GPU Comparison

The Verdict

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti is the decisive winner across every recorded benchmark comparison. The data shows no contest: the RTX 5070 Ti outperforms the CMP 30HX by 69.3% in Geekbench OpenCL and by 72.2% in Geekbench Vulkan. For any workload captured in the database, the RTX 5070 Ti is the only rational choice.

The CMP 30HX, however, is not without its niche. It holds an 89th percentile ranking among all GPUs in the database, while the RTX 5070 Ti sits at the 86th percentile. This means the CMP 30HX sits in a slightly higher overall percentile position, though its average benchmark score of 63,842 is well below the RTX 5070 Ti's 49,957 average. The percentile discrepancy reflects the distribution of scores across the database, not a performance advantage.

Buyers should pick the RTX 5070 Ti for essentially any compute or graphics task. The CMP 30HX is an end-of-life mining product with no display outputs, making it unsuitable for conventional desktop use. The RTX 5070 Ti is an active product with full display connectivity, a modern feature set, and a dramatically higher performance ceiling. The verdict is straightforward: the RTX 5070 Ti is the superior part by every measured metric.

Architecture Differences

The two GPUs come from completely different architectural generations and manufacturing processes. The CMP 30HX is built on the Turing architecture using the TU116 chip, fabricated on TSMC's 12 nm process. It packs 6,600 million transistors onto a 284 mm² die, yielding a transistor density of 23.2 million per square millimeter. The RTX 5070 Ti uses the Blackwell 2.0 architecture with the GB203 chip, manufactured on TSMC's 5 nm process. This newer chip contains 45,600 million transistors on a 378 mm² die, for a density of 120.6 million per square millimeter. The density difference is stark: the RTX 5070 Ti crams over five times more transistors per area.

The compute resources are equally lopsided. The CMP 30HX has 1,408 shading units, 88 texture mapping units, and 48 ROPs. The RTX 5070 Ti fields 8,960 shading units, 280 TMUs, and 96 ROPs. The RTX 5070 Ti also includes 70 ray tracing cores and 280 tensor cores, while the CMP 30HX has none of either. The CMP 30HX lacks hardware ray tracing and tensor acceleration entirely, reflecting its mining-focused design.

Clock speeds differ substantially. The CMP 30HX runs at a 1530 MHz base and 1785 MHz boost. The RTX 5070 Ti boosts from a 2295 MHz base up to 2452 MHz. Memory technology also diverges: the CMP 30HX uses 6 GB of GDDR6 on a 192-bit bus, while the RTX 5070 Ti uses 16 GB of GDDR7 on a 256-bit bus. Memory bandwidth jumps from 336.0 GB/s to 896.0 GB/s, a nearly threefold increase.

The bus interface tells an interesting story. The CMP 30HX lists a PCIe 1.0 x4 interface, which is an unusual specification for a 2021 product, while the RTX 5070 Ti uses PCIe 5.0 x16. The CMP 30HX has no display outputs, whereas the RTX 5070 Ti provides one HDMI 2.1b port and three DisplayPort 2.1b outputs. API support also differs: the CMP 30HX supports DirectX 12 (12_1), while the RTX 5070 Ti supports DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), along with OpenGL 4.6 and Vulkan 1.4 on both.

Where Each One Wins

The RTX 5070 Ti wins every recorded benchmark comparison. In Geekbench OpenCL, it scores 212,363 against the CMP 30HX's 65,199, a 69.3% advantage. In Geekbench Vulkan, it scores 225,122 against 62,484, a 72.2% lead. The database records zero wins for the CMP 30HX in head-to-head comparisons.

The CMP 30HX does hold a percentile edge. At the 89th percentile among all GPUs, it ranks above the RTX 5070 Ti's 86th percentile. This is a statistical quirk of the database's GPU distribution, but it means the CMP 30HX sits higher in the overall ranking despite losing every direct comparison. Its average benchmark score of 63,842 is also higher than the RTX 5070 Ti's 49,957, though this average includes a broader set of tests with different scaling characteristics.

For real-world usage, the RTX 5070 Ti is the clear pick for any task requiring modern graphics, ray tracing, tensor compute, or display output. The CMP 30HX, with no outputs and no RT or tensor hardware, is limited to raw compute workloads. Its nearest rivals in the database are AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT LP (average score 63,830, 0% delta), AMD Radeon RX 7600M (63,775, 0.1% delta), AMD Radeon Pro Vega 56 (63,693, 0.2% delta), and AMD Radeon Pro WX 9100 (64,212, -0.6% delta). These deltas show the CMP 30HX sits in a tight pack with those cards.

The RTX 5070 Ti's nearest rivals paint a different picture. It trades blows with AMD Radeon RX Vega 64 (average score 50,001, -0.1% delta), sits ahead of Intel Arc A550M (49,737, 0.4% delta), trails AMD Radeon RX 6900 XT (50,951, -2% delta), and leads AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT (48,477, 3.1% delta). The RTX 5070 Ti's average score places it among high-end cards from the previous generation, despite the fact that its individual benchmark scores are far higher than its average suggests.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The database records two head-to-head benchmark comparisons between these GPUs, and the RTX 5070 Ti dominates both.

In Geekbench OpenCL, the RTX 5070 Ti scores 212,363 against the CMP 30HX's 65,199. The delta is -69.3% from the perspective of the CMP 30HX, meaning the RTX 5070 Ti is more than three times as fast. This test exercises general-purpose compute across the GPU's shader array, and the RTX 5070 Ti's 8,960 shading units overwhelm the CMP 30HX's 1,408.

In Geekbench Vulkan, the gap widens slightly. The RTX 5070 Ti scores 225,122 versus 62,484, a 72.2% delta. The Vulkan test benefits from the RTX 5070 Ti's modern architecture, higher clock speeds, and substantially larger memory bandwidth. The CMP 30HX's PCIe 1.0 x4 interface may also be a bottleneck in this workload, though the database does not quantify that effect.

The CMP 30HX's individual benchmark scores are 65,199 in OpenCL and 62,484 in Vulkan. These are respectable numbers for a Turing-era mining card, and they place it at the 89th percentile overall. But the RTX 5070 Ti's scores are in a different class entirely. Its OpenCL score of 212,363 and Vulkan score of 225,122 are roughly 3.3 and 3.6 times higher, respectively.

The RTX 5070 Ti also has additional benchmark entries in the database beyond the head-to-head tests. It records scores in 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 (6,604), PassMark DirectX 10 (192), DirectX 11 (300), DirectX 12 (127), DirectX 9 (351), G2D (1,332), G3D (32,974), and GPU Compute (20,203). The CMP 30HX has no entries in these tests, so no direct comparison is possible. The RTX 5070 Ti's PassMark G3D score of 32,974 and compute score of 20,203 indicate strong DirectX and compute performance, though these numbers cannot be compared to the CMP 30HX.

The delta percentages in the head-to-head table are unambiguous. The CMP 30HX loses both tests by margins exceeding 69%. No recorded workload favors the older card. The verdict from the benchmark data is absolute: the RTX 5070 Ti is the faster GPU in every measurable way.
