AMD Radeon PRO W7500 vs Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual Comparison

Where Each One Wins

The recorded database splits these two professional workstation cards cleanly along architectural and capacity lines. The AMD Radeon PRO W7500 has a full suite of benchmark results, while the Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual has no recorded scores in the database at the time of measurement. This makes direct win counting impossible, so the analysis must rely on the physical and specification data for each card.

The AMD Radeon PRO W7500 wins in efficiency and physical footprint. Its 70 W TDP requires no power connectors, fits a single slot, and needs only a 250 W suggested PSU. The card measures 216 mm in length, 115 mm in height, and 20 mm in width. This makes it suitable for compact workstation builds where space and thermals are constrained.

The Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual wins in raw memory capacity, memory bandwidth, and interface modernity. It carries 24 GB of GDDR6 across a 192-bit bus, delivering 456.0 GB/s of bandwidth. The AMD card offers 8 GB on a 128-bit bus with 256.0 GB/s. The Intel card also uses PCIe 5.0 x8, while the AMD card uses PCIe 4.0 x8.

The Intel card further wins on pixel fill rate and texture fill rate. Its 192.0 GPixel/s pixel rate and 384.0 GTexel/s texture rate substantially exceed the AMD card's 108.8 GPixel/s and 190.4 GTexel/s. These figures indicate the Intel card is built for heavier rasterization workloads. The AMD card counters with a higher RT core count of 28 versus 20, though the Intel card has more shading units, TMUs, and ROPs overall.

The AMD card wins on power efficiency per performance metric. It delivers 12.19 TFLOPS FP32 within a 70 W envelope, while the Intel card delivers 12.29 TFLOPS FP32 within a 400 W envelope. The FP32 throughput is nearly identical, but the power draw is not. The AMD card also launches at 429 USD MSRP, while the Intel card launches at 1,199 USD MSRP.

Architecture Differences

The two cards come from fundamentally different design lineages. The AMD Radeon PRO W7500 uses the Navi 33 chip built on RDNA 3.0 architecture, codenamed Hotpink Bonefish, and belongs to the Radeon Pro Navi (Navi III Series) generation. The Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual uses the BMG-G21 chip built on Xe2-HPG architecture and belongs to the Battlemage (Pro Series) generation.

The manufacturing processes differ. AMD uses a 6 nm process at TSMC, while Intel uses a 5 nm process at the same foundry. The Intel chip packs more transistors: 19,600 million on a 272 mm² die, yielding a transistor density of 72.1M per mm². The AMD chip contains 13,300 million transistors on a 204 mm² die, yielding 65.2M per mm². The Intel chip is physically larger and denser.

Clock behavior differs significantly. The AMD card runs a 1500 MHz base clock and 1700 MHz boost clock. The Intel card runs a 2000 MHz base clock and 2400 MHz boost clock. The Intel card's memory runs at 2375 MHz with 19 Gbps effective speed, while the AMD card's memory runs at 2000 MHz with 16 Gbps effective speed.

Shader and fixed-function hardware allocations differ. The AMD card has 1792 shading units, 112 TMUs, 64 ROPs, and 28 RT cores. The Intel card has 2560 shading units, 160 TMUs, 80 ROPs, and 20 RT cores. The Intel card has more of everything except ray tracing cores. Neither card has tensor cores listed in the database.

API support matches across both cards. Both support DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4. Both use DisplayPort 2.1 outputs, though AMD provides 4x DisplayPort 2.1 while Intel provides 4x mini-DisplayPort 2.1. The Intel card uses a 16-pin power connector and occupies a dual-slot width, while the AMD card has no power connector and a single-slot width.

Release timing differs substantially. The AMD card launched on 2023-08-02, with the Radeon Pro Vega as its predecessor. The Intel card launched on 2025-09-04, with no predecessor recorded. Both remain in active production.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The database contains no head-to-head benchmark results between these two cards. The AMD Radeon PRO W7500 has its own benchmark suite, while the Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual has no recorded benchmark scores at all. The average benchmark score for the AMD card is 16415, and its percentile versus all GPUs is 59. The Intel card's average benchmark score is 0, and its percentile is 50.

The AMD card's nearest rivals in the database provide context for its performance tier. The NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell averages 16408, within 0 percent of the AMD card. The AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT averages 16361, 0.3 percent behind. The AMD Radeon Pro 5600M averages 16351, 0.4 percent behind. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 D V2 averages 16504, 0.5 percent ahead. These tight margins place the W7500 in a narrow performance band.

The AMD card's individual benchmark results show its strengths. In Geekbench OpenCL it scores 58213, and in Geekbench Vulkan it scores 68634. Passmark results show 13368 in G3D, 1174 in G2D, and 5910 in GPU compute. Legacy DirectX tests show 200 in DirectX 9, 125 in DirectX 11, 65 in DirectX 10, and 46 in DirectX 12. These figures suggest the card performs best in compute-oriented workloads and older DirectX paths.

The Intel card offers no comparable data. Its specification sheet indicates higher clocks, more memory, and more bandwidth, but the database cannot confirm actual performance. The FP32 compute figures are close: 12.19 TFLOPS for AMD versus 12.29 TFLOPS for Intel. FP16 figures are similarly close at 24.37 TFLOPS for AMD and 24.58 TFLOPS for Intel. The Intel card's advantage lies in memory and fill rates, not raw compute throughput.

The Verdict

The data points to different use cases for each card. The AMD Radeon PRO W7500 suits environments where power draw, physical space, and system integration matter most. Its 70 W TDP, single-slot design, and lack of power connectors allow installation in small form factor workstations without PSU upgrades. Its 28 RT cores exceed the Intel card's count, and its benchmark percentile of 59 versus the Intel card's 50 suggests the AMD card sits higher in the overall GPU distribution, though the Intel card has no recorded scores to confirm this.

The Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual targets workloads that demand large memory capacity and high bandwidth. Its 24 GB frame buffer and 456.0 GB/s bandwidth serve data-heavy professional tasks better than the AMD card's 8 GB and 256.0 GB/s. The higher pixel and texture rates indicate stronger rasterization throughput. The PCIe 5.0 interface doubles the lane speed of the AMD card's PCIe 4.0 link.

Compute throughput is effectively a tie. The FP32 difference is 0.10 TFLOPS, and the FP16 difference is 0.21 TFLOPS, both favoring Intel but within noise. The real separation comes from memory capacity, fill rates, power consumption, and physical requirements.

The AMD card is the practical choice for constrained builds and power-sensitive deployments. The Intel card is the choice when memory size and bandwidth dominate the requirement list, provided the system can supply 400 W through a 16-pin connector and accommodate a 300 mm dual-slot card. The launch MSRP difference reflects this gap in capability and positioning.
