, a 2:1 ratio that indicates different compute path design. Ray tracing hardware exists in both, with 32 RT cores in the RX 7650 GRE and 8 in the Z2 A GPU. Neither product lists tensor cores.

Transistor density highlights the architectural leap: the RX 7650 GRE packs 65.2 million transistors per square millimeter on 6 nm, while the Z2 A GPU fits 14.7 million per square millimeter on 7 nm. The RX 7650 GRE has a predecessor (Navi II) and successor (Navi IV), while the Z2 A GPU lists neither. The RX 7650 GRE was released on February 6, 2025, with a launch MSRP of 279 USD. The Z2 A GPU's release date is December 31, 2024, with no MSRP recorded.

Both products share the same API support, including DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4. Both are manufactured by AMD at TSMC, and both have active production status. The architectural differences, however, position the RX 7650 GRE as a modern discrete graphics solution and the Z2 A GPU as a compact, low-power integrated part, with the former's RDNA 3.0 design enabling far higher throughput per watt and per square millimeter.
