AMD Radeon PRO W7600 vs Intel Arc A380E x2 Comparison

Where Each One Wins

The recorded data presents a clear asymmetry between these two workstation-oriented graphics cards. The AMD Radeon PRO W7600 holds every measurable performance advantage in the database, while the Intel Arc A380E x2 has no recorded benchmark scores at all. This is not a close contest based on the available measurements; it is a decisive sweep in favor of the AMD part.

The AMD Radeon PRO W7600 delivers an average benchmark score of 87,108 across its recorded tests, placing it in the 93rd percentile of all GPUs tracked by the database. Its two individual benchmark results are 81,528 in Geekbench OpenCL and 92,688 in Geekbench Vulkan. These scores establish a substantial performance floor for any workload relying on either compute API. The Vulkan result is particularly strong, exceeding the OpenCL figure by roughly 13.7 percent, which suggests the architecture extracts more throughput when operating through Vulkan's lower-level driver interface.

The Intel Arc A380E x2, by contrast, has an average benchmark score of zero and sits in the 50th percentile, with no individual test results recorded. The database contains no head-to-head benchmark comparisons between the two cards, and the Intel part has no nearest rivals listed. This absence of measured data means the Intel card cannot claim a single recorded win in any workload category. The only logical conclusion from the available information is that the AMD card wins every benchmark category where data exists, and the Intel card wins none.

For use-case segmentation, the AMD Radeon PRO W7600 is the only card with demonstrated compute capability in the database. Its Geekbench OpenCL score of 81,528 indicates strong general-purpose compute performance, suitable for tasks that leverage OpenCL acceleration. Its Geekbench Vulkan score of 92,688 indicates even stronger performance in Vulkan-based rendering and compute workloads. The Intel Arc A380E x2 has no demonstrated capability in either API based on recorded data, so any workload relying on these APIs would default to the AMD card by virtue of having measurable results at all.

The Verdict

The verdict from the database is unambiguous: the AMD Radeon PRO W7600 is the superior choice for any workload where benchmark scores matter. Its average score of 87,108 versus zero for the Intel Arc A380E x2 represents an effectively infinite percentage advantage, though the database records no head-to-head delta because no direct comparison exists. The AMD card outperforms its own nearest rivals by small margins, sitting 0.4 percent behind the NVIDIA Quadro GP100 (87,445 average score) and 1.7 percent ahead of the NVIDIA CMP 40HX (85,637). It trails the NVIDIA RTX A4500 Mobile by 4.4 percent (91,134) and the NVIDIA RTX A4500 by 5 percent (91,671).

For professionals selecting between these two specific cards, the data supports only one conclusion. The AMD Radeon PRO W7600 delivers measurable compute performance across two major APIs, ranks in the 93rd percentile of all GPUs, and maintains active production status. The Intel Arc A380E x2 delivers no recorded benchmark performance, ranks in the 50th percentile, and is marked as end-of-life with a successor already designated (Battlemage). The Intel card's predecessor is Xe Graphics, which further situates it as a bridge product rather than a current-generation workhorse.

The AMD card also offers a larger memory configuration: 8 GB of GDDR6 on a 128-bit bus with 288.0 GB/s bandwidth, compared to 6 GB of GDDR6 on a 96-bit bus with 186.0 GB/s bandwidth for the Intel card. The AMD card has more shading units (2048 versus 1024), more texture mapping units (128 versus 64), more render output units (64 versus 32), and more ray tracing cores (32 versus 8). Every architectural specification favors the AMD part, and the benchmark data confirms that specification advantage translates into measurable performance.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The database contains no head-to-head benchmark entries between the AMD Radeon PRO W7600 and the Intel Arc A380E x2. The winsA and winsB fields both record zero, meaning neither card registers a direct comparative win in any recorded test. This absence of direct comparison data does not change the overall picture, because the AMD card has standalone benchmark scores while the Intel card has none.

The AMD Radeon PRO W7600's Geekbench OpenCL score of 81,528 places it within 0.4 percent of the NVIDIA Quadro GP100's average score of 87,445, a negligible difference. Against the NVIDIA CMP 40HX, the AMD card leads by 1.7 percent. The gap to the NVIDIA RTX A4500 Mobile is 4.4 percent, and to the NVIDIA RTX A4500 it is 5 percent. These deltas position the AMD card in a competitive tier among professional GPUs, slightly below the top mobile workstation offering but above several desktop compute cards.

The Geekbench Vulkan score of 92,688 for the AMD card exceeds its own OpenCL result by 11,160 points, approximately 13.7 percent higher. This indicates that Vulkan workloads extract more throughput from the Navi 33 chip than OpenCL workloads do. The database does not record a corresponding Vulkan result for the Intel Arc A380E x2, so no cross-card comparison in that API is possible.

Since the Intel card has no recorded scores, the largest "win" in either direction is theoretical rather than measured. The AMD card's average benchmark score of 87,108 versus the Intel card's zero is the only quantitative comparison available. The percentile ranking reinforces the gap: 93rd percentile for AMD versus 50th percentile for Intel. The AMD card outperforms 93 percent of all GPUs in the database, while the Intel card sits exactly at the median, and that median position is established without any benchmark results of its own.

Architecture Differences

The two cards use fundamentally different GPU architectures from different manufacturers. The AMD Radeon PRO W7600 uses the Navi 33 chip based on RDNA 3.0 architecture, with the codename "Hotpink Bonefish." The Intel Arc A380E x2 uses the DG2-128 chip based on Xe-HPG architecture from the Alchemist generation (Arc 3). Both chips are fabricated by TSMC on a 6 nm process node, but their transistor budgets differ substantially.

The AMD chip contains 13,300 million transistors on a 204 mm² die, yielding a transistor density of 65.2 million transistors per square millimeter. The Intel chip contains 7,200 million transistors on a 157 mm² die, yielding a density of 45.9 million per square millimeter. The AMD chip has nearly double the transistor count and a 47 mm² larger die, which correlates with its higher shading unit count of 2048 versus 1024 for the Intel chip. The AMD chip also has twice the TMUs (128 versus 64), twice the ROPs (64 versus 32), and four times the ray tracing cores (32 versus 8).

The compute throughput figures reflect these architectural differences. The AMD card delivers 19.99 TFLOPS of FP32 performance and 39.98 TFLOPS of FP16 performance (at a 2:1 ratio). The Intel card delivers 4.096 TFLOPS of FP32 and 8.192 TFLOPS of FP16 (also at 2:1). The AMD card's FP32 throughput is approximately 4.9 times higher than the Intel card's.
