NVIDIA RTX A2000 Mobile

The NVIDIA RTX A2000 Mobile is an Ampere-generation mobile GPU using the GA107 chip, fabricated by Samsung on an 8 nm process. Transistor count is 8,700 million on a 200 mm² die, giving a density of 43.5M per mm². The GPU belongs to the Ampere-MW (Ax000) generation, with the Quadro Turing-M listed as its predecessor and Ada-MW as its successor. It contains 2560 shading units, 80 TMUs, 48 ROPs, 20 RT cores, and 80 tensor cores. Rated FP32 throughput is 8.637 TFLOPS, and rated FP16 throughput is also 8.637 TFLOPS (1:1). Pixel rate is 80.98 GPixel/s, and texture rate is 135.0 GTexel/s. Memory is 4 GB GDDR6 on a 128-bit bus, with a memory clock of 1500 MHz, an effective data rate of 12 Gbps, and 192.0 GB/s bandwidth. The bus interface is PCIe 4.0 x16, and display outputs are portable device dependent. The GPU was released on 2021-04-11, its production status is end-of-life, and its average benchmark score is 13821, placing it at the 54th percentile among all GPUs.

Power and Cooling — TDP, PSU recommendation, connector requirements

The RTX A2000 Mobile carries a 95 W TDP. The slot width is listed as IGP, and the power connectors field is None. No suggested PSU is present in the fact pack. With no power connectors listed, the connector requirement is none. In a mobile IGP context, the 95 W TDP is the power envelope around which the portable device is designed; the fact pack does not include a separate desktop PSU recommendation. The 8 nm process and 200 mm² die are the physical parameters underlying that envelope, and the transistor density of 43.5M per mm² indicates the packing density of the GA107 chip. The data does not provide any external power connector specification, so system-level delivery would depend on the portable device rather than on an add-in-board power input.

Memory Subsystem — VRAM size/type, bus width, bandwidth and what it means for high resolutions

The VRAM configuration is 4 GB of GDDR6 on a 128-bit bus. The memory clock is 1500 MHz, with an effective data rate of 12 Gbps, yielding 192.0 GB/s of bandwidth. For high-resolution rendering, the 4 GB capacity is the most visible constraint: a 128-bit bus and 192.0 GB/s bandwidth are not extreme, but the limited frame buffer is the first resource that can be exhausted by high-resolution textures and geometry. The GPU's compute rates — 8.637 TFLOPS FP32 and 80.98 GPixel/s pixel rate — are paired with this memory subsystem. The data shows a more modest memory interface relative to the chip's shading throughput, which is consistent with a compact mobile part. Workloads that remain within the 4 GB capacity are the ones this memory layout supports directly; once that capacity is exceeded, the 128-bit bus and 192.0 GB/s bandwidth become secondary factors.

Ray Tracing and Feature Set — RT/tensor cores, API support from facts

The RTX A2000 Mobile includes 20 RT cores and 80 tensor cores. This is the Ampere-generation RT and tensor core configuration recorded in the fact pack. API support is DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4. The DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2) entry represents the DirectX API path in the data; Vulkan 1.4 and OpenGL 4.6 are the additional supported APIs. With 80 tensor cores and 20 RT cores, the hardware resources for tensor and ray tracing work are present. The fact pack does not list additional feature-level details beyond these core counts and API entries, so the analysis is limited to the stated RT/tensor hardware and software support. The GPU's architecture is listed as Ampere, which is the generation associated with this configuration.

How It Compares — position vs each nearest rival, one short paragraph per rival

The nearestRivals list reports four GPUs, with average scores and deltaPct values relative to the A2000 Mobile's 13821 average. The AMD Radeon 660M has an average score of 13812 and a deltaPct of 0.1%. The A2000 Mobile is therefore 0.1% ahead of that rival in aggregate terms. The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680 also averages 13812, with the same deltaPct of 0.1%, putting the two GPUs in a near tie. The AMD Radeon RX 570X averages 13871, giving a deltaPct of -0.4%, so the A2000 Mobile trails this rival by a small margin. The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 Ti averages 13925, with a deltaPct of -0.7%, the largest negative delta in the set. Overall, the RTX A2000 Mobile sits within 0.1% of two rivals, 0.4% below a third, and 0.7% below the fourth.

Benchmark Performance — analyze scores vs rivals with exact % deltas

PassMark results for the RTX A2000 Mobile are DirectX 9 at 115, DirectX 11 at 68, DirectX 10 at 57, and DirectX 12 at 47. The DirectX 9 score is the highest of the four API tests, while DirectX 12 is the lowest. The PassMark G3D score is 9611, the G2D score is 491, and the GPU compute score is 4334. Geekbench results are 56518 in OpenCL and 53146 in Vulkan. These individual runs are the entries that correspond to the 13821 average benchmark score.

The nearest rival deltas on that average are 0.1% above AMD Radeon 660M and NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680, -0.4% below AMD Radeon RX 570X, and -0.7% below NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 Ti. The average scores for those rivals are 13812, 13812, 13871, and 13925, respectively. Thus, the A2000 Mobile is not separated from its nearest rivals by large margins in the aggregate. At the 54th percentile of all GPUs, the part sits in the middle of the database distribution. Across the API-specific PassMark entries, the ordering in the data is DirectX 9 above DirectX 11, DirectX 11 above DirectX 10, and DirectX 10 above DirectX 12.
