AMD Ryzen Z2 Go GPU vs NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti SUPER Comparison

The Verdict

The AMD Ryzen Z2 Go GPU and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti SUPER occupy completely different segments of the graphics hardware spectrum. The recorded data shows a 50th percentile standing for the AMD part against all GPUs, while the NVIDIA card sits at the 36th percentile in the same database ranking. These are not competing products for the same buyer; they serve distinct build philosophies.

The RTX 5070 Ti SUPER is the obvious pick for a desktop workstation or high-end gaming rig where maximum compute throughput is the goal. Its benchmark result of 6269.5 in 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 demonstrates a class of performance that the AMD part cannot approach. The Ryzen Z2 Go GPU, with its 28 W power envelope and integrated-style design, belongs in a compact, low-power system where physical footprint and heat output matter more than raw frame rates.

For builders assembling a small-form-factor or handheld-style machine with modest performance expectations, the Ryzen Z2 Go GPU provides a workable foundation. For anyone building a full-size desktop with a 350 W graphics card and a 16-pin power connector, the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER is the only sensible choice between these two. The data simply does not support any other conclusion: one part delivers 43.94 TFLOPS of FP32 compute, the other delivers 4.147 TFLOPS.

Architecture Differences

The two GPUs come from different manufacturers, process nodes, and architectural families. The AMD Ryzen Z2 Go GPU uses the Rembrandt+ chip with RDNA 2.0 architecture, fabricated by TSMC on a 6 nm process. It packs 13,100 million transistors into a 208 mm² die, yielding a transistor density of 63.0 million per square millimeter. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti SUPER uses the GB203 chip with Blackwell 2.0 architecture, also built by TSMC but on a 5 nm process. That chip contains 45,600 million transistors on a 378 mm² die, with a density of 120.6 million per square millimeter.

The transistor counts tell a lopsided story. NVIDIA's chip holds more than three times the transistors of AMD's part, and its density advantage means those transistors are packed more tightly. The AMD part belongs to the Console GPU generation, while the NVIDIA card is part of the GeForce 50-series generation. Both support DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4, so API-level feature support is similar on paper.

Ray tracing hardware differs significantly. The AMD GPU includes 12 RT cores, while the NVIDIA card has 70 RT cores. Tensor cores appear only on the NVIDIA side, with 280 of them present. The AMD part has no tensor core count in the database. Memory architecture also diverges: the AMD GPU uses 16 GB of LPDDR5 on a 128-bit bus, while the NVIDIA card uses 16 GB of GDDR7 on a 256-bit bus. Memory bandwidth reflects this gap, with 102.4 GB/s versus 896.0 GB/s respectively.

Clock behavior differs as well. The AMD GPU has a base clock of 800 MHz and a boost clock of 2700 MHz, a large dynamic range typical of power-constrained parts. The NVIDIA card runs a base clock of 2295 MHz and a boost of 2452 MHz, a much narrower spread. The AMD memory clock is listed at 800 MHz with 6.4 Gbps effective, while the NVIDIA memory runs at 1750 MHz with 28 Gbps effective.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The database contains no direct head-to-head benchmark entries between these two GPUs, and the win count shows zero for both sides. However, the available benchmark data for the NVIDIA card provides a reference point for comparison. The RTX 5070 Ti SUPER scored 6269.5 in the 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 test, with an average benchmark score of 6270.

That score places the NVIDIA card near several rivals in the database. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER AD102 matches it exactly with an average score of 6270 and a delta of 0 percent. The AMD FirePro W600 sits slightly higher at 6223 with a delta of 0.8 percent, meaning the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER trails that card by a small margin. The NVIDIA Quadro K620 scores 6282, putting the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER 0.2 percent behind. The AMD Radeon R7 M350 leads this group at 6327, with the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER 0.9 percent behind.

The Ryzen Z2 Go GPU has no benchmark scores recorded in the database, so its performance cannot be quantified beyond its theoretical compute specifications. The FP32 throughput difference is stark: 43.94 TFLOPS for the NVIDIA card versus 4.147 TFLOPS for the AMD part, a ratio of roughly ten to one. Pixel rate and texture rate follow the same pattern. The NVIDIA GPU delivers 235.4 GPixel/s and 686.6 GTexel/s, while the AMD part manages 86.40 GPixel/s and 129.6 GTexel/s.

Where Each One Wins

The AMD Ryzen Z2 Go GPU wins in power efficiency and physical flexibility. Its 28 W TDP allows operation without any power connectors, drawing everything from the slot or board it is integrated into. The display output is a single USB Type-C port, which suits ultra-compact or embedded designs. The 6 nm process and lower transistor count also mean a smaller die at 208 mm², making it easier to fit into constrained layouts.

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti SUPER wins in every measurable performance category. Its FP32 throughput of 43.94 TFLOPS dwarfs the AMD part's 4.147 TFLOPS. The 896.0 GB/s memory bandwidth is nearly nine times the AMD figure. The 256-bit bus width doubles the AMD's 128-bit bus. The 280 TMUs and 96 ROPs far exceed the AMD's 48 TMUs and 32 ROPs. The 8960 shading units compare to 768 on the AMD side.

For compute-heavy workloads like rendering, simulation, or AI inference, the NVIDIA card's tensor cores and higher FP16 throughput (43.94 TFLOPS at 1:1 ratio versus 8.294 TFLOPS at 2:1 ratio) give it a decisive advantage. The dual-slot form factor, 304 mm length, and 16-pin power connector indicate a full-size desktop component. The PCIe 5.0 x16 interface provides high bandwidth to the host system. The three DisplayPort 2.1b outputs and one HDMI 2.1b output support multi-monitor setups.

The AMD part wins where power delivery is limited and heat dissipation is minimal. The 28 W envelope means passive or very small active cooling can handle it. The 102.4 GB/s bandwidth, while low by desktop standards, is sufficient for the 768 shading units it feeds. The 12 RT cores provide entry-level ray tracing capability. This GPU suits portable consoles, thin-and-light laptops, or embedded systems where the NVIDIA card physically cannot fit.
