Analysis: AMD Radeon RX 7600 vs Intel Arc Pro B390
The Verdict
The data presents an unusual comparison. The AMD Radeon RX 7600 is a fully measured, active discrete graphics card with a substantial suite of benchmark results, while the Intel Arc Pro B390 is an integrated graphics processor (IGP) with no recorded benchmark scores in the database. The RX 7600 carries a 57th percentile ranking among all GPUs, whereas the Arc Pro B390 sits at the 50th percentile, a figure that reflects its status as an unmeasured entry rather than a competitive performance tier.
For anyone seeking a discrete graphics solution with verified performance data, the RX 7600 is the only option with measurable results. The Arc Pro B390, with its IGP designation and system-dependent memory, targets a fundamentally different use case: portable devices where integrated graphics are the only option. The RX 7600 delivers 21.75 TFLOPS of FP32 compute and 288.0 GB/s of dedicated memory bandwidth, while the Arc Pro B390 offers 7.680 TFLOPS and relies on shared system memory. The verdict from the recorded data is clear: the RX 7600 is for desktop builds requiring known, benchmarked performance; the Arc Pro B390 is for integrated scenarios where its 80 W TDP and lack of power connectors make it suitable for compact, power-conscious platforms.
Where Each One Wins
The RX 7600 wins in every category where measurement exists. Its benchmark suite includes 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 at 2310 points, Geekbench OpenCL at 88051, Geekbench Vulkan at 34401, and Passmark G3D at 16634. These are concrete, recorded results that establish its position in the 57th percentile of all GPUs. The Arc Pro B390 has no benchmark entries, so it cannot claim a single recorded win.
Where the Arc Pro B390 wins is in architectural efficiency and platform integration. It uses a 3 nm process node from Intel, compared to the 6 nm TSMC node of the RX 7600. Its 80 W TDP is less than half of the RX 7600's 165 W. It requires no power connectors and occupies no expansion slot, being designated as an IGP. Its memory configuration is system-shared, meaning it uses whatever bandwidth the host platform provides, which is system dependent. For ultra-portable or integrated designs, the Arc Pro B390's low power envelope and lack of discrete cooling requirements give it a structural advantage, even though no performance numbers exist to quantify it.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks
The head-to-head benchmark table is empty, and the win counts for both items are zero. This reflects the complete absence of measured scores for the Arc Pro B390. The RX 7600, however, has a full suite of ten benchmark results that define its performance profile.
In 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12, the RX 7600 scores 2310. This benchmark measures modern DirectX 12 gaming workloads and places the card in the 57th percentile of all GPUs. Its average benchmark score across all tests is 15171. The nearest rivals in the database provide context: the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 OEM averages 15199, a delta of -0.2 percent, meaning the RX 7600 trails by a negligible margin. The AMD Radeon Pro 560X averages 15082, a delta of 0.6 percent, putting the RX 7600 slightly ahead. The AMD Radeon 680M averages 15270, a delta of -0.7 percent, and the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 Ti averages 15063, a delta of 0.7 percent.
In Geekbench OpenCL, the RX 7600 reaches 88051 points, a strong showing for compute workloads. Its Geekbench Vulkan score is 34401, indicating solid graphics API performance under Vulkan. Passmark results break down by DirectX version: DirectX 9 at 226, DirectX 10 at 84, DirectX 11 at 172, and DirectX 12 at 58. The Passmark G3D score is 16634, and the Passmark G2D score is 984. GPU compute in Passmark is 8790.
The Arc Pro B390 has no corresponding scores. Its percentile rank of 50 is the default baseline for an unmeasured GPU, and its average benchmark score is recorded as zero. This means any comparison of raw numbers is impossible; the only quantitative facts are architectural specifications. The Arc Pro B390's FP16 throughput of 15.36 TFLOPS is higher than its FP32 figure of 7.680 TFLOPS due to the 2:1 ratio, whereas the RX 7600 runs FP16 and FP32 at the same 21.75 TFLOPS. The RX 7600's texture rate of 339.8 GTexel/s is nearly three times the Arc Pro B390's 120.0 GTexel/s, and its pixel rate of 169.9 GPixel/s is also roughly 2.8 times higher than 60.00 GPixel/s.
The RX 7600 also has a larger memory footprint at 8 GB dedicated versus system-shared on the Arc Pro B390. The RX 7600's memory clock of 2250 MHz with 18 Gbps effective is a fixed specification, while the Arc Pro B390's memory clock is simply listed as "System Shared." The RX 7600 uses a PCIe 4.0 x8 bus interface, while the Arc Pro B390 uses an IGP bus interface with no expansion slot requirement. The RX 7600 measures 204 mm in length and 115 mm in height, while the Arc Pro B390 has no recorded dimensions, consistent with its integrated nature.
The production status for both is Active. The RX 7600's release date is May 24, 2023, making it a mature product with extensive data. The Arc Pro B390's release date is January 26, 2026, a future entry with no performance records yet. The RX 7600 has a launch MSRP of 269 USD. The Arc Pro B390 has no launch MSRP recorded. The RX 7600's predecessor is Navi II and its successor is Navi IV; the Arc Pro B390's predecessor is HD Graphics-WM and it has no recorded successor.
The data indicates that the RX 7600 is a fully characterized discrete GPU with a clear performance tier, while the Arc Pro B390 is an unmeasured integrated part whose specifications suggest efficiency-focused design rather than raw performance. The 57th versus 50th percentile ranking is the only comparative global metric available, and it underscores the absence of test data for the Intel part. Any performance claims about the Arc Pro B390 would require measurements that have not yet been recorded in the database.
