AMD Ryzen Z1 GPU vs NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Mobile Comparison

Where Each One Wins

The benchmark data in this database paints a strikingly one-sided picture for the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Mobile. The AMD Ryzen Z1 GPU has no recorded benchmark scores in the database, while the RTX 5070 Ti Mobile has nine separate test results. This means the NVIDIA part wins every measured category by default, but the scale of the wins is what matters for interpretation.

The RTX 5070 Ti Mobile delivers its strongest results in compute-heavy workloads. The PassMark G3D score of 24,004 and the Geekbench OpenCL score of 143,870 show a GPU that excels in general-purpose parallel processing. The Vulkan API test reinforces this with a score of 139,213, suggesting strong cross-platform compute and graphics capability. The PassMark GPU Compute score of 10,101 further confirms that raw computational throughput is the NVIDIA part's dominant strength.

The AMD Ryzen Z1 GPU, lacking any recorded benchmark scores, cannot be placed in any comparative win category. The database lists its percentile rank at 50 among all GPUs, while the RTX 5070 Ti Mobile sits at the 80th percentile. That percentile gap indicates the NVIDIA part belongs to a substantially higher performance tier, regardless of the missing head-to-head numbers.

Breaking down the RTX 5070 Ti Mobile's wins by workload type, the DirectX 11 and DirectX 9 scores (237 and 259 respectively) suggest strong legacy API performance. The DirectX 12 score of 102 and DirectX 10 score of 151 are lower in absolute terms, but these are different test methodologies with different scales. The 2D graphics score of 981 indicates the NVIDIA part handles desktop composition and 2D acceleration tasks effectively, while the 3D score of 24,004 dominates the overall average.

The average benchmark score of 35,435 for the RTX 5070 Ti Mobile places it within a close competitive cluster. The nearest rival, the NVIDIA Quadro GV100, scores 35,520, a difference of only -0.2 percent. The AMD Radeon Pro Duo sits at 35,860 (-1.2 percent), and the NVIDIA T1000 at 36,289 (-2.4 percent). The NVIDIA A2 trails at 34,690, which is 2.1 percent behind. These narrow margins indicate that the RTX 5070 Ti Mobile is not a class leader, but rather a strong mid-to-upper performer whose scores sit within a few percentage points of several established workstation and professional GPUs.

Architecture Differences

The architectural gap between these two parts is substantial and explains much of the performance disparity. The AMD Ryzen Z1 GPU uses the RDNA 3.0 architecture, built on a 4 nm process at TSMC. The chip is named Phoenix and packs 25,390 million transistors into a 178 mm² die. The transistor density works out to 142.6 million transistors per square millimeter. This is a dense, efficient design intended for low-power integrated graphics scenarios.

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Mobile uses the Blackwell 2.0 architecture, built on a 5 nm process, also at TSMC. The GB205 chip contains 31,100 million transistors on a 263 mm² die, resulting in a lower transistor density of 118.3 million per square millimeter. The larger die and higher transistor count reflect a fundamentally different design philosophy: more silicon area dedicated to more execution units rather than maximum density.

The AMD part is classified as a Console GPU generation product, while the NVIDIA part belongs to the GeForce 50 Mobile series. The RTX 5070 Ti Mobile's predecessor is listed as the GeForce 40 Mobile, giving it a clear lineage in NVIDIA's mobile lineup. The AMD part has no predecessor or successor listed in the database.

Clock speeds tell another part of the story. The AMD Ryzen Z1 GPU runs at a 1500 MHz base clock and 2500 MHz boost clock. The RTX 5070 Ti Mobile runs at an 847 MHz base clock and 1447 MHz boost clock. Despite the AMD part's higher clocks, the NVIDIA part achieves far higher performance because it has dramatically more execution hardware. The NVIDIA GPU's memory clock runs at 1750 MHz with 28 Gbps effective speed, while the AMD part's memory runs at 800 MHz with 6.4 Gbps effective.

The feature sets differ in notable ways. Both support DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4. But the RTX 5070 Ti Mobile adds 184 tensor cores, which the AMD part lacks entirely. The NVIDIA part also has 46 RT cores versus the AMD part's 4 RT cores. The AMD part has no tensor cores listed, meaning no dedicated AI acceleration hardware. The NVIDIA part's tensor cores enable AI-accelerated features that the AMD silicon cannot match at the hardware level.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The database contains no direct head-to-head benchmark results between these two GPUs. The wins counter shows zero wins for each part in head-to-head testing. This absence of direct comparison data means the analysis must rely on the RTX 5070 Ti Mobile's absolute benchmark scores and its nearest rival comparisons.

The RTX 5070 Ti Mobile's strongest benchmark result is the Geekbench OpenCL score of 143,870. This OpenCL result indicates strong compute throughput for general-purpose workloads. The Geekbench Vulkan score of 139,213 follows closely, showing that the GPU performs nearly as well in Vulkan-based graphics and compute tasks.

The PassMark G3D score of 24,004 represents the database's 3D graphics performance measurement. This score contributes most heavily to the average benchmark score of 35,435. The PassMark GPU Compute score of 10,101 indicates substantial compute capability separate from graphics rendering.

The DirectX API scores follow an unusual pattern. The DirectX 9 score of 259 is the highest among the DirectX tests, followed by DirectX 11 at 237, DirectX 10 at 151, and DirectX 12 at 102. This pattern suggests the NVIDIA part performs relatively better on older DirectX APIs, which can reflect driver maturity or test methodology differences rather than raw architectural advantage.

The PassMark G2D score of 981 represents 2D graphics performance. This is a modest score compared to the 3D results, which is typical for GPUs that prioritize 3D acceleration.

The nearest rival comparison provides context for interpreting these scores. The RTX 5070 Ti Mobile's average of 35,435 is nearly identical to the Quadro GV100's 35,520, with a delta of only -0.2 percent. The AMD Radeon Pro Duo scores 35,860, which is 1.2 percent higher. The NVIDIA T1000 leads this group at 36,289, 2.4 percent above the RTX 5070 Ti Mobile. The NVIDIA A2 trails at 34,690, 2.1 percent below. These tight margins suggest the RTX 5070 Ti Mobile performs in a narrow band alongside professional workstation GPUs from both NVIDIA and AMD.

The percentile rankings reinforce the performance tier separation. The RTX 5070 Ti Mobile sits at the 80th percentile among all GPUs in the database, while the AMD Ryzen Z1 GPU sits at the 50th percentile. That 30-percentile gap indicates the NVIDIA part belongs to a significantly higher performance tier.

The Verdict

The recorded data shows a clear performance hierarchy. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Mobile delivers 17.04 TFLOPS of FP32 compute, 672.0 GB/s of memory bandwidth, and an average benchmark score of 35,435. The AMD Ryzen Z1 GPU delivers 2.560 TFLOPS of FP32 compute, 51.20 GB/s of memory bandwidth, and has no recorded benchmark scores. The NVIDIA part's 80th percentile ranking versus the AMD part's 50th percentile confirms the class separation.

Users requiring maximum compute throughput, high memory bandwidth, and broad API support should select the RTX 5070 Ti Mobile. Its 5,888 shading units, 184 tensor cores, and 46 RT cores provide the hardware foundation for demanding 3D workloads, AI-accelerated features, and ray-traced content. The 12 GB of GDDR7 memory with 672.0 GB/s bandwidth supports high-resolution textures and data-intensive compute tasks.

The AMD Ryzen Z1 GPU serves a fundamentally different purpose. Its 30 W TDP, 4 nm process density, and compact 178 mm² die indicate a low-power integrated solution for constrained environments. The 16 GB of LPDDR5 memory provides capacity but with limited bandwidth. The 2.560 TFLOPS of FP32 compute and 4 RT cores suit lighter workloads where power efficiency takes priority over raw performance.

The RTX 5070 Ti Mobile competes closely with professional GPUs in the database. Its average score of 35,435 sits within 2.4 percent of the NVIDIA Quadro GV100, AMD Radeon Pro Duo, NVIDIA A2, and NVIDIA T1000. This places it in a competitive segment where small percentage differences separate products.

The data does not support any performance comparison between these two GPUs in direct benchmark testing, as no head-to-head results exist. The available evidence, however, indicates the RTX 5070 Ti Mobile is the higher-performing part by substantial margins across every measurable specification. The AMD Ryzen Z1 GPU remains a capable low-power option, but the recorded data shows it operates in a completely different performance class.
