Analysis: AMD Radeon PRO W7400 vs Intel Arc Graphics 32EU
Head-to-Head Benchmarks
The recorded database contains only one benchmark result for this pairing. The Intel Arc Graphics 32EU has a 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 733, while the AMD Radeon PRO W7400 has no recorded benchmark scores in the database. This absence of data for the AMD part means a direct numeric comparison cannot be established from the recorded measurements. The Intel solution sits at the 3rd percentile of all GPUs in the database, which places it below the vast majority of recorded graphics hardware. The AMD Radeon PRO W7400 holds a 50th percentile ranking, indicating it sits at the median of all recorded GPUs, though this is based on the database's overall positioning rather than a specific workload score.
The Intel Arc Graphics 32EU's nearest rivals in the database provide context for its 733 score. The Intel Arc Graphics 24EU and Intel Arc Graphics 64EU both record identical average scores of 733, resulting in a 0 percent delta. The AMD Radeon HD 6470M trails at 723, which is 1.4 percent behind the Intel part. On the other side, the NVIDIA GeForce GT 415M scores 751, putting it 2.4 percent ahead of the Intel Arc Graphics 32EU. These comparisons indicate that the Intel integrated solution performs in a narrow band alongside older discrete mobile GPUs and other low-end Intel Arc variants.
The Verdict
The data supports a clear separation between these two products. The AMD Radeon PRO W7400 is a dedicated discrete graphics card with 8 GB of GDDR6 memory, a 128-bit memory bus, and 172.8 GB/s of bandwidth. Its 1792 shading units, 112 texture mapping units, and 64 render output units far exceed the Intel Arc Graphics 32EU's 256 shading units, 16 TMUs, and 8 ROPs. The AMD card delivers 7.885 TFLOPS of FP32 performance, while the Intel integrated part delivers 998.4 GFLOPS. This is a substantial gap in raw compute throughput, with the AMD card offering roughly eight times the FP32 throughput of the Intel solution.
The AMD Radeon PRO W7400 also includes 28 ray tracing cores, while the Intel Arc Graphics 32EU lists no ray tracing cores in its specifications. The AMD card's pixel rate of 70.40 GPixel/s and texture rate of 123.2 GTexel/s dwarf the Intel part's 15.60 GPixel/s and 31.20 GTexel/s. For any workload that depends on rasterization throughput, texture filtering, or memory bandwidth, the AMD discrete card holds a decisive advantage based on the specification data.
The Intel Arc Graphics 32EU is an integrated graphics processor within the Arrow Lake-S chip, using system shared memory with bandwidth described as system dependent. It has a higher boost clock at 1950 MHz compared to the AMD card's 1100 MHz boost, and it draws 65 W versus the AMD card's 55 W TDP. However, the higher clock does not compensate for the far smaller execution resource pool. The Intel part's FP16 throughput of 1.997 TFLOPS with a 2:1 ratio indicates it processes FP16 at twice the rate of FP32, whereas the AMD card maintains a 1:1 ratio at 7.885 TFLOPS for both formats.
The AMD Radeon PRO W7400 is the only choice for tasks requiring discrete memory, high bandwidth, or dedicated ray tracing hardware. The Intel part's 3rd percentile ranking and its rivalry with GPUs from over a decade ago, such as the GeForce GT 415M, confirm it targets basic display output and light workloads. The AMD card's 50th percentile placement and active production status position it as a mid-range professional solution.

Architecture Differences
The AMD Radeon PRO W7400 uses the RDNA 3.0 architecture, which is AMD's third-generation Radeon DNA design. The Intel Arc Graphics 32EU uses the Xe-LPG architecture, Intel's low-power graphics architecture for integrated solutions. The AMD chip is codenamed Hotpink Bonefish, while the Intel chip is based on Arrow Lake-S.
The AMD architecture implements 28 dedicated ray tracing cores, providing hardware acceleration for ray-traced workloads. The Intel part lists no ray tracing cores, indicating it lacks this dedicated hardware. The AMD card's FP16 throughput matches its FP32 throughput at a 1:1 ratio, both at 7.885 TFLOPS. The Intel part processes FP16 at 1.997 TFLOPS with a 2:1 ratio, meaning its FP16 rate is twice its FP32 rate.
The AMD card uses discrete GDDR6 memory with a dedicated 128-bit memory bus, while the Intel part shares system memory with a bus width and bandwidth described as system dependent. This architectural difference is fundamental: the AMD card has reserved, high-bandwidth memory, whereas the Intel integrated GPU must compete with the CPU and other system components for memory access.
The AMD card uses a PCIe 4.0 x8 bus interface for host communication, while the Intel part uses a Ring Bus interface, reflecting its integration into the Arrow Lake-S processor. The AMD card is a single-slot discrete card with 4x DisplayPort 2.1 outputs and no power connectors, while the Intel part is an IGP with motherboard dependent display outputs.
The AMD architecture is fabricated on a 6 nm TSMC process with 13,300 million transistors across a 204 mm² die. The Intel architecture uses a more advanced 3 nm TSMC process with 17,800 million transistors across a larger 243 mm² die. Despite the smaller transistor count, the AMD die achieves higher absolute performance in every measured throughput category, which reflects the execution resource allocation rather than process technology alone.
Both architectures support DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4. Both are in active production. The AMD card's 55 W TDP is lower than the Intel part's 65 W TDP, and the AMD card suggests a 250 W system PSU, while the Intel part has no suggested PSU because it draws power through the host platform.
