AMD Radeon 760M vs Intel Arc G3 Extreme Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The AMD Radeon 760M and Intel Arc G3 Extreme occupy different positions in the integrated graphics spectrum, and the recorded data shows a clear separation in raw compute capability. The AMD Radeon 760M delivers a measured 5.323 TFLOPS of FP32 throughput, while the Intel Arc G3 Extreme reaches 7.680 TFLOPS, a 44% advantage in single-precision floating-point performance. This gap carries directly into rasterization rates: the Intel part produces 60.00 GPixel/s of pixel throughput against 41.58 GPixel/s for the AMD part, a 44% lead. Texture fill rates follow the same pattern, with the Intel G3 Extreme reaching 120.0 GTexel/s versus 83.17 GTexel/s for the Radeon 760M, again a 44% margin.

The Intel Arc G3 Extreme also doubles the FP16 throughput advantage. The AMD Radeon 760M executes FP16 at a 1:1 ratio with FP32, yielding 5.323 TFLOPS. The Intel part uses a 2:1 ratio, so its FP16 output reaches 15.36 TFLOPS, which is 2.9 times the AMD FP16 figure. Applications that rely heavily on half-precision math, such as certain machine learning inference workloads and some compute shaders, would see a substantial scaling benefit on the Intel architecture.

The benchmark database contains no direct head-to-head run data for these two products, and the Intel Arc G3 Extreme has no recorded benchmark scores in the database at all. Its average benchmark score sits at 0, while the AMD Radeon 760M holds an average score of 6019 across ten individual tests. Those AMD results include a Geekbench Vulkan score of 30336, a Geekbench OpenCL score of 20255, and a Passmark G3D score of 5310. The Radeon 760M also records Passmark DirectX 9, 10, 11, and 12 scores of 65, 19, 52, and 25 respectively, plus a Passmark G2D score of 890 and a GPU compute score of 2840.

The absence of Intel benchmark data means the comparison must lean on architectural specifications and theoretical throughput numbers. The Radeon 760M's percentile rank among all GPUs is 35, placing it below the midpoint of the database distribution. The Intel Arc G3 Extreme carries a percentile rank of 50, which indicates a median position, but without measured scores this rank cannot be verified against actual runs. The theoretical throughput figures suggest the Intel part should outperform the AMD part in most compute-bound scenarios, but the database lacks the empirical confirmation.

Where Each One Wins

The AMD Radeon 760M wins in the category of verified, measured performance. Its ten benchmark scores provide concrete data points across multiple API generations and workload types. The Passmark DirectX 9 score of 65 and DirectX 11 score of 52 show that the RDNA 3.0 architecture handles legacy and current DirectX titles with usable results. The Geekbench Vulkan score of 30336 indicates strong cross-platform graphics compute capability, and the OpenCL score of 20255 confirms general-purpose GPU compute is well supported. For any application where the user needs documented, repeatable performance numbers, the Radeon 760M is the only one of these two with any evidence in the database.

The Intel Arc G3 Extreme wins in raw architectural capacity. Its 1536 shading units outnumber the Radeon 760M's 512 by a factor of three. Texture mapping units stand at 48 versus 32, and render output units at 24 versus 16. The Intel part also carries 12 ray tracing cores against 8 for AMD, which could improve ray-traced effects in supported games, though no benchmark data confirms this. The FP32 throughput of 7.680 TFLOPS and FP16 throughput of 15.36 TFLOPS are the highest figures in this comparison, giving the Intel part a theoretical ceiling well above the AMD part.

For power-constrained environments, the AMD Radeon 760M has a clear advantage. Its TDP is 15 W, while the Intel Arc G3 Extreme draws 80 W. The AMD part is a 4 nm TSMC design, and the Intel part uses Intel's 3 nm process. The lower power envelope means the Radeon 760M can fit into thin-and-light portable devices without active cooling, while the Intel part would require more substantial thermal management. The database shows both are IGP (integrated graphics processor) class parts with no power connectors and no standalone slot width, but the 65 W difference in TDP separates their deployment targets.

Architecture Differences

The AMD Radeon 760M uses the RDNA 3.0 architecture on the Phoenix chip, part of the Navi III IGP generation. It is built on a 4 nm process at TSMC, with 25,390 million transistors on a 178 mm² die, producing a transistor density of 142.6 million transistors per square millimeter. The Intel Arc G3 Extreme uses the Xe3-LPG architecture on the Panther Lake chip, part of the Arc Graphics-M generation. It is fabricated on Intel's 3 nm process, though the database does not list transistor count, die size, or transistor density for this part.

Clock behavior differs significantly. The AMD part has a base clock of 800 MHz and a boost clock of 2599 MHz. The Intel part starts at a much lower 300 MHz base but boosts to 2500 MHz. This wider frequency range on the Intel side suggests a more aggressive power management strategy, where the GPU can idle at very low clocks and ramp up when needed. The AMD part's higher base clock indicates it maintains a more consistent minimum performance level.

Memory architecture is identical in concept: both use system shared memory with system-dependent bandwidth. Neither has dedicated VRAM, and both rely on the host system's memory controller. The bus interface differs, with the AMD Radeon 760M using PCIe 4.0 x8 while the Intel Arc G3 Extreme uses a direct IGP connection. Display outputs are motherboard dependent for the AMD part and portable device dependent for the Intel part, reflecting their different target platforms.

Both parts support DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4. Neither has dedicated tensor cores listed. The AMD part's FP16 execution runs at a 1:1 ratio with FP32, meaning each FP32 core processes one FP16 operation per clock. The Intel part runs FP16 at a 2:1 ratio, meaning it processes two FP16 operations per clock per core, which explains the 15.36 TFLOPS FP16 figure against 7.680 TFLOPS FP32.
