AMD Instinct MI210 vs AMD Radeon PRO V710: Comparison
Instinct MI210 vs Radeon PRO V710 tdp compared
Tdp is where these two genuinely part company, Instinct MI210 300 W against Radeon PRO V710 158 W, a 90% lead for Radeon PRO V710. Instinct MI210 also leads on memory bandwidth, 1600 GB/s on the Instinct MI210 versus 448 GB/s on the Radeon PRO V710. Vram runs the same way, 64 GB on the Instinct MI210 versus 28 GB on the Radeon PRO V710, another win for Instinct MI210. Add memory bus width to that, 4096 bit on the Instinct MI210 versus 224 bit on the Radeon PRO V710, and the pattern holds.
Which should you buy, Instinct MI210 or Radeon PRO V710?
Buy the Instinct MI210 for double-precision workloads that don't need MI250X-level throughput, though it is not the pick for any desktop or workstation build - compute-only, no display output and maximum-throughput HPC nodes (use MI250X instead). It also earns its place with HPC and AI deployments in standard PCIe-slot servers without OAM sled support. The Radeon PRO V710 suits buyers comparing AMD's official reference specifications and researching a chip before choosing a board-partner card, though it is not built for overclocking-focused enthusiasts (reference clocks only). It is the wrong buy for buyers wanting a specific retail card with cooler and warranty details. Our rating of the Instinct MI210 (7.3/10): A practical, PCIe-slot-friendly way to get CDNA 2 compute into a standard server, useful for smaller HPC and AI deployments, but clearly the entry point of its generation next to the dual-die MI250X and now well behind the MI300 series.
Frequently asked questions
Do the Instinct MI210 and Radeon PRO V710 differ on board partner?
Yes. Board Partner reads AMD Reference on the Instinct MI210 versus AMD on the Radeon PRO V710.
Is the Card Length the same on the Instinct MI210 and Radeon PRO V710?
It is. Both are listed at 267 mm, so it is not a reason to pick one over the other.
