GPU Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The benchmark data presents a stark contrast between these two NVIDIA offerings. The head-to-head comparison includes only two common tests, and the NVIDIA TITAN RTX wins both decisively.

In Geekbench OpenCL, the TITAN RTX delivers a score of 144,858 against the MX570 A's 39,780. That is a 72.5% difference in favor of the TITAN RTX. The MX570 A is not merely behind; it is outclassed by a wide margin in raw compute throughput. The OpenCL test stresses general-purpose GPU compute, and the TITAN RTX's larger silicon and higher power envelope translate directly into a massive advantage.

The Vulkan test tells the same story. The TITAN RTX scores 136,073, while the MX570 A manages 37,601. The delta is 72.4%, nearly identical to the OpenCL gap. Vulkan is a modern graphics API, and the TITAN RTX's advantage here suggests that it is not just compute-heavy workloads where it dominates, but also contemporary rendering paths.

What do these numbers mean in context? The MX570 A's average benchmark score across all recorded tests is 38,691, placing it in the 81st percentile of all GPUs. The TITAN RTX has an average score of 31,676, which lands in the 76th percentile. This creates an interesting paradox: the TITAN RTX wins the direct head-to-head by a huge margin, yet its overall average is lower than the MX570 A's. The explanation lies in the benchmark suites each card was subjected to. The TITAN RTX was tested across a broader range of workloads, including DirectX 9, 10, 11, and 12 tests, plus Passmark G2D and G3D. Those older API tests can drag down an average. The MX570 A was only tested in OpenCL and Vulkan, both modern, compute-oriented workloads where it performs respectably.

The nearest rival data reinforces the MX570 A's position. Its closest competitor, the AMD Radeon Pro 580X, scores 38,706, a 0% delta. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 Mobile sits at 38,349, a 0.9% gap. The NVIDIA GeForce MX570, the non-A variant, scores 38,299, a 1% difference. These are all within a hair of each other. The MX570 A is firmly in a cluster of mid-range mobile-class GPUs.

The TITAN RTX's nearest rivals are a different class entirely. The NVIDIA RTX PRO 4500 Blackwell scores 31,532, a 0.5% delta. The Intel Arc Pro A30M scores 31,894, a -0.7% delta. The NVIDIA GRID M60-1Q scores 31,220, a 1.5% delta. The NVIDIA Quadro M5000 scores 31,206, a 1.5% delta. The TITAN RTX, despite its enormous raw power, is grouped with workstation and professional cards in the database's average scoring, which pulls its percentile down.

The recorded data shows the TITAN RTX is roughly 3.6 times faster in OpenCL and 3.6 times faster in Vulkan. These are not marginal wins. They represent a generational and architectural chasm. The MX570 A, with its 2 GB memory and 64-bit bus, is built for efficiency and portability. The TITAN RTX, with 24 GB and a 384-bit bus, is built for maximum throughput. The benchmark results simply confirm what the specifications suggest.

Architecture Differences

The two GPUs come from different architectural generations. The MX570 A is built on the Ampere architecture using the GA107SB chip. The TITAN RTX uses the Turing architecture with the TU102 chip. This is a fundamental generational split. Ampere is the newer design, but it is implemented here at the low end of the product stack. Turing is the older architecture, but the TITAN RTX is the pinnacle of that generation.

The manufacturing process tells a similar story of trade-offs. The MX570 A uses an 8 nm process from Samsung. The TITAN RTX uses a 12 nm process from TSMC. The smaller node gives the MX570 A an efficiency advantage, but the TITAN RTX compensates with sheer scale. The MX570 A packs 8,700 million transistors on a 200 mm² die, yielding a transistor density of 43.5 million per square millimeter. The TITAN RTX has 18,600 million transistors on a 754 mm² die, with a density of 24.7 million per square millimeter. The MX570 A is denser, but the TITAN RTX has more than twice the total transistors and nearly four times the die area.

Ray tracing and tensor cores are present on both, but in vastly different quantities. The MX570 A has 16 ray tracing cores and 64 tensor cores. The TITAN RTX has 72 ray tracing cores and 576 tensor cores. The TITAN RTX has 4.5 times the RT cores and 9 times the tensor cores. These are the specialized units that handle ray-traced lighting and AI-accelerated workloads, and the TITAN RTX is overwhelmingly better equipped.

The shading resources follow the same pattern. The MX570 A has 2,048 shading units, 64 texture mapping units, and 32 raster output units. The TITAN RTX has 4,608 shading units, 288 TMUs, and 96 ROPs. That is 2.25 times the shaders, 4.5 times the TMUs, and 3 times the ROPs. The TITAN RTX can fill geometry and process textures at a far higher rate. The theoretical pixel rate for the MX570 A is 36.96 GPixel/s, while the TITAN RTX reaches 169.9 GPixel/s. Texture rate is 73.92 GTexel/s versus 509.8 GTexel/s.

Both support DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4. The API feature set is identical, so software compatibility is not a differentiator. The difference is purely in how fast each can execute those APIs.

Specification Differences

The memory subsystem is one of the most dramatic differentiators. The MX570 A has 2 GB of GDDR6 on a 64-bit bus, delivering 96.00 GB/s of bandwidth. The TITAN RTX has 24 GB of GDDR6 on a 384-bit bus, delivering 672.0 GB/s. That is 12 times the memory capacity and 7 times the bandwidth. Memory clock differs too: the MX570 A runs at 1500 MHz with 12 Gbps effective, while the TITAN RTX runs at 1750 MHz with 14 Gbps effective.

Clock speeds favor the TITAN RTX. The MX570 A has a base clock of 832 MHz and a boost of 1155 MHz. The TITAN RTX has a base of 1350 MHz and a boost of 1770 MHz. The TITAN RTX boosts 615 MHz higher. Floating-point performance reflects this: the MX570 A delivers 4.731 TFLOPS in FP32, while the TITAN RTX delivers 16.31 TFLOPS, a 3.4 times difference. In FP16, the MX570 A again delivers 4.731 TFLOPS at a 1:1 ratio, while the TITAN RTX hits 32.62 TFLOPS at a 2:1 ratio.

Power consumption could not be more different. The MX570 A has a TDP of 25 W and uses no power connectors, designed as an integrated graphics package (IGP). The TITAN RTX has a TDP of 280 W, requires dual 8-pin power connectors, and a suggested 600 W power supply. The TITAN RTX consumes 11.2 times the power.

Physical dimensions also differ. The MX570 A is listed as IGP slot width with no length given. The TITAN RTX is a dual-slot card measuring 267 mm in length, 116 mm in height, and 35 mm in width. The bus interface differs: PCIe 4.0 x8 for the MX570 A, PCIe 3.0 x16 for the TITAN RTX. Display outputs are portable-device dependent for the MX570 A, while the TITAN RTX offers 1x HDMI 2.0, 3x DisplayPort 1.4a, and 1x USB Type-C.

The TITAN RTX has a recorded launch MSRP of 2,499 USD. The MX570 A has no listed launch MSRP. The TITAN RTX lists its predecessor as GeForce 10 and successor as GeForce 30. The MX570 A lists no predecessor or successor.

The Verdict

The data paints an unambiguous picture. The NVIDIA TITAN RTX is the superior performer in every direct benchmark comparison. It wins Geekbench OpenCL by 72.5% and Geekbench Vulkan by 72.4%. Its raw compute resources dwarf the MX570 A: 4608 shading units versus 2048, 576 tensor cores versus 64, 72 RT cores versus 16, 24 GB versus 2 GB. Anyone who needs maximum graphics throughput, large memory capacity, or AI acceleration should choose the TITAN RTX.

The MX570 A is not without justification. It is in the 81st percentile of all GPUs, higher than the TITAN RTX's 76th. Its average benchmark score of 38,691 exceeds the TITAN RTX's 31,676. It achieves this with a 25 W power draw and no external power connectors, making it suitable for compact, power-constrained systems. It is also built on a newer 8 nm process from Samsung, whereas the TITAN RTX uses an older 12 nm TSMC node.

The choice depends on priorities. For maximum performance, the TITAN RTX is the only option. For efficiency and integration into portable devices, the MX570 A holds the edge. The TITAN RTX is a desktop behemoth that demands a 600 W power supply and dual 8-pin connectors. The MX570 A is an IGP that sips power and fits into devices where space and thermal limits are tight.

The percentile discrepancy is a caveat. The TITAN RTX's lower average score comes from being tested in a wider range of workloads, including legacy DirectX 9 through 12 APIs where its scores are modest. The MX570 A was only tested in OpenCL and Vulkan, both modern and compute-heavy. In the tests they share, the TITAN RTX wins by a landslide. The broader average does not change that.

Where Each One Wins

NVIDIA TITAN RTX wins in raw performance. Every shared benchmark goes to it by more than 70%. Its FP32 throughput of 16.31 TFLOPS is 3.4 times the MX570 A's 4.731 TFLOPS.
