AMD Radeon RX 7900 GRE vs NVIDIA GeForce MX570 Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The only direct benchmark shared between the NVIDIA GeForce MX570 and the AMD Radeon RX 7900 GRE is Geekbench OpenCL, and the result is decisive. The AMD Radeon RX 7900 GRE scores 175,758 points, while the NVIDIA GeForce MX570 scores 38,299 points. That is a delta of 78.2% in favor of the AMD part, meaning the RX 7900 GRE delivers roughly four and a half times the OpenCL compute throughput of the MX570.

Looking at the recorded data, the MX570's OpenCL score places it in the 81st percentile among all GPUs in the database, with an average benchmark score of 38,299. Its nearest rivals are tightly clustered: the GeForce RTX 5080 Mobile scores 38,349, a mere 0.1% advantage, and the GeForce RTX 4080 Mobile scores 38,135, putting the MX570 0.4% ahead. The MX570 A variant scores 38,691, which is 1% higher, and the AMD Radeon Pro 580X scores 38,706, also 1.1% higher. These deltas are marginal, indicating that the MX570 sits in a performance band where scores differ by less than 1.5% across four comparable products. The MX570 is not a standout in its own tier, but it is remarkably consistent with its immediate competition.

The RX 7900 GRE, by contrast, occupies a much higher absolute performance level. Its Geekbench OpenCL score of 175,758 is nearly 4.6 times the MX570's result. Yet the RX 7900 GRE's overall percentile ranking is 77th, slightly lower than the MX570's 81st percentile. This is because the database's percentile reflects the full distribution of all GPUs, and the RX 7900 GRE's average benchmark score of 32,456 is dragged down by its other benchmark results, which include lower scores in several Passmark tests. Its nearest rivals are the AMD FirePro S10000 at 32,388 (0.2% lower), the AMD FirePro S9300 X2 at 32,540 (0.3% higher), the AMD Radeon RX 590 GME at 32,601 (0.4% higher), and the AMD Radeon Pro 570X at 32,176 (0.9% lower). The RX 7900 GRE's average score is thus within 1% of three other AMD workstation and consumer cards, but its peak OpenCL result is far above all of them.

The head-to-head table confirms a single win for the RX 7900 GRE and zero wins for the MX570. That 78.2% delta is not a close contest; it is a generational and architectural gap. In raw compute terms, the MX570 cannot approach the RX 7900 GRE, and no other benchmark in the database pairs them directly.

Where Each One Wins

The MX570's advantage lies in its efficiency and portability profile, not in raw performance. Its 15 W TDP and integrated form factor (IGP slot width, no power connectors) make it suitable for thin-and-light systems where power draw and physical space are constrained. The 2 GB GDDR6 memory on a 64-bit bus provides 96.00 GB/s of bandwidth, which is modest but adequate for basic graphics tasks, light media playback, and older or less demanding titles. Its 2048 shading units, 64 TMUs, and 32 ROPs deliver a pixel rate of 36.96 GPixel/s and a texture rate of 73.92 GTexel/s. These figures indicate a part built for 1080p class workloads at low to medium settings, not for high-refresh or high-resolution gaming.

The RX 7900 GRE wins on every performance metric that matters for demanding workloads. Its 5120 shading units, 320 TMUs, and 160 ROPs produce a pixel rate of 359.2 GPixel/s and a texture rate of 718.4 GTexel/s, both nearly an order of magnitude higher than the MX570. The 16 GB GDDR6 memory on a 256-bit bus yields 576.0 GB/s of bandwidth, six times that of the MX570. The RX 7900 GRE also has 80 ray accelerators (RT cores) versus 16 on the MX570, and its FP32 throughput of 45.98 TFLOPS dwarfs the MX570's 4.731 TFLOPS. The RX 7900 GRE's FP16 performance doubles to 91.96 TFLOPS, while the MX570's FP16 is identical to its FP32 at 4.731 TFLOPS, indicating a 1:1 ratio versus the RX 7900 GRE's 2:1 ratio.

In terms of benchmark breadth, the RX 7900 GRE has recorded results in multiple DirectX tests (Passmark DX9 at 310, DX10 at 139, DX11 at 300, DX12 at 107), plus Passmark G2D at 1180, G3D at 27089, GPU Compute at 15016, and both Geekbench OpenCL and Vulkan at 99850. The MX570 only has a Geekbench OpenCL entry. This means the RX 7900 GRE is validated across a wider range of API workloads, while the MX570's profile is narrower.

Architecture Differences

The NVIDIA GeForce MX570 is built on the GA107S chip using the Ampere architecture, manufactured on Samsung's 8 nm process. It contains 8,700 million transistors on a 200 mm² die, yielding a transistor density of 43.5 million per mm². The chip has 2048 shading units, 64 TMUs, 32 ROPs, 16 RT cores, and 64 tensor cores. Its base clock is 832 MHz with a boost of 1155 MHz, and memory runs at 1500 MHz with 12 Gbps effective data rate. The MX570 supports PCIe 4.0 x8, has display outputs that are portable-device dependent, and its APIs include DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4.

The AMD Radeon RX 7900 GRE uses the Navi 31 chip (codename Plum Bonito) under the RDNA 3.0 architecture, fabricated on TSMC's 5 nm process. The chip packs 57,700 million transistors on a 529 mm² die, giving a density of 109.1 million per mm², more than double the MX570's density. The RX 7900 GRE has 5120 shading units, 320 TMUs, 160 ROPs, and 80 ray accelerators, but no tensor cores (the database lists null). Its base clock is 1287 MHz, boost 2245 MHz, and game clock 1880 MHz. Memory runs at 2250 MHz with 18 Gbps effective. The RX 7900 GRE uses a 256-bit bus with 16 GB GDDR6, yielding 576.0 GB/s. It connects via PCIe 4.0 x16 and offers display outputs including 1x HDMI 2.1a, 2x DisplayPort 2.1, and 1x USB Type-C. The card is a dual-slot design, 276 mm long, 110 mm tall, and 51 mm wide, requiring two 8-pin power connectors and a 600 W recommended PSU.

Architecturally, the two parts are from different eras and design philosophies. The MX570 is a low-power mobile chip (15 W TDP) intended for integrated or ultra-portable use, while the RX 7900 GRE is a high-end desktop GPU (260 W TDP) with a full-size cooler and external power. The transistor counts and process nodes reflect this: the RX 7900 GRE has 6.6 times as many transistors on a 2.6 times larger die, and the 5 nm process allows roughly 2.5 times higher density. The FP32 throughput difference is 9.7 times in favor of AMD, and the memory bandwidth difference is exactly 6 times.

The RT core counts also differ: 16 on the MX570 versus 80 on the RX 7900 GRE, a 5 times advantage. Tensor cores are present only on the NVIDIA part, but the database does not record any benchmark that exercises them for either product. The MX570's FP16 is capped at 4.731 TFLOPS, while the RX 7900 GRE reaches 91.96 TFLOPS, meaning AMD's part can process half-precision workloads at twice its single-precision rate, whereas NVIDIA's part runs them at the same rate.

The Verdict

The data is unambiguous: the AMD Radeon RX 7900 GRE outperforms the NVIDIA GeForce MX570 in every recorded benchmark category. The Geekbench OpenCL delta of 78.2% is the sole head-to-head metric, and it is a landslide. The RX 7900 GRE's 175,758 score versus the MX570's 38,299 places them in completely different performance classes. The MX570's percentile rank (81st) is slightly higher than the RX 7900 GRE's (77th), but that is an artifact of averaging across all benchmark results, not an indication of superior performance.

Who should pick the MX570? Systems that require a minimal-power, integrated-form-factor GPU with no external power connectors and a 15 W TDP. The 2 GB memory and 96 GB/s bandwidth are sufficient for basic display output, light productivity, and legacy or low-demand games. The 81st percentile standing among all GPUs suggests it is not a weak part for its niche, and its rivals (RTX 5080 Mobile, RTX 4080 Mobile, MX570 A, Radeon Pro 580X) are all within 1.1% in OpenCL, indicating a balanced competitive field at that level. The MX570 is end-of-life, released in December 2021, so it is a legacy option.

Who should pick the RX 7900 GRE? Anyone needing high-resolution or high-detail gaming, content creation, or compute workloads. The 16 GB frame buffer, 576 GB/s bandwidth, 80 RT cores, and 45.98 TFLOPS FP32 make it suitable for modern DirectX 12 Ultimate titles, ray-traced scenes, and GPU-accelerated rendering. Its 77th percentile is lower than the MX570's, but that reflects a wider benchmark suite with Passmark scores that are not directly comparable to Geekbench OpenCL. The RX 7900 GRE is active in production, launched in July 2023, and its launch MSRP is 549 USD.

The verdict is straightforward: the MX570 is a low-power mobile solution, and the RX 7900 GRE is a high-performance desktop card. They do not compete in the same market segment. The MX570's only advantage is its 15 W power envelope and integrated form factor, while the RX 7900 GRE wins on every performance metric, every memory metric, and every architectural feature that affects throughput.
