AMD Radeon RX 7650 GRE vs NVIDIA RTX 1000 Mobile Ada Generation Comparison

Where Each One Wins

The benchmark data splits these two GPUs into entirely different performance classes. The AMD Radeon RX 7650 GRE holds a percentile ranking of 83 against all GPUs in the database, while the NVIDIA RTX 1000 Mobile Ada Generation sits at percentile 50. That 33-percentile gap places the AMD part firmly in the upper tier of recorded graphics hardware, whereas the NVIDIA mobile chip lands exactly at the midpoint of all tracked GPUs.

The RX 7650 GRE produces an average benchmark score of 42,723 across its recorded tests. The RTX 1000 Mobile Ada Generation, by contrast, has no recorded benchmark entries in the database, leaving its average score at zero. The AMD card therefore holds every measurable performance win in the current dataset. Its nearest rivals in the database are the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER at 43,223 average score, the NVIDIA Quadro M6000 24 GB at 43,262, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050 Mobile at 43,268, and the NVIDIA Quadro M6000 at 43,301. The RX 7650 GRE trails each of those by only 1.2% to 1.3%, indicating it sits just below a cluster of very strong desktop and mobile parts.

The use-case split is straightforward from the recorded data. The RX 7650 GRE is a desktop card with a 170 W TDP, a dual-slot cooler, and a single 8-pin power connector. It is designed for full-size cases with a 450 W suggested power supply. The RTX 1000 Mobile Ada Generation is an integrated graphics processor with a 35 W TDP, no power connector, and no slot width, meaning it is soldered into laptops and relies entirely on the host system's thermal and power delivery. The AMD card targets stationary desktop builds; the NVIDIA chip targets portable systems where power draw is the dominant constraint.

The AMD card's 83rd percentile ranking means it outperforms roughly five out of every six GPUs in the database. The NVIDIA mobile part's 50th percentile means it sits exactly at the median, outperforming half of all recorded GPUs. The performance class separation is therefore not subtle: one is a high-tier desktop part, the other is a mid-tier mobile chip.

Architecture Differences

The two GPUs come from different manufacturers and different architectural generations. AMD uses RDNA 3.0, built on the Navi 33 chip with the codename Hotpink Bonefish. NVIDIA uses Ada Lovelace, built on the AD107 chip. The AMD part belongs to the Navi III (RX 7000) generation, while the NVIDIA part belongs to the Ada-MW (x000A) generation.

The manufacturing process differs. AMD fabricates the RX 7650 GRE on a 6 nm TSMC node. NVIDIA uses a 5 nm TSMC node for the RTX 1000 Mobile Ada Generation. Despite the smaller node, NVIDIA's chip packs more transistors: 18,900 million versus 13,300 million for AMD. However, AMD's die is larger at 204 mm² versus 159 mm² for NVIDIA. The transistor density numbers reflect this: NVIDIA achieves 118.9 million transistors per mm², while AMD reaches 65.2 million per mm². The 5 nm node gives NVIDIA a density advantage of roughly 82% over AMD's 6 nm part.

The compute arrays are structured differently. AMD fields 2,048 shading units, 128 texture mapping units, 64 render output units, and 32 ray tracing cores. NVIDIA counters with 2,560 shading units, 80 texture mapping units, 48 render output units, 20 ray tracing cores, and 80 tensor cores. AMD has fewer shaders but more TMUs and ROPs. NVIDIA has more shaders plus a dedicated tensor core array, which AMD lacks entirely in its specification sheet. The RTX 1000 Mobile Ada Generation therefore includes hardware for AI-accelerated workloads, while the RX 7650 GRE specification lists no tensor core equivalent.

Clock behavior also differs. The RX 7650 GRE runs at a 1720 MHz base clock and boosts to 2695 MHz, with a separate game clock of 2350 MHz. The RTX 1000 Mobile Ada Generation runs at 1485 MHz base and 2025 MHz boost. AMD's boost clock is 670 MHz higher, a 33% advantage over NVIDIA's boost. That clock advantage, combined with the wider memory bus and higher power envelope, explains why the AMD part delivers roughly double the raw throughput in several measured metrics.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The head-to-head benchmark table in the database is empty. No direct comparison tests were recorded between the AMD Radeon RX 7650 GRE and the NVIDIA RTX 1000 Mobile Ada Generation. However, the individual benchmark entries for the AMD card still provide a partial picture. The RX 7650 GRE scored 2,336 in the 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 test and 83,109 in Geekbench OpenCL. The NVIDIA part has no entries in either test.

The absence of recorded NVIDIA scores prevents a direct per-test delta calculation. The available data instead comes from aggregate statistics. The AMD card's average benchmark score of 42,723 places it at the 83rd percentile. The NVIDIA card's average score is zero because no benchmarks were recorded, and its percentile is 50. The database therefore shows a decisive overall performance separation, even without a formal head-to-head table.

The nearest rival data for the RX 7650 GRE provides context for its performance tier. The AMD card averages 1.2% below the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER, 1.2% below the NVIDIA Quadro M6000 24 GB, 1.3% below the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050 Mobile, and 1.3% below the NVIDIA Quadro M6000. These deltas are small enough that the RX 7650 GRE effectively trades blows with those parts in aggregate scoring. The RTX 1000 Mobile Ada Generation has no nearest rival data in the database, so no comparable positioning exists.

The RX 7650 GRE's raw throughput numbers reinforce its advantage. It delivers 22.08 TFLOPS of FP32 compute and the same 22.08 TFLOPS for FP16, both at a 1:1 ratio. The NVIDIA mobile chip delivers 10.37 TFLOPS for both FP32 and FP16. AMD's pixel rate is 172.5 GPixel/s versus 97.20 GPixel/s for NVIDIA, a 77% advantage. AMD's texture rate is 345.0 GTexel/s versus 162.0 GTexel/s, a 113% advantage. Memory bandwidth is 288.0 GB/s versus 192.0 GB/s, a 50% advantage.

Specification Differences

The two GPUs differ across nearly every major specification field. Memory capacity: AMD uses 8 GB of GDDR6, NVIDIA uses 6 GB of GDDR6. Memory bus width: AMD uses 128 bit, NVIDIA uses 96 bit. Memory bandwidth: AMD reaches 288.0 GB/s, NVIDIA reaches 192.0 GB/s. The AMD card's memory clock runs at 2250 MHz with 18 Gbps effective, while NVIDIA's runs at 2000 MHz with 16 Gbps effective.

Compute resources diverge sharply. AMD has 2,048 shading units, 128 TMUs, 64 ROPs, and 32 ray tracing cores. NVIDIA has 2,560 shading units, 80 TMUs, 48 ROPs, 20 ray tracing cores, and 80 tensor cores. The shading unit count favors NVIDIA by 25%, but the TMU count favors AMD by 60%, and the ROP count favors AMD by 33%. NVIDIA's tensor cores have no counterpart in AMD's specification list.

Rates and throughput favor AMD decisively. Pixel rate: 172.5 GPixel/s versus 97.20 GPixel/s. Texture rate: 345.0 GTexel/s versus 162.0 GTexel/s. FP32 compute: 22.08 TFLOPS versus 10.37 TFLOPS. FP16 compute: 22.08 TFLOPS versus 10.37 TFLOPS. In every measured throughput category, the AMD card is at least 77% faster and in some cases more than double.

Power and physical specifications also diverge. AMD's TDP is 170 W, NVIDIA's is 35 W. AMD uses a dual-slot cooler with a single 8-pin power connector and a 450 W suggested power supply. NVIDIA is an integrated graphics processor with no slot width, no power connector, and no suggested PSU. The AMD card measures 204 mm in length and 115 mm in height. NVIDIA has no recorded dimensions. AMD uses a 1x HDMI 2.1a and 3x DisplayPort 2.1 output configuration, while NVIDIA's display outputs are marked as portable device dependent.

Process node: AMD uses 6 nm TSMC, NVIDIA uses 5 nm TSMC. Transistor count: 13,300 million versus 18,900 million. Die size: 204 mm² versus 159 mm². Transistor density: 65.2 million per mm² versus 118.9 million per mm². The API support is identical: both list DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4. The bus interface is also identical: PCIe 4.0 x8 for both.

Release timing differs by roughly one year. The NVIDIA RTX 1000 Mobile Ada Generation was released on 2024-02-25. The AMD Radeon RX 7650 GRE followed on 2025-02-06. AMD lists a launch MSRP of 279 USD, while NVIDIA's entry has no launch MSRP recorded. Production status for both is active. The AMD card has a predecessor in Navi II and a successor in Navi IV. The NVIDIA card's predecessor is Ampere-MW and its successor is Blackwell-MW.

The Verdict

The data separates these two GPUs by performance class, power envelope, and intended use. The AMD Radeon RX 7650 GRE is the clear performance leader in every recorded metric. It holds the 83rd percentile ranking, an average score of 42,723, and it sits within 1.3% of a cluster of strong desktop and mobile GPUs like the GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER and the RTX 5050 Mobile. Its 22.08 TFLOPS FP32 throughput, 288.0 GB/s memory bandwidth, and 8 GB frame buffer make it suitable for demanding desktop workloads.

The NVIDIA RTX 1000 Mobile Ada Generation occupies a different position entirely. Its 50th percentile ranking places it at the median of all GPUs in the database. Its 35 W TDP, 6 GB frame buffer, and 192.0 GB/s bandwidth reflect a design goal of fitting into thin laptops with no discrete power connector. Its 10.37 TFLOPS FP32 compute is roughly half of AMD's, and its 97.20 GPixel/s pixel rate is well below AMD's 172.5 GPixel/s.

Who should pick which comes down to the form factor and power budget. The RX 7650 GRE is the choice for a desktop system with a 450 W power supply, a dual-slot cooler, and an 8-pin connector. The RTX 1000 Mobile Ada Generation is the choice for a portable system that cannot accommodate a discrete GPU. The data does not show any scenario where the NVIDIA part outperforms the AMD part in raw throughput. The NVIDIA chip's advantages are its 5 nm process, higher transistor density, tensor cores, and dramatically lower power draw. Those advantages matter for mobile deployments and AI workloads, but the recorded benchmark and specification data show the AMD card as the stronger general-purpose graphics processor.
