AMD Radeon PRO W7600 vs Intel Arc A570M Comparison

Where Each One Wins

The benchmark data splits cleanly between these two GPUs, but only one test, Geekbench OpenCL, is available for both. The AMD Radeon PRO W7600 wins that test outright with a score of 81528 against the Intel Arc A570M's 58239, a 40% advantage. That is the only head-to-head result recorded in the database, so the AMD part takes all measured wins. The Intel Arc A570M has no wins in the head-to-head comparison.

The AMD Radeon PRO W7600 also has a second benchmark result, Geekbench Vulkan, where it scores 92688. The Intel Arc A570M has no Vulkan entry in the database, so no direct comparison is possible there. The AMD card's average benchmark score across all recorded tests is 87108, while the Intel card averages 58239 from its single OpenCL result. The AMD part sits at the 93rd percentile of all GPUs in the database; the Intel part sits at the 88th percentile. Both are strong positions, but the AMD card ranks higher overall.

For workloads that stress OpenCL compute, the data indicates the AMD Radeon PRO W7600 is the clear choice. For any workload that might favor the Intel Arc A570M, the database records no benchmark win to support that selection. The Intel card's only measured result places it 40% behind the AMD card in raw OpenCL performance.

Architecture Differences

These two GPUs come from different design philosophies. The AMD Radeon PRO W7600 uses the Navi 33 chip built on the RDNA 3.0 architecture, with the codename "Hotpink Bonefish." It belongs to the Radeon Pro Navi generation, specifically the Navi III Series. The Intel Arc A570M uses the DG2-256 chip built on the Xe-HPG architecture and belongs to the Alchemist generation, specifically the Arc 5 Mobile segment.

Both chips are fabricated by TSMC on a 6 nm process node, so process technology is identical. The transistor counts differ, though. The AMD chip packs 13,300 million transistors on a 204 mm² die, giving a transistor density of 65.2 million transistors per square millimeter. The Intel chip has 11,500 million transistors on a larger 269 mm² die, yielding a lower density of 42.8 million transistors per square millimeter. The AMD design is more compact and denser.

Clock speeds show a major divergence. The AMD Radeon PRO W7600 runs a base clock of 1720 MHz and a boost clock of 2440 MHz. The Intel Arc A570M runs a base clock of 900 MHz and a boost clock of 1300 MHz. The AMD card's boost clock is nearly double the Intel card's base clock. Memory clocks also differ: the AMD card runs memory at 2250 MHz with 18 Gbps effective speed, while the Intel card runs memory at 1750 MHz with 14 Gbps effective speed.

Memory capacity is equal at 8 GB of GDDR6 on a 128-bit bus, but bandwidth differs. The AMD card delivers 288.0 GB/s, the Intel card delivers 224.0 GB/s. The AMD card also leads in pixel rate (156.2 GPixel/s vs 83.20 GPixel/s), texture rate (312.3 GTexel/s vs 166.4 GTexel/s), FP32 throughput (19.99 TFLOPS vs 5.325 TFLOPS), and FP16 throughput (39.98 TFLOPS vs 10.65 TFLOPS, both at 2:1 ratio).

Ray tracing hardware differs significantly. The AMD card has 32 ray tracing cores, while the Intel card has 16. Shading units are identical at 2048, as are TMUs at 128 and ROPs at 64. Both support DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4, so API coverage matches.

Power and physical design separate them further. The AMD Radeon PRO W7600 has a 130 W TDP, is a single-slot card, uses one 6-pin power connector, and requires a 300 W suggested power supply. It measures 241 mm (9.5 inches) long and 115 mm (4.5 inches) high. The Intel Arc A570M has a 75 W TDP, is an IGP (integrated graphics processor) form factor, has no power connectors listed, and no suggested PSU. Its dimensions are not recorded. The AMD card is a discrete board; the Intel part is designed for portable devices, and its display outputs are listed as "Portable Device Dependent." The AMD card provides 4x DisplayPort 2.1 outputs.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The database records exactly one head-to-head benchmark between these two GPUs: Geekbench OpenCL. The AMD Radeon PRO W7600 scores 81528, and the Intel Arc A570M scores 58239. The delta is 40% in favor of the AMD card. That is a decisive margin, not a narrow one. In practical terms, the AMD card completes OpenCL work roughly 40% faster than the Intel part according to the recorded data.

The AMD card's additional Vulkan result of 92688 is worth noting even without an Intel counterpart. It exceeds the AMD card's own OpenCL score by 11160 points, suggesting the RDNA 3.0 architecture handles Vulkan compute even better than OpenCL. The Intel card has no such data point, so its Vulkan behavior is unmeasured.

Context from the nearest rivals reinforces the AMD card's standing. The Radeon PRO W7600's average benchmark score of 87108 places it just 0.4% behind the NVIDIA Quadro GP100 (87445), 1.7% ahead of the NVIDIA CMP 40HX (85637), 4.4% behind the NVIDIA RTX A4500 Mobile (91134), and 5% behind the NVIDIA RTX A4500 (91671). The AMD card is effectively in the same performance tier as those NVIDIA workstation parts, within a few percentage points either way.

The Intel Arc A570M's average score of 58239 places it 0.3% behind the AMD Radeon RX 6950 XT (58392), 0.3% ahead of the AMD Radeon RX 5600 OEM (58085), 0.5% behind the NVIDIA P102-100 (58528), and 0.7% behind the AMD Radeon PRO V710 (58657). The Intel card sits in a different performance tier entirely, roughly 33% below the AMD Radeon PRO W7600's average score when comparing their respective averages.

The percentile rankings tell the same story. The AMD card's 93rd percentile means it outperforms 93% of all GPUs in the database. The Intel card's 88th percentile means it outperforms 88% of all GPUs. Both are above average, but the AMD card sits five percentile points higher.

The Verdict

The AMD Radeon PRO W7600 is the faster GPU in every measurable comparison in the database. Its Geekbench OpenCL score of 81528 beats the Intel Arc A570M's 58239 by 40%. Its average benchmark score of 87108 places it at the 93rd percentile of all GPUs, compared to the Intel card's 88th percentile and 58239 average. If the task is OpenCL compute, the choice is unambiguous: the AMD card wins by a wide margin.

The AMD card also carries architectural advantages that align with its benchmark lead. It has double the ray tracing cores (32 vs 16), nearly double the boost clock (2440 MHz vs 1300 MHz), higher memory bandwidth (288.0 GB/s vs 224.0 GB/s), and roughly 3.75 times the FP32 throughput (19.99 TFLOPS vs 5.325 TFLOPS). Its pixel rate and texture rate are similarly elevated. These are not marginal differences; they are structural gaps.

The Intel Arc A570M has one practical advantage: power consumption. Its 75 W TDP is 55 W lower than the AMD card's 130 W TDP. It is also an IGP form factor with no power connectors, designed for portable devices, whereas the AMD card is a single-slot discrete card requiring a 6-pin connector and a 300 W power supply. For a low-power mobile system, the Intel part is the only one of the two that fits that envelope. The AMD card's dimensions (241 mm long, 115 mm high) and slot design make it a workstation board, not a mobile component.

For users who need maximum compute performance in a workstation context, the database points squarely to the AMD Radeon PRO W7600. Its launch MSRP is 599 USD. For users constrained to a portable, low-power platform, the Intel Arc A570M is the applicable choice, but the recorded data shows it sacrifices roughly 40% OpenCL performance to get there. The verdict follows the numbers: pick the AMD card for performance, pick the Intel card only if the 75 W IGP form factor is a hard requirement.
