Analysis: AMD Ryzen Z2 Extreme GPU vs NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti SUPER
Head-to-Head Benchmarks
The recorded data contains one direct benchmark comparison between these two processors. In the 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 test, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti SUPER scores 6269.5 points, while the AMD Ryzen Z2 Extreme GPU scores 516 points. This represents a delta of 91.8 percent, with the NVIDIA part delivering a score approximately 12 times higher than the AMD processor. The benchmark result is unambiguous: the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti SUPER wins the sole head-to-head test in the database.
The AMD Ryzen Z2 Extreme GPU sits at the 1st percentile among all GPUs in the database, meaning it outperforms only about one percent of recorded graphics processors. Its average benchmark score is 516 points. The nearest rivals in the database for the AMD part include the Intel HD Graphics P4000 with an average score of 534, a 3.4 percent advantage over the Ryzen Z2 Extreme GPU, and the AMD Radeon HD 6870 with an average score of 536, a 3.7 percent advantage. The AMD Radeon HD 6750M scores 484, which is 6.6 percent slower than the Ryzen Z2 Extreme GPU, while the AMD Radeon HD 6770M scores 569, a 9.3 percent advantage over the Ryzen Z2 part. These close margins place the Ryzen Z2 Extreme GPU in a performance tier that is competitive with older discrete desktop GPUs from roughly a decade ago, but it is nowhere near modern high-end graphics hardware.
The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti SUPER sits at the 36th percentile among all GPUs, with an average benchmark score of 6270 points. Its nearest rival is the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER AD102, which scores exactly 6270 points, a delta of 0 percent. The NVIDIA Quadro K620 scores 6282 points, 0.2 percent lower than the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER. The AMD FirePro W600 scores 6223 points, 0.8 percent lower, and the AMD Radeon R7 M350 scores 6327 points, 0.9 percent lower. The data indicates the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER performs in a tight band around its nearest competitors, with all deltas under one percent. This suggests the NVIDIA part has effectively matched the performance level of the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER AD102, despite being a different chip generation.
The absolute score gap between the two processors is stark. The RTX 5070 Ti SUPER produces a Steel Nomad score that is 5753.5 points higher than the Ryzen Z2 Extreme GPU. Even accounting for the different market segments these products target, the performance differential in this workload is substantial. The AMD processor's score of 516 places it in territory where even the Intel HD Graphics P4000, a product with far less ambitious specifications, manages to outpace it.
Where Each One Wins
The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti SUPER wins the only recorded benchmark test, so the win tally stands at one for NVIDIA and zero for AMD. The RTX 5070 Ti SUPER demonstrates a clear advantage in the 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 workload, which stresses modern DirectX 12 rendering features. The AMD Ryzen Z2 Extreme GPU has no benchmark wins recorded in the database.
For use cases that rely on raw GPU throughput in DirectX 12 titles, the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER is the clear choice based on the measured data. The NVIDIA part delivers 43.94 TFLOPS of FP32 compute and 43.94 TFLOPS of FP16 compute, while the AMD part delivers 5.530 TFLOPS in both FP32 and FP16. The NVIDIA part also provides 686.6 GTexel/s of texture fill rate versus 172.8 GTexel/s for the AMD part, and 235.4 GPixel/s of pixel fill rate versus 129.6 GPixel/s. These raw throughput metrics align with the benchmark outcome, indicating that the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER is designed to handle heavy graphics workloads.
The AMD Ryzen Z2 Extreme GPU, with its 28 W TDP and 16 GB of LPDDR5X memory, appears oriented toward low-power mobile or handheld scenarios. Its 128.0 GB/s memory bandwidth is far below the 896.0 GB/s available on the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER, and its 128-bit memory bus is half the width of the NVIDIA part's 256-bit bus. In workloads that are bandwidth-limited, the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER will have a substantial advantage. The AMD part's 16 ray tracing cores and 64 texture mapping units are 70 and 280 respectively on the NVIDIA part, so ray-traced scenes and texture-heavy rendering will favor the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER significantly.
The RTX 5070 Ti SUPER also supports PCIe 5.0 x16 connectivity, while the database does not list a bus interface for the AMD part. This interface difference matters for systems where the GPU is the primary discrete accelerator. The NVIDIA part includes a dual-slot cooling solution and a single 16-pin power connector, indicating it is designed for full desktop installation, whereas the AMD part has no power connectors listed, consistent with a processor-integrated GPU design.
Architecture Differences
The AMD Ryzen Z2 Extreme GPU uses the Strix Point chip, built on a 4 nm process at TSMC with RDNA 3.5 architecture. It belongs to the Console GPU generation from AMD. The chip contains 34,000 million transistors on a 233 mm² die, yielding a transistor density of 145.9 million per square millimeter. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti SUPER uses the GB203 chip, built on a 5 nm process at TSMC with Blackwell 2.0 architecture. It belongs to the GeForce 50 generation. The GB203 die contains 45,600 million transistors on a 378 mm² die, giving a transistor density of 120.6 million per square millimeter. The AMD chip has a higher transistor density due to the smaller 4 nm node, but the NVIDIA chip packs more total transistors on a larger die.
The AMD part's base clock is 800 MHz with a boost clock of 2700 MHz. The NVIDIA part's base clock is 2295 MHz with a boost clock of 2452 MHz. Despite the lower base clock, the AMD boost clock is actually higher than the NVIDIA boost clock, but the NVIDIA part compensates with far more execution resources. The AMD processor has 1024 shading units, 64 texture mapping units, and 48 render output units. The NVIDIA processor has 8960 shading units, 280 texture mapping units, and 96 render output units. This represents a 8.75 times difference in shading units and a 4.375 times difference in TMUs. The NVIDIA part also includes 70 ray tracing cores and 280 tensor cores. The AMD part has 16 ray tracing cores and no tensor cores listed in the database.
Memory architecture differs substantially. The AMD part uses 16 GB of LPDDR5X memory with a 128-bit bus and 128.0 GB/s bandwidth. The NVIDIA part uses 16 GB of GDDR7 memory with a 256-bit bus and 896.0 GB/s bandwidth. The memory clock on the AMD part is 1000 MHz with 8 Gbps effective data rate, while the NVIDIA part runs at 1750 MHz with 28 Gbps effective. The NVIDIA memory bandwidth is exactly 7 times higher than the AMD bandwidth. Both processors support DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4, so API feature parity exists.
Power requirements diverge sharply. The AMD part has a TDP of 28 W and no power connectors, making it suitable for low-power devices. The NVIDIA part has a TDP of 350 W and requires a single 16-pin power connector. The NVIDIA part is a dual-slot card measuring 304 mm in length, 137 mm in height, and 48 mm in width. The AMD part has no physical dimensions listed in the database, consistent with an integrated solution. Display outputs also differ: the AMD part has a single USB Type-C output, while the NVIDIA part has 1x HDMI 2.1b and 3x DisplayPort 2.1b outputs.
