AMD Radeon PRO V710 vs Intel Arc Graphics 2 Xe Mobile Comparison

The AMD Radeon PRO V710 and the Intel Arc Graphics 2 Xe Mobile represent two fundamentally different approaches to graphics hardware. The AMD part is a discrete, high-power workstation accelerator built on a dedicated silicon die, while the Intel part is a low-power integrated graphics processor (IGP) designed for portable devices. The recorded data shows a massive gap in raw performance, architectural resources, and intended use cases. The V710 lands in the 88th percentile of all GPUs in the database, whereas the Intel part sits at the 50th percentile. The following analysis breaks down the data for both parts.

Where Each One Wins

The separation in use-case is clear from the first data points. The AMD Radeon PRO V710 is built for sustained, high-throughput compute and rendering workloads. It carries a 158 W TDP, a single-slot cooler, and a PCIe 4.0 x16 interface, all of which point to a desktop workstation environment. Its 28 GB of GDDR6 memory across a 224 bit bus provides 504.0 GB/s of bandwidth, a figure suited for large datasets and high-resolution textures. The Intel Arc Graphics 2 Xe Mobile, by contrast, uses a 25 W TDP and an IGP bus interface. Its memory is marked as "System Shared" with bandwidth listed as "System Dependent", meaning it relies on the host system's RAM rather than dedicated VRAM. This is a part for portable devices where power efficiency and space are the primary constraints.

The benchmark data reinforces this split. The V710 has recorded scores in two tests: 853 in 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 and 116460 in Geekbench OpenCL. Its average benchmark score is 58657. The Intel part has no recorded benchmarks in the database, and its average benchmark score is listed as 0. In terms of compute, the V710 delivers 27.65 TFLOPS of FP32 performance, while the Intel part delivers 1,280.0 GFLOPS. The difference is roughly an order of magnitude. The V710 wins every measurable category, but the Intel part wins on mobility and power draw, delivering a usable GPU in a 25 W envelope with no external power connectors.

Architecture Differences

The two parts use entirely different architectures, process nodes, and foundries. The AMD Radeon PRO V710 is based on the Navi 32 chip using RDNA 3.0 architecture, with the codename "Wheat Nas". It is manufactured on a 5 nm process at TSMC. The Intel Arc Graphics 2 Xe Mobile uses the Wildcat Lake chip with Xe3-LPG architecture, built on a 3 nm process at Intel. The Intel part is part of the Arc Graphics-M generation, while the AMD part belongs to the Radeon Pro Navi (Navi III Series) generation.

The resource allocation differs sharply. The AMD chip contains 28,100 million transistors on a 346 mm² die, giving a transistor density of 81.2M per mm². The Intel part has unknown transistor count and die size in the database. The V710 features 3456 shading units, 216 texture mapping units (TMUs), and 96 render output units (ROPs). It also includes 54 ray tracing cores. The Intel part has 256 shading units, 16 TMUs, and 8 ROPs, with only 2 ray tracing cores. The AMD part's pixel rate is 192.0 GPixel/s versus 20.00 GPixel/s for Intel, and its texture rate is 432.0 GTexel/s versus 40.00 GTexel/s.

Memory architecture is another major divider. The V710 uses 28 GB of GDDR6 with a 224 bit bus, achieving 504.0 GB/s bandwidth. The Intel part uses system shared memory, with bus width and type both listed as "System Shared". The AMD part has a dedicated memory clock of 2250 MHz, translating to 18 Gbps effective, while the Intel part's memory clock is simply "System Shared". The V710 requires a 450 W suggested PSU and a single 8-pin power connector, while the Intel part uses no power connectors and has no suggested PSU listed.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The database contains no direct head-to-head benchmark entries between these two parts, and the wins counter shows 0 for each side. However, the recorded individual benchmarks and specifications provide enough data for a meaningful comparison.

The most decisive gap appears in FP32 compute. The V710 delivers 27.65 TFLOPS, while the Intel part delivers 1,280.0 GFLOPS. This makes the AMD part roughly 21.6 times faster in single-precision compute, a delta that dwarfs any other comparison. In FP16, the V710 also delivers 27.65 TFLOPS with a 1:1 ratio, while the Intel part delivers 2.560 TFLOPS with a 2:1 ratio. The AMD part has higher peak throughput in both precision formats.

In the Geekbench OpenCL test, the V710 scores 116460. The Intel part has no score recorded, so no direct percentage can be calculated from the database. The 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 853 for the V710 similarly has no counterpart for the Intel part. The average benchmark score for the V710 is 58657, which places it 0.2% above the NVIDIA P102-100, 0.5% above the AMD Radeon RX 6950 XT, 0.7% above the Intel Arc A570M, and 1% above the AMD Radeon RX 5600 OEM. The Intel part's average score of 0 leaves it without comparable rival deltas.

The pixel rate comparison shows the V710 at 192.0 GPixel/s versus 20.00 GPixel/s for Intel, a 9.6 times advantage. The texture rate shows 432.0 GTexel/s versus 40.00 GTexel/s, a 10.8 times advantage. Clock behavior also differs: the V710 has a base clock of 1900 MHz and a boost of 2000 MHz, while the Intel part has a base clock of 300 MHz and a boost of 2500 MHz. The Intel part boosts higher but starts much lower, reflecting its power-constrained mobile design.

The Verdict

The data points to distinct buyers for each part. The AMD Radeon PRO V710 is a workstation accelerator with no display outputs, meaning it is designed for compute tasks in a host system with a separate display adapter. Its 28 GB of GDDR6, 504.0 GB/s bandwidth, and 27.65 TFLOPS of FP32 performance make it suitable for heavy rendering and compute workloads. Its average benchmark score of 58657 places it in the 88th percentile of all GPUs, and it edges out the NVIDIA P102-100 by 0.2% and the AMD Radeon RX 6950 XT by 0.5% in average score.

The Intel Arc Graphics 2 Xe Mobile is a different product class entirely. It is an IGP with a 25 W TDP, system shared memory, and no power connectors. It is designed for portable devices where low power draw and integration matter more than raw throughput. Its 1,280.0 GFLOPS of FP32 performance and 2 ray tracing cores are modest by discrete standards, but the part ships in a package that requires no additional cooling beyond the portable device's existing solution. It has no recorded benchmarks in the database, so its real-world performance cannot be quantified from the available data.

The choice comes down to system context. A workstation build that needs maximum compute throughput, large dedicated memory, and PCIe connectivity should use the AMD Radeon PRO V710. A mobile device that needs a basic GPU with low power consumption and no discrete memory should use the Intel Arc Graphics 2 Xe Mobile. The benchmark data confirms that the V710 is the superior performer in every measured metric, but the Intel part operates in a power and form-factor class where the V710 cannot function. The AMD part is 158 W and single-slot; the Intel part is 25 W and integrated. These are not competing products, they are complementary solutions for different hardware platforms.
