AMD Radeon PRO W7700 vs Intel Arc Graphics 2 Xe Mobile Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The comparison between the AMD Radeon PRO W7700 and the Intel Arc Graphics 2 Xe Mobile is defined by a stark statistical gap. The database records a single average benchmark score for the AMD part at 118,976, placing it in the 95th percentile of all GPUs. The Intel Arc Graphics 2 Xe Mobile, by contrast, has no recorded benchmark scores in the database, an average score of 0, and sits at the 50th percentile. This is not a competitive matchup; it is a tier separation.

The AMD Radeon PRO W7700 posts a Geekbench OpenCL score of 108,245 and a Geekbench Vulkan score of 129,706. The Intel part has no comparable results to measure against. The AMD part's average score of 118,976 places it narrowly ahead of the NVIDIA GB10, which averages 117,393, a lead of 1.3%. It also edges out the NVIDIA RTX 4000 SFF Ada Generation, which scores 117,088, a margin of 1.6%. The gap widens against the NVIDIA Tesla V100 SXM2 16 GB, which averages 114,395, a 4% advantage, and the NVIDIA RTX A5500 Mobile, which averages 113,944, putting the AMD part 4.4% ahead. These are tight margins, indicating the Radeon PRO W7700 competes in a dense cluster of high-end workstation GPUs, despite its complete absence of head-to-head data against the Intel mobile part.

The Intel Arc Graphics 2 Xe Mobile, with no benchmarks and no rival entries, cannot be positioned on any performance curve. The database's 50th percentile ranking is a default placement, not a measured result. The AMD Radeon PRO W7700's 95th percentile ranking reflects a device that outperforms the vast majority of all recorded GPUs. The recorded data shows no benchmark wins for either side, as the head-to-head benchmark field is empty, but the aggregate scoring paints a definitive picture: the AMD card operates in a performance class that the Intel IGP has no data to challenge.

The Verdict

The data dictates a clear choice for compute-heavy workloads. The AMD Radeon PRO W7700 delivers a measured average score of 118,976, while the Intel Arc Graphics 2 Xe Mobile has no recorded score. The AMD part also offers 16 GB of dedicated GDDR6 memory on a 256-bit bus with 576.0 GB/s of bandwidth. The Intel IGP relies on system shared memory with system-dependent bandwidth, which is a fundamentally different memory architecture with no fixed performance ceiling.

The Intel Arc Graphics 2 Xe Mobile is an integrated graphics processor with a 25 W TDP, a 300 MHz base clock, and a 2,500 MHz boost clock. It has 256 shading units, 16 TMUs, 8 ROPs, and 2 ray tracing cores. Its FP32 throughput is 1,280.0 GFLOPS. These are specifications for a low-power, portable-device IGP. The AMD Radeon PRO W7700, with its 190 W TDP, 3,072 shading units, 192 TMUs, 96 ROPs, and 48 ray tracing cores, delivers 31.95 TFLOPS of FP32 performance. That is a 24.96 TFLOPS difference in raw compute, a figure derived directly from the recorded data.

For users requiring a discrete workstation GPU with professional display outputs, the AMD Radeon PRO W7700 is the only choice supported by measurements. It carries a launch MSRP of 999 USD. The Intel part targets portable devices, consumes no external power, and uses no dedicated memory. The database shows no scenario where the Intel IGP outperforms the AMD card, and with no benchmark scores recorded for the Intel part, any performance claim would lack evidentiary support.

Architecture Differences

The two GPUs come from different manufacturing and design philosophies. The AMD Radeon PRO W7700 uses the Navi 32 chip, built on RDNA 3.0 architecture with the codename Wheat Nas. It belongs to the Radeon Pro Navi generation, specifically the Navi III Series. The process node is 5 nm, fabricated by TSMC. The die measures 346 mm² and contains 28,100 million transistors, yielding a transistor density of 81.2 million per mm². The base clock is 1,900 MHz, boosting to 2,600 MHz. Memory runs at 2,250 MHz, or 18 Gbps effective.

The Intel Arc Graphics 2 Xe Mobile uses the Wildcat Lake chip, built on Xe3-LPG architecture. It belongs to the Arc Graphics-M generation, also labeled Wildcat Lake. The process node is 3 nm, fabricated by Intel. Transistor count and die size are listed as unknown, and transistor density is not recorded. The base clock is a much lower 300 MHz, with a boost clock of 2,500 MHz. Memory is system shared, with no dedicated VRAM, no fixed bus width, and no specified bandwidth.

The AMD card has 3,072 shading units, 192 texture mapping units, and 96 raster output units. The Intel IGP has 256 shading units, 16 TMUs, and 8 ROPs. Ray tracing hardware differs as well: AMD integrates 48 ray tracing cores, while Intel includes just 2. The AMD card's pixel rate is 249.6 GPixel/s and its texture rate is 499.2 GTexel/s. The Intel part delivers 20.00 GPixel/s and 40.00 GTexel/s. The AMD card's FP16 output is 63.90 TFLOPS at a 2:1 ratio, while the Intel part produces 2.560 TFLOPS at the same ratio.

Power and physical design diverge sharply. The AMD Radeon PRO W7700 is a dual-slot card with a 190 W TDP, a single 8-pin power connector, and a suggested power supply of 450 W. It measures 241 mm in length and 111 mm in height. The Intel Arc Graphics 2 Xe Mobile is an IGP with a 25 W TDP, no power connectors, and no suggested PSU. It has no recorded dimensions. The AMD card uses a PCIe 4.0 x16 bus interface; the Intel part uses an integrated graphics processor bus interface. Display outputs on the AMD card are four DisplayPort 2.1 connections, while the Intel IGP's outputs are described as portable device dependent.

Where Each One Wins

The AMD Radeon PRO W7700 wins in every measurable compute category. Its FP32 performance of 31.95 TFLOPS dwarfs the Intel part's 1,280.0 GFLOPS. Its texture rate of 499.2 GTexel/s exceeds the Intel IGP's 40.00 GTexel/s by a large margin. Its pixel rate of 249.6 GPixel/s compares to 20.00 GPixel/s on the Intel side. The AMD card's 576.0 GB/s of dedicated memory bandwidth is a fixed specification, while the Intel IGP's memory bandwidth is system dependent, meaning it varies by host platform. The AMD card also has 16 GB of dedicated GDDR6, compared to the Intel part's system shared memory.

The Intel Arc Graphics 2 Xe Mobile wins in power efficiency and integration. Its 25 W TDP is dramatically lower than the AMD card's 190 W TDP. It requires no power connectors and no suggested PSU, making it suitable for portable devices. Its 3 nm process node, fabricated by Intel, is a smaller node than the AMD card's 5 nm TSMC process. The Intel part's base clock of 300 MHz is far lower than the AMD card's 1,900 MHz, but its boost clock of 2,500 MHz approaches the AMD card's 2,600 MHz boost. The Intel IGP's production status is active, while the AMD card's production status is not recorded.

For workstation users, the AMD Radeon PRO W7700 provides four DisplayPort 2.1 outputs, a dual-slot form factor, and a PCIe 4.0 x16 interface. The Intel IGP offers no discrete display outputs beyond what the portable device supports and no bus interface beyond the integrated graphics processor connection. The AMD card's 95th percentile ranking places it among the top GPUs in the database, while the Intel part's 50th percentile is a default position with no supporting scores. The recorded data shows no benchmark wins for the Intel part, and no head-to-head results exist to suggest any workload where it would close the gap.
