Analysis: AMD Radeon RX 7600M XT vs NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti SUPER
Head-to-Head Benchmarks
The database contains a single common benchmark for these two mobile and desktop GPUs: 3DMark Steel Nomad (DX12). The results show a decisive NVIDIA victory. The AMD Radeon RX 7600M XT scores 2048 points, while the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti SUPER scores 6269.5 points. This represents a delta of -67.3% for the AMD part, meaning the NVIDIA GPU delivers roughly three times the raw DX12 performance in this workload.
The NVIDIA card wins the only head-to-head comparison, giving it a 1-0 record in direct benchmark matchups. The AMD part records zero wins. The magnitude of the delta is substantial enough that the two products occupy entirely different performance tiers, despite both being current-generation designs.
The 3DMark Steel Nomad test is a demanding DX12 workload that stresses modern GPU features. The score difference of 4221.5 points between the two is not a marginal gap but a full performance-class separation. The RX 7600M XT's score places it in the lower half of the GPU population, while the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER's score, though limited to this single test, indicates far higher throughput.
Where Each One Wins
The data shows a clear split in use cases. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti SUPER dominates in modern DX12 gaming workloads, as evidenced by its Steel Nomad score. Its 6269.5 points versus the RX 7600M XT's 2048 points suggests the NVIDIA card is built for high-resolution, high-refresh-rate gaming with full graphical feature sets enabled.
The AMD Radeon RX 7600M XT, despite losing the direct comparison, has a broader benchmark profile in the database. It has recorded scores across multiple tests including Geekbench OpenCL (74869), Geekbench Vulkan (27793), Passmark DirectX 9 (175), DirectX 10 (76), DirectX 11 (137), DirectX 12 (58), G2D (894), G3D (13907), and GPU Compute (7140). Its average benchmark score across all recorded tests is 12710, which places it at the 52nd percentile of all GPUs in the database.
The NVIDIA part, by contrast, has only the single Steel Nomad result recorded, with an average benchmark score of 6270 and a 36th percentile placement. This percentile figure is misleading when taken alone, as it reflects the limited test coverage rather than the card's actual capability. The RX 7600M XT's percentile is higher only because more of its scores come from legacy and compute-oriented tests where it performs relatively better.
For compute-heavy tasks such as OpenCL workloads, the AMD card shows respectable numbers. Its Geekbench OpenCL score of 74869 indicates solid general-purpose compute capability. However, the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER's 280 tensor cores and 43.94 TFLOPS FP32 throughput suggest it would outperform in AI and modern compute tasks, even though no direct compute benchmark exists in the database for the NVIDIA card.
Architecture Differences
The two GPUs come from different architectural generations and process nodes. The AMD Radeon RX 7600M XT uses the Navi 33 chip based on RDNA 3.0 architecture, codenamed Hotpink Bonefish, and belongs to the Navi Mobile (RX 7000M) generation. It is fabricated on TSMC's 6 nm process with 13,300 million transistors on a 204 mm² die, yielding a transistor density of 65.2 million per mm².
The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti SUPER uses the GB203 chip based on Blackwell 2.0 architecture from the GeForce 50 generation. It is fabricated on TSMC's 5 nm process with 45,600 million transistors on a 378 mm² die, giving a transistor density of 120.6 million per mm². The NVIDIA chip packs over three times the transistors into less than double the die area, reflecting the denser 5 nm process and the larger overall design.
Memory configurations diverge significantly. The AMD card features 8 GB of GDDR6 on a 128-bit bus, delivering 288.0 GB/s of bandwidth. The NVIDIA card offers 16 GB of GDDR7 on a 256-bit bus, delivering 896.0 GB/s. The memory clock difference is notable: the AMD card runs at 2250 MHz with 18 Gbps effective speed, while the NVIDIA card runs at 1750 MHz with 28 Gbps effective. The newer GDDR7 standard and wider bus give the NVIDIA part a 3.1 times bandwidth advantage.
Compute resources also differ dramatically. The RX 7600M XT has 2048 shading units, 128 texture mapping units, 64 ROPs, and 32 ray tracing cores. The RTX 5070 Ti SUPER has 8960 shading units, 280 TMUs, 96 ROPs, 70 RT cores, and 280 tensor cores. The shading unit count is 4.4 times higher on the NVIDIA card. The AMD part has no tensor cores, while the NVIDIA card includes 280, enabling dedicated AI acceleration.
Clock speeds tell a different story. The AMD card has a base clock of 1280 MHz and a boost clock of 2469 MHz, with a game clock of 2023 MHz. The NVIDIA card has a base clock of 2295 MHz and a boost clock of 2452 MHz. Despite similar boost clocks, the NVIDIA card's massively higher shader count gives it a much higher peak FP32 throughput of 43.94 TFLOPS versus 20.23 TFLOPS for the AMD card. The FP16 comparison is stark: the AMD card achieves 40.45 TFLOPS through a 2:1 ratio, while the NVIDIA card achieves 43.94 TFLOPS at a 1:1 ratio, indicating true native FP16 capability.
Power and physical specifications also differ. The AMD card is rated at 120 W TDP and is an IGP (integrated graphics processor) with no power connectors and slot width listed as IGP. The NVIDIA card is rated at 350 W TDP, is dual-slot, requires a single 16-pin power connector, and measures 304 mm in length, 137 mm in height, and 48 mm in width. The bus interface differs as well: the AMD card uses PCIe 4.0 x16 while the NVIDIA card uses PCIe 5.0 x16.

A: The AMD Navi 33 chip has 13,300 million transistors on a 204 mm² die, yielding 65.2 million transistors per mm². The NVIDIA GB203 chip has 45,600 million transistors on a 378 mm² die, yielding 120.6 million transistors per mm², nearly double the density.
The Verdict
The benchmark data clearly favors the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti SUPER for modern DX12 gaming and high-performance workloads. Its 6269.5 Steel Nomad score versus the AMD card's 2048 demonstrates a performance gap that cannot be bridged by any other measured metric. The NVIDIA card also offers double the memory capacity (16 GB versus 8 GB), over three times the bandwidth (896.0 GB/s versus 288.0 GB/s), and 4.4 times the shading units (8960 versus 2048). Its 280 tensor cores provide AI acceleration capabilities that the AMD card entirely lacks.
The AMD Radeon RX 7600M XT remains relevant for its own niche. Its 120 W TDP and IGP form factor make it suitable for compact or power-constrained systems. Its average benchmark score of 12710 across multiple tests shows balanced performance across legacy DirectX versions and compute workloads. The 52nd percentile placement indicates it sits near the middle of the GPU performance distribution, while the NVIDIA card's 36th percentile reflects its incomplete test coverage rather than its true ranking.
The nearest rivals in the database support this interpretation. The AMD card's closest competitors by average score include the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 670 (delta -0.5%), NVIDIA Tesla K20Xm (delta 0.7%), NVIDIA GeForce GTX 590 (delta -0.9%), and AMD Radeon Pro 455 (delta -0.9%). These are all older, lower-tier products. The NVIDIA card's nearest rivals include the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER AD102 (delta 0%), NVIDIA Quadro K620 (delta -0.2%), AMD FirePro W600 (delta 0.8%), and AMD Radeon R7 M350 (delta -0.9%). The RTX 4070 Ti SUPER AD102 matching the RTX 5070 Ti SUPER's score exactly suggests the new card performs at a similar level to the previous generation's high-end offering.
For users who need maximum gaming performance, ray tracing capability, and AI acceleration, the data points squarely to the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti SUPER. For users who need a low-power, integrated solution with broad legacy benchmark compatibility, the AMD Radeon RX 7600M XT remains a viable option. The launch MSRP for the NVIDIA card is 749 USD, while the AMD card has no recorded launch price.
