Graphics Performance

The RTX A3000 Mobile scores 12,720 in the G3D Mark benchmark (the standard measure of rasterization GPU performance), placing it in the Mid-Range tier as a Aging generation graphics card. It is built on the Ampere (2020−2025) architecture (codename: GA104), manufactured on a 8 nm process— smaller process nodes improve power efficiency and transistor density. It packs 4096 shader units (the primary compute units for rendering pixels), 128 TMUs (texture mapping units), and 64 ROPs (render output units that handle final pixel output). Raw FP32 compute power: 10.08 TFLOPS — this measures the theoretical peak floating-point performance. Boost clock reaches 1230 MHz from a base of 600 MHz.
