AMD Radeon 760M vs Intel Arc Pro B70 Comparison

Architecture Differences

The AMD Radeon 760M and Intel Arc Pro B70 represent fundamentally different approaches to graphics processing. The Radeon 760M is an integrated graphics processor (IGP) built on the Phoenix chip, utilizing AMD's RDNA 3.0 architecture. It belongs to the Navi III IGP generation and is manufactured on a 4 nm process at TSMC. The chip contains 25,390 million transistors on a 178 mm² die, yielding a transistor density of 142.6 million per square millimeter.

The Intel Arc Pro B70, in contrast, is a discrete dual-slot graphics card built on the BMG-G31 chip, using Intel's Xe2-HPG architecture. It belongs to the Battlemage Pro Series and is manufactured on a 5 nm process, also at TSMC. The die size is 368 mm², substantially larger than the AMD IGP, though Intel has not disclosed transistor counts or density figures for this chip.

The Radeon 760M operates with a base clock of 800 MHz and a boost clock of 2599 MHz. The Arc Pro B70 runs at a base clock of 2280 MHz with a boost clock of 2800 MHz, reflecting its discrete design with more thermal headroom. The AMD part draws 15 W, while the Intel part consumes 230 W and requires a single 8-pin power connector alongside a 550 W suggested power supply.

The Radeon 760M relies entirely on system memory, with the memory size, type, bus width, and bandwidth all listed as system dependent. The Arc Pro B70 ships with 32 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 256-bit bus, delivering 608.0 GB/s of bandwidth at a memory clock of 2375 MHz (19 Gbps effective). This memory configuration difference is one of the most significant architectural gaps between the two parts.

Shader resources differ dramatically. The Radeon 760M has 512 shading units, 32 texture mapping units, 16 raster output pipelines, and 8 ray tracing cores. The Arc Pro B70 has 4096 shading units, 256 TMUs, 128 ROPs, and 32 ray tracing cores. The Intel part also supports FP16 at a 2:1 rate (45.88 TFLOPS), while the AMD part runs FP16 at 1:1 (5.323 TFLOPS).

Interface and output capabilities also diverge. The Radeon 760M connects via PCIe 4.0 x8 and its display outputs are motherboard dependent, as expected for an IGP. The Arc Pro B70 uses PCIe 5.0 x16 and provides 1x HDMI 2.1a plus 3x DisplayPort 2.1 outputs. Both support DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4. The Arc Pro B70 measures 267 mm in length, 110 mm in height, and 39 mm in width, while the Radeon 760M has no physical dimensions listed because it is soldered onto the motherboard.

The Verdict

The benchmark data clearly separates these two products by design intent. The AMD Radeon 760M is an integrated solution that delivers a 6019 average benchmark score with only 15 W of power draw. Its performance places it at the 35th percentile of all GPUs, directly comparable to entry-level discrete cards like the AMD Radeon RX 6400 and NVIDIA Quadro P2000, with all rivals within 0.5% of its average score.

The Intel Arc Pro B70 has no recorded benchmark scores in the database, so its 50th percentile ranking is based on specifications rather than measured performance. Its hardware resources are in a different class: 8 times the shading units, 8 times the texture mapping units, 8 times the ROPs, 4 times the ray tracing cores, and over 4 times the FP32 throughput compared to the Radeon 760M. The 32 GB GDDR6 memory with 608.0 GB/s bandwidth versus system shared memory further separates the two.

For systems requiring an integrated solution with minimal power draw, the Radeon 760M offers measurable performance that competes with older discrete cards. For workloads demanding high compute throughput, substantial memory capacity, and dedicated bandwidth, the Arc Pro B70's specifications position it well above the Radeon 760M, though its actual benchmark performance has not yet been recorded. The choice between these GPUs comes down to the platform: the Radeon 760M cannot be purchased separately, while the Arc Pro B70 has a launch MSRP of 949 USD.

Specification Differences

The two GPUs differ across nearly every measured specification. The Radeon 760M uses RDNA 3.0 architecture on a 4 nm process, while the Arc Pro B70 uses Xe2-HPG on a 5 nm process. Die size differs substantially: 178 mm² versus 368 mm².

Clock speeds favor the Intel part, with a base clock of 2280 MHz versus 800 MHz, and a boost clock of 2800 MHz versus 2599 MHz. Memory configurations cannot be compared directly because the Radeon 760M uses system shared memory while the Arc Pro B70 has 32 GB of GDDR6 on a 256-bit bus with 608.0 GB/s bandwidth.

Compute resources show the largest gaps. The Arc Pro B70 has 4096 shading units, 256 TMUs, 128 ROPs, and 32 RT cores, versus 512 shading units, 32 TMUs, 16 ROPs, and 8 RT cores on the Radeon 760M. Pixel rate is 358.4 GPixel/s versus 41.58 GPixel/s, texture rate is 716.8 GTexel/s versus 83.17 GTexel/s, and FP32 is 22.94 TFLOPS versus 5.323 TFLOPS.

Power and physical specifications differ entirely. The Radeon 760M draws 15 W, is an IGP with no power connectors, and uses PCIe 4.0 x8. The Arc Pro B70 draws 230 W, is dual-slot, requires one 8-pin connector and a 550 W power supply, and uses PCIe 5.0 x16. Display outputs are motherboard dependent on the AMD part, while the Intel part has 1x HDMI 2.1a and 3x DisplayPort 2.1. The Arc Pro B70 measures 267 mm by 110 mm by 39 mm.

Release dates differ by over two years: January 30, 2024 for the Radeon 760M, and March 25, 2026 for the Arc Pro B70. The Radeon 760M has a predecessor listed as Navi II IGP and remains in active production. The Arc Pro B70 has no predecessor or successor listed.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The head-to-head benchmark table is empty, so direct comparisons must rely on the individual benchmark results available for the Radeon 760M and the specification-level data for the Arc Pro B70.

The Radeon 760M has measured results across multiple test suites. In 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12, it scores 400. Geekbench results show 20255 in OpenCL and 30336 in Vulkan. PassMark tests show 19 in DirectX 10, 52 in DirectX 11, 25 in DirectX 12, and 65 in DirectX 9. The PassMark G2D score is 890, the G3D score is 5310, and the GPU compute score is 2840.

The Arc Pro B70 has no recorded benchmark scores, which limits direct numerical comparison. However, its specification differences indicate where it should outperform the Radeon 760M. The 608.0 GB/s memory bandwidth versus system dependent bandwidth gives the Intel part a significant advantage in memory-bound workloads. The 22.94 TFLOPS FP32 throughput is more than four times the 5.323 TFLOPS of the Radeon 760M, suggesting large gains in compute-heavy applications. The pixel rate of 358.4 GPixel/s versus 41.58 GPixel/s indicates substantially higher fill-rate capability.

The Radeon 760M's measured average benchmark score of 6019 places it at the 35th percentile of all GPUs, with its closest competitor being the NVIDIA Quadro P2000 at 6049, a 0.5% gap. The Arc Pro B70's 50th percentile ranking is based on specifications, not measured results, so its actual performance relative to the Radeon 760M cannot be quantified from the database.

The Radeon 760M's strongest recorded result is its Geekbench Vulkan score of 30336, which is notably higher than its OpenCL score of 20255, indicating better performance under Vulkan APIs. The PassMark G3D score of 5310 with a DirectX 11 score of 52 suggests varying performance across different API generations, with DirectX 9 delivering the highest PassMark score at 65.

Given the absence of Arc Pro B70 benchmark data, the head-to-head comparison is limited to architectural projections. The Intel part's memory capacity, bandwidth, and compute resources position it well above the Radeon 760M on paper. The AMD part's measured results confirm it functions as a capable IGP with performance comparable to discrete GPUs from previous generations. The database records no direct head-to-head results, so the performance gap remains a specification-based estimate rather than a measured outcome.
