Cost-effectiveness evaluation

Performance to price ratio. The higher, the better.

RX Vega 9 has 472% better value for money than Pro W5500M.

Detailed specifications

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	576	1408
Boost clock speed	1300 MHz	1450 MHz
Number of transistors	no data	6,400 million
Manufacturing process technology	14 nm	7 nm
Power consumption (TDP)	15 Watt	85 Watt
Texture fill rate	no data	127.6

Form factor & compatibility

Information on Radeon RX Vega 9 and Radeon Pro W5500M compatibility with other computer components. Useful when choosing a future computer configuration or upgrading an existing one. For notebook video cards it's notebook size, connection slot and bus, if the video card is inserted into a slot instead of being soldered to the notebook motherboard.
