AMD Radeon PRO W7600 vs Intel Arc B390 Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The recorded data shows a decisive performance gap between the AMD Radeon PRO W7600 and the Intel Arc B390. The AMD part posts an average benchmark score of 87108, while the Intel Arc B390 averages 1482. That difference places the two cards in completely separate performance tiers. The AMD Radeon PRO W7600 sits at the 93rd percentile of all GPUs in the database, whereas the Intel Arc B390 lands at the 9th percentile.

Looking at the specific tests available, the AMD Radeon PRO W7600 delivers 81528 in Geekbench OpenCL and 92688 in Geekbench Vulkan. The Intel Arc B390 has only one recorded benchmark, a 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 1482. Direct score-to-score comparison across different test suites is not possible, but the percentile data and rival positioning tell the same story: the AMD card operates at a far higher performance level.

The nearest rivals in the database reinforce this separation. The AMD Radeon PRO W7600 is compared against workstation and mining-class parts with average scores close to its own. Its closest rival, the NVIDIA Quadro GP100, averages 87445, which is 0.4% higher. The NVIDIA CMP 40HX averages 85637, putting it 1.7% below the AMD card. The NVIDIA RTX A4500 Mobile and RTX A4500 sit 4.4% and 5% higher respectively, with average scores of 91134 and 91671. The AMD card is therefore bracketed by professional hardware in the 85,000 to 92,000 score range, a tight cluster where the W7600 is competitive.

The Intel Arc B390, by contrast, is grouped with much older or lower-end parts. Its nearest rival, the NVIDIA GeForce GT 520MX, averages 1463, which is 1.3% lower. The NVIDIA GeForce 800M averages 1460, 1.5% lower. The NVIDIA GeForce GT 625 OEM averages 1446, 2.5% lower, and the NVIDIA GeForce GT 710 averages 1443, 2.7% lower. The Intel part leads this group by small margins, but those margins are over hardware from a different era of GPU design. The delta percentages are all under 3%, indicating that the Arc B390 is not far ahead of its nearest rivals, while the AMD card competes within a much higher-scoring peer group.

Architecture Differences

The two GPUs share the same API support profile: both list DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4. Beyond that, the underlying designs diverge sharply.

The AMD Radeon PRO W7600 uses the Navi 33 chip on the RDNA 3.0 architecture, with the codename Hotpink Bonefish. It is built on a 6 nm process at TSMC, with 13,300 million transistors on a 204 mm² die, giving a transistor density of 65.2 million per square millimeter. The Intel Arc B390 uses the Panther Lake chip on the Xe3-LPG architecture, built on a 3 nm process at Intel. Its transistor count and die size are listed as unknown in the database, so no density figure is available.

Core configuration differs substantially. The AMD card carries 2048 shading units, 128 texture mapping units, 64 render output units, and 32 ray tracing cores. The Intel part has 1536 shading units, 48 TMUs, 24 ROPs, and 12 ray tracing cores. In every counted unit category, the AMD Radeon PRO W7600 has more hardware resources.

Clock behavior is also distinct. The AMD Radeon PRO W7600 runs a base clock of 1720 MHz and a boost clock of 2440 MHz. The Intel Arc B390 has a base clock of just 300 MHz and a boost of 2500 MHz. The AMD card therefore sustains a much higher floor under load, while the Intel part relies on a large boost multiplier from a very low idle base.

Memory architecture is a fundamental split. The AMD Radeon PRO W7600 has 8 GB of GDDR6 on a 128-bit bus, delivering 288.0 GB/s of bandwidth, with memory clocked at 2250 MHz and 18 Gbps effective. The Intel Arc B390 uses system shared memory, with the type, bus width, and bandwidth all listed as system dependent. That means the Intel part has no dedicated VRAM and its memory performance is tied to the host platform.

Rates and throughput numbers reflect the resource gap. The AMD card posts a pixel rate of 156.2 GPixel/s, a texture rate of 312.3 GTexel/s, FP32 performance of 19.99 TFLOPS, and FP16 of 39.98 TFLOPS. The Intel Arc B390 posts 60.00 GPixel/s, 120.0 GTexel/s, 7.680 TFLOPS FP32, and 15.36 TFLOPS FP16. The AMD part is roughly 2.6 times faster in pixel rate and texture rate, and about 2.6 times faster in FP32 throughput.

Power and physical design also differ. The AMD Radeon PRO W7600 has a 130 W TDP, is a single-slot card, requires one 6-pin power connector, and suggests a 300 W power supply. It uses a PCIe 4.0 x8 bus interface and provides 4x DisplayPort 2.1 outputs. The Intel Arc B390 is an integrated graphics processor with an 80 W TDP, no power connectors, no suggested PSU figure, an IGP bus interface, and display outputs that depend on the portable device. The AMD card measures 241 mm in length and 115 mm in height; the Intel part has no listed dimensions.

The Verdict

The benchmark data indicates that the AMD Radeon PRO W7600 is the clear performance leader by every measured metric. Its average score of 87108 versus 1482 is a categorical separation. The percentile ranking of 93 versus 9 confirms that the AMD card belongs to a much higher tier of GPU performance in the database.

The AMD Radeon PRO W7600 is a dedicated discrete graphics card with its own 8 GB of GDDR6 memory, 288.0 GB/s of bandwidth, and a full complement of compute resources. It is built for sustained professional workloads, as shown by its high FP32 and FP16 throughput and its position among workstation-class rivals like the NVIDIA Quadro GP100 and RTX A4500.

The Intel Arc B390 is an integrated solution on the Panther Lake chip, sharing system memory and delivering far lower throughput numbers. Its nearest rivals are legacy NVIDIA parts such as the GeForce GT 710 and GT 520MX, which places it in a fundamentally different performance class. The 3 nm process gives it a modern manufacturing advantage, but the recorded benchmarks do not translate that into competitive compute results.

For workloads that require dedicated graphics memory, high bandwidth, and substantial shader throughput, the AMD Radeon PRO W7600 is the only viable option between these two. The Intel Arc B390 may be appropriate where an integrated GPU is a requirement, but the data shows no scenario in which it outperforms the AMD part.

Where Each One Wins

The AMD Radeon PRO W7600 wins in every recorded benchmark category. Its Geekbench OpenCL score of 81528 and Geekbench Vulkan score of 92688 are the only direct performance measurements for the AMD card, and both are far above the Intel part's single 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 1482. The AMD card also wins on raw compute specifications: higher shading unit count, higher TMU and ROP counts, higher pixel rate, higher texture rate, and higher FP32 and FP16 throughput.

The AMD Radeon PRO W7600 is positioned for discrete workstation use. It has dedicated GDDR6 memory, a PCIe 4.0 x8 interface, four DisplayPort 2.1 outputs, and a single-slot design with a 6-pin power connector. Its nearest rivals include the NVIDIA Quadro GP100 and RTX A4500, which are professional-grade parts. That grouping suggests the AMD card is suited to tasks where sustained compute throughput and dedicated memory bandwidth matter.

The Intel Arc B390 does not win any benchmark category in the recorded data. Its only advantage is structural: it is an integrated GPU with an 80 W TDP and no power connectors, meaning it requires no separate card slot and draws less power. It uses the 3 nm Intel process, which is a smaller node than the AMD card's 6 nm TSMC process, but the database records no performance benefit from that. Its nearest rivals are older NVIDIA parts like the GeForce GT 710 and GT 520MX, and it leads them by margins of 1.3% to 2.7%. That indicates the Intel part occupies a low-power, low-performance segment.

For use cases that depend on dedicated graphics memory, high bandwidth, and high shader throughput, the AMD Radeon PRO W7600 is the clear choice. For systems that require an integrated GPU with minimal power draw and no additional hardware, the Intel Arc B390 is the only one of the two that fits that form factor.
