Where Each One Wins

The AMD Radeon PRO W7900 wins decisively in raw compute, memory bandwidth, and rendering throughput. Its FP32 output of 61.32 TFLOPS supports heavy simulation, rendering, and compute workloads. The 48 GB GDDR6 frame buffer with 864.0 GB/s bandwidth provides capacity for large datasets and high-resolution textures. The pixel rate of 479.0 GPixel/s and texture rate of 958.1 GTexel/s indicate sustained fill-rate performance for demanding graphics pipelines. The triple-slot design with dual 8-pin power connectors and a 600 W suggested PSU reflects a workstation-class card built for sustained operation.

The Intel Arc B370 wins in power efficiency and physical footprint. Its 25 W TDP is a fraction of the AMD part's 295 W, and it requires no power connectors, drawing power entirely from the host system. It is an integrated graphics processor (IGP), so it occupies no expansion slot and has no separate dimensions. This makes it suitable for compact or portable devices where space and thermal limits are constrained. Its FP16 output of 12.29 TFLOPS, achieved at a 2:1 ratio, shows it can accelerate mixed-precision workloads despite its modest FP32 capability. The 10 ray tracing cores provide baseline RT support for compatible applications.

The benchmark data confirms the split: the AMD card wins on every performance metric recorded, while the Intel part wins on integration and power draw. There is no recorded scenario where the Intel Arc B370 outperforms the AMD Radeon PRO W7900 in computational speed, memory capacity, or bandwidth. The AMD part's 94th percentile ranking versus the Intel part's 5th percentile leaves no ambiguity about which card handles demanding workloads. The Intel part's role is confined to light graphics duty in power-constrained systems.

Specification Differences

The two GPUs differ across nearly every recorded specification. The AMD Radeon PRO W7900 uses 6,144 shading units, 384 texture mapping units, and 192 raster output units. The Intel Arc B370 uses 1,280 shading units, 40 TMUs, and 20 ROPs. Ray tracing cores number 96 on the AMD card versus 10 on the Intel part.

Memory configurations diverge completely. The AMD card has 48 GB of GDDR6 on a 384-bit bus with 864.0 GB/s bandwidth. The Intel part uses system shared memory with a system dependent bandwidth figure and no dedicated bus width. Clock speeds also differ: the AMD card runs at a 1760 MHz base and 2495 MHz boost, while the Intel part runs at a 300 MHz base and 2400 MHz boost. Memory clock for the AMD card is 2250 MHz at 18 Gbps effective, while the Intel part has no dedicated memory clock.

Power and physical specifications show equally stark differences. The AMD card has a 295 W TDP, triple-slot width, dual 8-pin power connectors, and a 600 W suggested PSU. The Intel part has a 25 W TDP, an IGP slot width, no power connectors, and no suggested PSU. The AMD card measures 280 mm in length, 110 mm in height, and 51 mm in width. The Intel part has no recorded dimensions. The AMD card uses a PCIe 4.0 x16 bus interface, while the Intel part uses an IGP interface. Display outputs for the AMD card are three DisplayPort 2.1 and one mini-DisplayPort 2.1, while the Intel part's outputs are portable device dependent.

The AMD card's FP32 and FP16 performance are both 61.32 TFLOPS at a 1:1 ratio. The Intel part's FP32 is 6.144 TFLOPS and FP16 is 12.29 TFLOPS at a 2:1 ratio. Production status for both is currently active. The AMD card was released on 2023-05-25, while the Intel part was released on 2026-01-26.

Architecture Differences

The AMD Radeon PRO W7900 is built on the Navi 31 chip using RDNA 3.0 architecture, with the codename Plum Bonito. It belongs to the Radeon Pro Navi generation, specifically the Navi III Series. The chip is manufactured on a 5 nm process at TSMC, containing 57,700 million transistors on a 529 mm² die, giving a transistor density of 109.1 million per square millimeter. Its predecessor is the Radeon Pro Vega.

The Intel Arc B370 uses the Panther Lake chip with Xe3-LPG architecture. It belongs to the Arc Graphics-M generation, specifically Panther Lake. The chip is manufactured on a 3 nm process at Intel. Transistor count, die size, and transistor density are all listed as unknown. It has no recorded predecessor or successor.

Both parts support DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4. Neither part lists tensor cores. The AMD card's RDNA 3.0 architecture is designed for discrete workstation deployments with high-bandwidth memory and full-size cooling. The Intel part's Xe3-LPG architecture is built for integrated graphics within a processor package, sharing system memory and relying on the host's thermal solution.

The AMD card's 96 ray tracing cores and 192 ROPs reflect a full-scale discrete GPU design. The Intel part's 10 ray tracing cores and 20 ROPs indicate a scaled-down integrated solution. The AMD card's 57,700 million transistors on a 5 nm TSMC process enable its high compute throughput. The Intel part's 3 nm Intel process, while more advanced in node, operates within the constraints of an integrated design where power and thermal budgets are limited.

The Verdict

The benchmark data shows the AMD Radeon PRO W7900 is the clear choice for any workload requiring substantial compute, memory capacity, or rendering throughput. Its average score of 110,725 versus the Intel Arc B370's 1,184, its 94th versus 5th percentile standing, and its 61.32 TFLOPS FP32 versus 6.144 TFLOPS all point to a professional workstation card suited for serious graphics and compute tasks. The 48 GB GDDR6 memory with 864.0 GB/s bandwidth supports large models, high-resolution rendering, and data-intensive simulations. The card's active production status and launch MSRP of 3,999 USD position it as a high-end professional offering.

The Intel Arc B370 serves a different purpose entirely. Its 25 W TDP, IGP form factor, and system shared memory make it appropriate for portable or low-power devices where discrete graphics is not feasible. Its 5th percentile ranking places it near legacy parts like the ATI Radeon HD 5770, which scored 1,190. The Intel part's 10 ray tracing cores and 12.29 TFLOPS FP16 output provide some modern feature support, but its FP32 of 6.144 TFLOPS limits it to light graphics and basic compute.

Users with rendering, simulation, or AI-adjacent workloads should select the AMD Radeon PRO W7900 based on its recorded performance. Users needing integrated graphics within a power envelope below 30 W should consider the Intel Arc B370. The data does not support any scenario where the Intel part matches or exceeds the AMD card in performance, but the Intel part's integration advantages make it the only option for systems without discrete GPU slots. The AMD card's predecessor, the Radeon Pro Vega, and its nearest rivals, including the NVIDIA RTX A5500 Mobile and Tesla V100, all sit within a few percentage points of its average score, confirming its position among capable workstation GPUs. The Intel part's rivals, by contrast, are all over a decade old, reinforcing its entry-level status.
