Radeon RX 6500 XT vs RTX A4000 Laptop benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the RTX A4000 Laptop beats the Radeon RX 6500 XT in gaming performance.

The Radeon RX 6500 XT has a significantly higher core clock speed. The core clock speed (or base speed) is the frequency at which the GPU core runs. This metric makes sense when comparing GPUs of a similar architecture or generation. In addition, the Radeon RX 6500 XT also has a significantly higher boost clock speed. This is a frequency that can be reached if the GPU is cooled sufficiently and has enough power.

In addition, the Radeon RX 6500 XT has a slightly lower TDP at 107 W when compared to the RTX A4000 Laptop at 140 W. Heat output doesn't match power consumption directly but, it's a good estimate.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the RTX A4000 Laptop is faster than the Radeon RX 6500 XT.
