The AD103 chip contains 45,900 million transistors on a 379 mm² die, giving a transistor density of 121.1M per mm². The database lists it under the GeForce 50-series, with the generation label Ada-MW and the predecessor/successor chain Ampere-MW and Blackwell-MW. Its reported 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score is 3596, and the database assigns it a 20th-percentile rank among all GPUs.
Benchmark Performance
The single benchmark result for this GPU is 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12, where the NVIDIA RTX 5000 Mobile Ada Generation scores 3596. That score is also the average benchmark score in the entry, meaning the published result is a single sample rather than a multi-run aggregate. The 20th-percentile placement puts it below the majority of GPUs in the database, yet the nearest rival list shows a very tight cluster around that score.
Against the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16 GB, the RTX 5000 Mobile is 0.5% ahead; the rival's average score is 3577. This is the smallest delta in the comparison set, and the two GPUs are effectively at parity in this workload. Against the NVIDIA GeForce GT 545, the RTX 5000 Mobile trails by 1.3%, as the GT 545 scores 3643. The next rival, the NVIDIA GeForce GT 745M, is behind the RTX 5000 Mobile by 1.7%, scoring 3537. The final listed rival, the NVIDIA GeForce GT 740M, leads by 2.3%, with an average score of 3683.
The deltas are all within a 2.3% narrow band, so the benchmark data places the RTX 5000 Mobile in close competition with all four listed GPUs for this specific directX 12 test. The two negative deltas belong to the GT 545 and the GT 740M, while the two positive deltas belong to the RTX 5060 Ti 16 GB and the GT 745M. The RTX 5000 Mobile therefore sits in the middle of a five-way comparison rather than at the top or bottom of the group.
Compute figures help contextualize the result. The GPU carries 9728 shading units, 304 texture mapping units, and 112 render output units. Pixel fill rate is 236.9 GPixel/s, and texture fill rate is 643.0 GTexel/s. FP32 throughput is 41.15 TFLOPS, and FP16 throughput is also 41.15 TFLOPS with a 1:1 ratio. These rates show balanced shader and half-precision paths, though the only published performance figure remains the 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 3596.
Power and Cooling
The RTX 5000 Mobile Ada Generation is specified with a TDP of 120 W. The slot width is listed as IGP, indicating an integrated form factor rather than a discrete expansion card. Power connectors are listed as None, so the database does not record any auxiliary PCIe power cabling. Since the suggested PSU field is null, there is no PSU recommendation attached to this entry.
The absence of a suggested PSU is consistent with a mobile integrated GPU design: power delivery is handled by the portable device platform rather than by a desktop power supply. The 120 W TDP is the sole thermal/power figure in the fact pack, and it sets the envelope for the integrated design. The bus interface is PCIe 4.0 x16, which provides the host connection, while display outputs are marked as Portable Device Dependent. This means the physical output configuration is defined by the portable product, not by the GPU specification itself. The slot width of IGP reinforces the interpretation that this part is intended for embedded or notebook use rather than as a standalone board.
