NVIDIA RTX 2000 Max-Q Ada Generation

The NVIDIA RTX 2000 Max-Q Ada Generation is listed under the GeForce 20-series, but its architecture is Ada Lovelace, built on the AD107 chip at TSMC’s 5 nm process. The die contains 18,900 million transistors across 159 mm², for a transistor density of 118.9M / mm². It was released on 2023-03-20 and is marked Active in production. The package is a 35 W IGP with no external power connectors, 8 GB of GDDR6 on a 128-bit bus, and a database percentile ranking of 50; the benchmarks array is empty and the average benchmark score is 0.

Who Should Consider It

The database contains no measured benchmark scores for this GPU, so resolution-based recommendations cannot be grounded in FPS results. What the fact pack does provide is a complete hardware envelope: 8 GB GDDR6 memory, a 128-bit bus, 256.0 GB/s bandwidth, 3072 shading units, and 8.940 TFLOPS of FP32 compute. That profile is best considered for workloads where the 8 GB memory capacity and the 35 W power target matter more than raw fillrate.

The product’s slot width is IGP and its power connectors are None, which means the host system must supply all power through the board interface. The bus interface is PCIe 4.0 x16, giving a modern connection path, but the display outputs are Portable Device Dependent, so the GPU is not a standalone desktop card. This points toward compact, integrated portable systems where board footprint and cooling are handled by the device manufacturer. Because the GPU has no recorded benchmark average, anyone using this database for a settings checklist should treat the raw specs — not measured game performance — as the only data-driven guide.

The memory clock is 2000 MHz with 16 Gbps effective speed, and the memory bandwidth is 256.0 GB/s. That bandwidth ceiling, combined with the 128-bit bus, suggests the part is configured for moderate memory throughput rather than extreme wide-bus performance. The pixel rate is 69.84 GPixel/s, and the texture rate is 139.7 GTexel/s, so fillrate-heavy scenarios will be constrained by those figures. If the workload fits within 8 GB GDDR6 and within a 35 W IGP power envelope, this GPU is a reasonable fit; if the workload needs higher measured framerates, the database does not provide evidence for that use case.

Ray Tracing and Feature Set

The Ada Lovelace architecture provides 24 RT cores and 96 tensor cores in this implementation. These are the dedicated hardware blocks listed for ray tracing and tensor work, and they sit alongside 3072 shading units. The fact pack does not describe specific ray tracing features beyond the core counts, but the API support table lists DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4. DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2) is the feature level recorded in the data, and Vulkan 1.4 is the latest API version listed. OpenGL 4.6 is also present.

The FP32 and FP16 rates are both 8.940 TFLOPS, and the FP16 rate is marked as 1:1 relative to FP32. That 1:1 relationship can be useful for compute workloads that mix precision, and the tensor cores add further acceleration resources, though no AI-specific performance metrics are included in the fact pack. The GPU’s process node is 5 nm at TSMC, and the architecture is Ada Lovelace, so the feature set is tied to that architecture generation. The predecessor and successor labels in the database are Ampere-MW and Blackwell-MW, respectively, placing this part between those two generation families.

Benchmark Performance

The benchmark data for this GPU is effectively empty. The `benchmarks` array contains no entries, the `avgBenchmarkScore` is 0, and the `nearestRivals` array is empty. As a result, the database provides no exact deltaPct values to any rival, and no rival names or scores can be cited. The only quantitative ranking information is `percentileVsAllGpus` of 50, which places the GPU at the 50th percentile in the database’s all-GPU distribution.

The raw performance numbers in the fact pack offer a compute ceiling rather than a benchmark result. FP32 throughput is 8.940 TFLOPS. Texture rate is 139.7 GTexel/s, and pixel rate is 69.84 GPixel/s. The memory side is 8 GB GDDR6 on a 128-bit bus with 256.0 GB/s bandwidth. Clocks are 930 MHz base and 1455 MHz boost, with memory at 2000 MHz and 16 Gbps effective. These figures describe what the hardware is capable of at the architectural level, but they do not translate into rival deltas because no rival entries exist in the fact pack.

The absence of benchmark scores is not a performance verdict; it is a structural limitation of the data. The GPU’s percentile rank of 50 is the only relative marker available, and it is exactly the midpoint of all tracked GPUs in this database. Any claim about being ahead of or behind a specific product cannot be grounded in this fact pack, since the nearestRivals field is empty and no average benchmark score exists. For a practical interpretation, the compute and memory figures above define the upper bound of what the GPU can deliver, but the database does not state how that bound compares to any named competitor.

Power and Cooling

The TDP is 35 W, which is the only power figure recorded. The power connectors field is None, and the slot width is IGP, so this is an integrated form factor rather than a slot-mounted expansion card. The database also records no suggested PSU, so there is no recommended power supply wattage to cite. Because the power connectors are None, the board must receive power through its host interface; the bus interface is PCIe 4.0 x16. The display outputs are Portable Device Dependent, meaning cooling and power delivery are ultimately determined by the portable device’s design.

The dimensions fields are null in this fact pack, so there are no length, height, or width figures to use for cooler compatibility. The GPU’s 5 nm TSMC process and 18,900 million transistor count are on-chip facts, but the thermal solution is not described in the data. With a 35 W TDP and no external power connectors, the cooling requirement is the host device’s responsibility. The memory runs at 2000 MHz with 16 Gbps effective, and all of that is contained within the 35 W TDP figure. No additional power connector is required.

How It Compares

The nearestRivals field is empty, so there are no rival GPU names, no rival scores, and no deltaPct values available for comparison. This means the database cannot be used to say “this GPU is X percent faster than that GPU” for any named competitor. The only comparison marker present is the percentileVsAllGpus value of 50, which places the GPU at the 50th percentile among all GPUs tracked by the database. The average benchmark score is 0, so that percentile is not supported by a non-zero averaged score.

The fact pack also lists predecessor and successor labels: Ampere-MW is the predecessor, and Blackwell-MW is the successor. No specs are provided for either of those generation labels, so they serve only as positioning context. The production status is Active, and the release date is 2023-03-20. In the absence of nearestRivals entries, the only grounded comparison is this generational placement and the percentile figure.
