AMD Radeon RX 7650 GRE

The AMD Radeon RX 7650 GRE is an active Radeon RX 7000 series graphics card from AMD, built on the Navi 33 chip with RDNA 3.0 architecture. TSMC manufactures it on a 6 nm process, with 13,300 million transistors spread across a 204 mm² die for a transistor density of 65.2M per mm². The launch MSRP is 279 USD. In the benchmark database, the card sits in the 84th percentile of all GPUs, with an average benchmark score of 42,723.

How It Compares

The nearest rival listed is the NVIDIA RTX A6000, which has an average score of 42,653. The RX 7650 GRE is 0.2% ahead of that score. This is a minimal margin, effectively placing the two cards in the same performance neighborhood.

Next is the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER, with an average score of 42,576. The RX 7650 GRE leads it by 0.3%. Again, the gap is small enough that benchmark variance could matter more than the underlying hardware difference.

The NVIDIA Quadro M6000 posts an average score of 43,313, which is 1.4% higher than the RX 7650 GRE. This is the only negative delta among the nearest rivals, meaning the Quadro M6000 is the one card in this group that sits above the RX 7650 GRE in average score.

The AMD Radeon Pro 580X closes out the rival set with an average score of 41,991. The RX 7650 GRE is 1.7% ahead of that result. That is the largest positive delta of the four nearest rivals, yet it is still a narrow advantage.

Ray Tracing and Feature Set

The RX 7650 GRE includes 32 ray tracing cores. A tensor core count is not provided in the specifications, so the feature set is best described through its RDNA 3.0 architecture and API support. It supports DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4, which covers the major modern graphics APIs. Display output is handled by 1x HDMI 2.1a and 3x DisplayPort 2.1 connectors, and the card connects to a system through a PCIe 4.0 x8 interface. Compute figures in the data include 22.08 TFLOPS FP32 and 44.15 TFLOPS FP16 (2:1). The pixel rate is 172.5 GPixel/s, while the texture rate is 345.0 GTexel/s. These figures characterize the card as a capable RDNA 3.0 part with dedicated ray tracing hardware, even if no tensor core specification accompanies it.

Power and Cooling

The RX 7650 GRE has a TDP of 165 W. The data recommends a 450 W power supply, and the card requires a single 1x 8-pin power connector. It occupies a dual-slot width, with a length of 204 mm and a height of 115 mm. The 6 nm TSMC process and the 13,300 million transistor count are useful context for that power envelope, but the practical requirements are straightforward: one 8-pin connection and a 450 W PSU. The dual-slot design and 204 mm length mean it should fit in a wide range of chassis, and the 450 W suggestion leaves reasonable headroom for a mainstream build.

Who Should Consider It

Benchmark results place the RX 7650 GRE in the 84th percentile of all GPUs, which indicates it outperforms most entries in the database. Its average benchmark score of 42,723 is the central reference point. The 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 result of 2,336 provides a performance data point for DirectX 12 workloads, while the Geekbench OpenCL score of 83,109 shows strong general compute throughput. Because the four nearest rivals are all within a range of 1.7% in either direction, this card is effectively a tight cluster performer rather than an outlier. Users who need a dual-slot card with one 8-pin power input and 8 GB of memory should consider it, especially if their workload is represented by the benchmark suite in the data. The 84th percentile rank also suggests it is positioned above typical GPUs, so it is a reasonable choice for someone looking to step up from a lower-ranked card, provided the 8 GB frame buffer is enough for the intended workloads.

Benchmark Performance

The average benchmark score of 42,723 is the headline figure. The 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score is 2,336, and the Geekbench OpenCL score is 83,109. These two metrics cover different aspects of performance, but the average score is what anchors the nearest rival comparisons. Against the NVIDIA RTX A6000, the RX 7650 GRE is 0.2% higher. Against the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER, it is 0.3% higher. The NVIDIA Quadro M6000 is the only rival that leads, with the RX 7650 GRE trailing by 1.4%. The AMD Radeon Pro 580X is behind by 1.7%. Looking at the deltas, the performance envelope is very tight: no rival is more than 1.7% away in either direction. The 1720 MHz base clock, 2350 MHz game clock, and 2695 MHz boost clock are the clock speeds that drive these results. The 2048 shading units, 128 TMUs, and 64 ROPs form the render output stage, with 172.5 GPixel/s pixel fill and 345.0 GTexel/s texture fill. The FP32 throughput of 22.08 TFLOPS and FP16 throughput of 44.15 TFLOPS (2:1) give additional compute context. None of these numbers point to a dominant performance gap; the data shows a card that sits in a narrow band alongside its nearest rivals.

Memory Subsystem

The memory subsystem uses 8 GB of GDDR6 on a 128-bit bus. The data lists the memory clock as 2250 MHz, with an effective data rate of 18 Gbps. This configuration yields 288.0 GB/s of bandwidth. The 128-bit bus is the more restrictive element of the memory design, while the 8 GB capacity is the practical limit for high-resolution workloads. A card with 8 GB of VRAM must fit textures, geometry, and intermediate buffers within that space, and the 288.0 GB/s bandwidth dictates how quickly that data can be moved through the 2048 shading units. In the context of the overall benchmark profile, the memory subsystem is not an outlier; the 84th percentile and average score of 42,723 are consistent with a card whose main constraint is likely to appear when workloads exceed the 8 GB frame buffer or push against the 128-bit bus. The 18 Gbps effective data rate is a solid figure for GDDR6, but it cannot compensate entirely for the narrow bus width and 8 GB capacity limit.
