Value for money

To calculate the index we compare the characteristics of graphics cards against their prices.

Technical specs

General performance parameters such as number of shaders, GPU core base clock and boost clock speeds, manufacturing process, texturing and calculation speed. These parameters indirectly speak of performance, but for precise assessment you have to consider their benchmark and gaming test results. Note that power consumption of some graphics cards can well exceed their nominal TDP, especially when overclocked.

Pipelines / CUDA cores	3840	7168
Core clock speed	2075 MHz	no data
Boost clock speed	2320 MHz	1650 MHz
Number of transistors	26,800 million	28,300 million
Manufacturing process technology	7 nm	8 nm
Thermal design power (TDP)	250 Watt	200 Watt
Texture fill rate	556.8	369.6

Compatibility, dimensions and requirements

Information on compatibility with other computer components. Useful when choosing a future computer configuration or upgrading an existing one. For desktop video cards it's interface and bus (motherboard compatibility), additional power connectors (power supply compatibility).

Interface	PCIe 4.0 x16	PCIe 4.0 x16
Length	267 mm	267 mm
Width	2-slot	2-slot
Supplementary power connectors	1x 6-pin + 1x 8-pin	1x 8-pin

Memory

Parameters of memory installed: its type, size, bus, clock and resulting bandwidth. Note that GPUs integrated into processors have no dedicated VRAM and use a shared part of system RAM.

Memory type	GDDR6	GDDR6
Maximum RAM amount	32 GB	20 GB
Memory bus width	256 Bit	320 Bit
Memory clock speed	16000 MHz	16 GB/s
Memory bandwidth	512.0 GB/s	640.0 GB/s
Shared memory	-	no data

Video outputs and ports

Types and number of video connectors present on the reviewed GPUs. As a rule, data in this section is precise only for desktop reference ones (so-called Founders Edition for NVIDIA chips). OEM manufacturers may change the number and type of output ports, while for notebook cards availability of certain video outputs ports depends on the laptop model rather than on the card itself.

Display Connectors

6x mini-DisplayPort

4x DisplayPort

API support

APIs supported, including particular versions of those APIs.

DirectX	12 Ultimate (12_2)	12 Ultimate (12_2)
Shader Model	6.5	6.6
OpenGL	4.6	4.6
OpenCL	2.1	3.0
Vulkan	1.2	1.3

Passmark

Passmark

This is probably the most ubiquitous benchmark, part of Passmark PerformanceTest suite. It gives the graphics card a thorough evaluation under various load, providing four separate benchmarks for Direct3D versions 9, 10, 11 and 12 (the last being done in 4K resolution if possible), and few more tests engaging DirectCompute capabilities.

Benchmark coverage: 25%

Pro W6800 19099

RTX A4500 20789
+8.8%

RTX A4500 outperforms Radeon Pro W6800 by 9% in Passmark.
