Analysis: AMD Radeon AI PRO R9700S vs Intel Arc Graphics 24EU
Head-to-Head Benchmarks
The recorded data for these two GPUs is heavily asymmetrical. The AMD Radeon AI PRO R9700S has no benchmark entries in the database, while the Intel Arc Graphics 24EU has a single recorded result: a 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 733. This means the direct head-to-head comparison is limited to a single data point for one side, and zero recorded measurements for the other.
For the Intel Arc Graphics 24EU, that score of 733 places it in the 3rd percentile of all GPUs in the database. Its nearest rivals in the ranking are the Intel Arc Graphics 32EU and the Intel Arc Graphics 64EU, both with identical average scores of 733, resulting in a 0 percent difference. The AMD Radeon HD 6470M trails with an average score of 723, putting the Intel Arc Graphics 24EU 1.4 percent ahead of that older mobile part. Meanwhile, the NVIDIA GeForce GT 415M posts an average score of 751, meaning the Intel Arc Graphics 24EU sits 2.4 percent behind it.
Since the AMD Radeon AI PRO R9700S has no recorded benchmark scores and no nearest rivals listed, the database cannot compute a win count for either side in head-to-head testing. The winsA and winsB fields both read zero. The only measurable outcome comes from the Intel Arc Graphics 24EU’s solitary 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 run.
The gap between the two parts in raw compute is enormous when looking at the specification data. The AMD Radeon AI PRO R9700S delivers 47.84 TFLOPS of FP32 throughput, whereas the Intel Arc Graphics 24EU delivers 768.0 GFLOPS. That difference is not a percentage; it is a factor of more than 60 in theoretical floating-point performance. In FP16, the AMD part again delivers 47.84 TFLOPS with a 1:1 ratio, while the Intel part delivers 1.536 TFLOPS at a 2:1 ratio. The AMD GPU’s pixel rate is 373.8 GPixel/s versus 12.00 GPixel/s for the Intel GPU. Texture rate measures 747.5 GTexel/s against 24.00 GTexel/s.
These numbers indicate that the AMD Radeon AI PRO R9700S operates in a completely different performance class, one that the single 733-point 3DMark Steel Nomad score from the Intel Arc Graphics 24EU cannot remotely approach. The database’s benchmark record for the Intel part confirms its position near the bottom of the overall GPU distribution, at the 3rd percentile. The AMD part sits at the 50th percentile by its own percentile field, though that figure is not backed by any recorded benchmark run in this dataset.
Architecture Differences
The two GPUs come from different manufacturers and different architecture families. The AMD Radeon AI PRO R9700S uses the Navi 48 chip built on RDNA 4.0 architecture, belonging to the Radeon Pro Navi (Navi IV Series) generation. It is manufactured on a 4 nm process at TSMC. The chip contains 53,900 million transistors on a die size of 357 mm², giving a transistor density of 151.0M per mm².
The Intel Arc Graphics 24EU uses the Arrow Lake-S chip built on Xe-LPG architecture, belonging to the Arc Graphics (Arrow Lake) generation. It is manufactured on a 3 nm process, also at TSMC. The chip contains 17,800 million transistors on a die size of 243 mm², giving a transistor density of 73.3M per mm².
The AMD part is a discrete, dual-slot card with a 300 W TDP and a PCIe 5.0 x16 bus interface. It requires a 1x 16-pin power connector and a 700 W suggested PSU. The Intel part is an integrated graphics processor (IGP) with a 65 W TDP and a Ring Bus interface. It has no power connector and no suggested PSU because it draws power through the motherboard. Its display outputs are motherboard dependent, while the AMD card provides 4x DisplayPort 2.1a outputs.
The AMD GPU has 4096 shading units, 256 texture mapping units, and 128 ROPs. It also includes 64 ray tracing cores. The Intel GPU has 192 shading units, 12 TMUs, and 6 ROPs. It lists no ray tracing cores in the database. The AMD part has dedicated GDDR6 memory of 32 GB on a 256 bit bus with 644.6 GB/s of bandwidth. The Intel part uses system shared memory, with system dependent bandwidth.
Both GPUs support DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4. The AMD part has a base clock of 1660 MHz, a boost clock of 2920 MHz, and a game clock of 2350 MHz. Its memory clock is 2518 MHz, rated at 20.1 Gbps effective. The Intel part has a base clock of 300 MHz and a boost clock of 2000 MHz, with no separate game clock and no dedicated memory clock.
The release dates differ as well. The Intel Arc Graphics 24EU was released on 2024-10-23, while the AMD Radeon AI PRO R9700S was released on 2025-12-10. The AMD part’s predecessor is listed as Radeon Pro Vega, whereas the Intel part’s predecessor is HD Graphics. Both are marked as Active in production status.
The transistor density difference is notable: the AMD chip packs 151.0M transistors per mm², while the Intel chip packs 73.3M per mm². The AMD chip is both larger in die area and much denser, which aligns with its far higher compute capacity and dedicated memory subsystem.

Where Each One Wins
The AMD Radeon AI PRO R9700S wins decisively in every compute and graphics specification category recorded in the database. Its shading unit count of 4096 is more than 21 times the Intel part’s 192 units. Its 64 ray tracing cores give it hardware RT capability that the Intel Arc Graphics 24EU lacks entirely. Its 32 GB of GDDR6 memory with 644.6 GB/s bandwidth is a dedicated high-speed memory subsystem, whereas the Intel part relies on system shared memory with system dependent bandwidth. Its FP32 throughput of 47.84 TFLOPS is more than 60 times the Intel part’s 768.0 GFLOPS. Its pixel rate of 373.8 GPixel/s and texture rate of 747.5 GTexel/s dwarf the Intel part’s 12.00 GPixel/s and 24.00 GTexel/s.
The AMD part’s dual-slot, 300 W discrete design with PCIe 5.0 x16 support and 4x DisplayPort 2.1a outputs positions it for workstation-class use. It has a boost clock of 2920 MHz and a game clock of 2350 MHz, both far above the Intel part’s 2000 MHz boost and 300 MHz base. Its transistor count of 53,900 million and die size of 357 mm² indicate a large, high-power chip built for sustained heavy workloads.
The Intel Arc Graphics 24EU wins in efficiency-oriented categories. Its 65 W TDP is far lower than the AMD part’s 300 W. It uses no power connector and requires no suggested PSU, which fits an integrated graphics design. Its 3 nm process node is smaller than the AMD part’s 4 nm node, and its die size of 243 mm² is also smaller. Its transistor density of 73.3M per mm² is lower than the AMD part’s 151.0M per mm², but the chip itself is less complex.
The Intel part also holds the only recorded benchmark score in this comparison: 733 in 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12. That score places it at the 3rd percentile of all GPUs, just 1.4 percent ahead of the AMD Radeon HD 6470M and 2.4 percent behind the NVIDIA GeForce GT 415M. The AMD Radeon AI PRO R9700S has no benchmark entries, so its real-world performance cannot be ranked against those scores from the database.
For use cases, the AMD Radeon AI PRO R9700S is suited to tasks requiring heavy FP32 or FP16 compute, high memory bandwidth, dedicated VRAM capacity, and ray tracing. The Intel Arc Graphics 24EU is suited to systems where low power draw, integrated graphics, and motherboard-dependent output are acceptable. The Intel part’s release date of 2024-10-23 precedes the AMD part’s 2025-12-10 release, so the AMD product is the newer design.
The database records zero benchmark wins for either side in head-to-head testing because the AMD part has no benchmark data. The Intel part’s single 733-point score stands as the only measured result, but it cannot be compared directly against the AMD part’s specifications. The performance difference is so large that the AMD part’s theoretical compute output exceeds the Intel part’s by orders of magnitude across every measured metric except power consumption and process node size.
