About AMD Radeon Pro Vega 64X
The AMD Radeon Pro Vega 64X is a Vega 10 part built on the GCN 5.0 architecture at GlobalFoundries' 14 nm process. It belongs to the Radeon Pro Mac (Vega Series) generation and packs 12,500 million transistors into a 495 mm² die, yielding a transistor density of 25.3M / mm². Its average benchmark score is 80611, which places it in the 93rd percentile of all GPUs in the database. The listed Geekbench results are 82656 in Metal and 78565 in OpenCL, with base and boost clocks of 1250 MHz and 1468 MHz. Production status is End-of-life, and the release date is 2019-03-18.
Power and Cooling — TDP, PSU recommendation, connector requirements
The TDP is 250 W. The suggested PSU field is null, so the FACT PACK supplies no recommended power supply size for this card. The power connector requirement is listed as None, meaning no auxiliary PCIe power connectors are specified. The slot width is classified as IGP, which is consistent with a board that is not a traditional discrete expansion card. Display outputs are Portable Device Dependent, so the physical display connection path is determined by the host device rather than by the card itself.
The bus interface is PCIe 3.0 x16. The dimension fields for length, height, and width are all null, so no physical cooler compatibility measurements are provided. The power profile is therefore defined by the 250 W TDP, the absence of power connectors, and the IGP slot width. The underlying silicon context comes from the 14 nm process, the 495 mm² die, and the 12,500 million transistor count. No other cooling specification exists in the data set, so thermal solution details cannot be derived beyond the TDP and form factor.
Who Should Consider It
This card is best considered for users who need high-resolution rendering capacity with a large local memory pool. The 16 GB HBM2 frame buffer and 512.0 GB/s bandwidth are the memory resources that matter most when textures, geometry, and compute working sets grow large. The average benchmark score of 80611 and 93rd percentile standing indicate that the card sits well above the majority of GPUs in the database, even though it trails its nearest listed rivals.
Workload API matters here. The Metal score of 82656 is higher than the OpenCL score of 78565, suggesting Metal-first applications are the more favorable environment for this hardware. OpenCL-based pipelines may not extract the same level of performance. Users who can target Metal should see better results; users tied to OpenCL should weigh the lower OpenCL score. The listed pixel rate of 93.95 GPixel/s and texture rate of 375.8 GTexel/s provide additional capacity for fill-heavy scenes, while the 12.03 TFLOPS FP32 throughput supports substantial shading work. The FPGA-style FP16 throughput of 24.05 TFLOPS (2:1) is also present for mixed-precision workloads.
Because the production status is End-of-life, this is not a forward-looking new purchase. The Portable Device Dependent output field also means the card cannot be expected to drive arbitrary desktop displays on its own. The target user is one with a compatible host platform, a Metal-centric workload, and a need for a high-capacity memory subsystem at high resolution.
Benchmark Performance
The Geekbench results are 82656 in Metal and 78565 in OpenCL. The average benchmark score is 80611. The compute configuration behind these scores includes 4096 shading units, 256 texture mapping units, and 64 ROPs. The base clock is 1250 MHz and the boost clock is 1468 MHz. Pixel fill rate is 93.95 GPixel/s, and texture fill rate is 375.8 GTexel/s.
The average score of 80611 places the Radeon Pro Vega 64X slightly below each of its four nearest rivals. Against the NVIDIA RTX 2000 Ada Generation, the delta is -1.6%. Against the AMD Radeon 8060S, the delta is -2.4%. Against the AMD Radeon PRO W6600, the delta is -3.1%. Against the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050 Mobile, the delta is -4.2%. In each case, the rival average score is higher: the RTX 2000 Ada Generation averages 81916, the Radeon 8060S averages 82555, the Radeon PRO W6600 averages 83209, and the GeForce RTX 5050 Mobile averages 84171.
The largest listed performance gap is 4.2%, which is a narrow spread for a group of GPUs at this level. The 93rd percentile standing remains notable even while the card finishes below all four specified competitors. In short, the benchmark data shows a card that is competitive with a tight cluster of modern rivals, but not the leader of that cluster.
How It Compares
NVIDIA RTX 2000 Ada Generation: This is the closest listed rival, with an average score of 81916. The Radeon Pro Vega 64X trails by 1.6%. The two cards are close enough that the test workload and API selection could plausibly determine which one comes out ahead in a given application.
AMD Radeon 8060S: The Radeon 8060S averages 82555, which is 2.4% higher than the Vega 64X's average. This is a moderate gap within the nearest-rival group, but still within a small percentage range.
AMD Radeon PRO W6600: The Radeon PRO W6600 averages 83209, giving it a 3.1% advantage over the Vega 64X. The gap widens further in this comparison, but remains in the same single-digit percentage territory as the other rivals.
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050 Mobile: The RTX 5050 Mobile averages 84171, the highest rival average in the list. The Vega 64X is 4.2% behind this card, which is the largest listed delta. Even so, the Vega 64X retains its 93rd percentile position in the overall GPU distribution.
Memory Subsystem
The memory subsystem is built around 16 GB of HBM2. The bus width is 2048 bits, and the resulting bandwidth is 512.0 GB/s. The memory clock is 1000 MHz, listed as 2 Gbps effective. This architecture moves a very large amount of data per memory clock cycle, which is a key advantage for high-resolution workloads where frame buffers and texture sets can become large.
For high-resolution rendering, the relevant constraints are capacity and bandwidth. The 16 GB capacity allows large textures, render targets, and compute buffers to remain resident, reducing the need for spills to slower memory. The 512.0 GB/s bandwidth provides sustained throughput for those buffers during rendering. The 2048-bit bus is the mechanism that makes that bandwidth possible despite the modest per-pin data rate. In practical terms, the memory subsystem is well suited for data-heavy workloads that require both large working sets and consistent memory throughput.
