AMD Radeon RX 7600M vs Intel Arc B370 Comparison

The Verdict

The recorded data shows two mobile graphics processors aimed at entirely different segments of the portable market. The AMD Radeon RX 7600M sits in the high-performance tier, delivering a Geekbench OpenCL score of 63,775, which places it in the 89th percentile of all GPUs. The Intel Arc B370, by contrast, is positioned as a low-power integrated-class solution, with a 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 1,184, landing in the 5th percentile. These are not direct competitors in any practical sense. The RX 7600M is for users who need sustained rendering throughput in a thin-and-light gaming notebook, while the Arc B370 is designed for basic graphics acceleration, media playback, and light productivity in ultra-portable or low-power devices. The data indicates that the AMD part is the clear choice for compute-heavy workloads, while the Intel part is appropriate only where power consumption is the absolute priority.

Architecture Differences

The two GPUs come from different architectural lineages. AMD uses the RDNA 3.0 architecture on the Navi 33 chip, codenamed Hotpink Bonefish. This is a discrete mobile GPU built on a 6 nm TSMC process, integrating 13,300 million transistors on a 204 mm² die. The transistor density works out to 65.2 million transistors per square millimeter. Intel, in contrast, employs the Xe3-LPG architecture on the Panther Lake chip, fabricated on Intel's own 3 nm process. The database lists the transistor count and die size for the Intel part as unknown, and the memory clock is reported as System Shared.

The compute resources differ substantially. The RX 7600M has 1,792 shading units, 112 texture mapping units, 64 raster operation pipelines, and 28 ray tracing cores. The Arc B370 has 1,280 shading units, 40 texture mapping units, 20 ROPs, and 10 ray tracing cores. Neither GPU has dedicated tensor cores listed. Both support DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4, so API-level feature parity exists. The AMD part uses a PCIe 4.0 x16 bus interface, while the Intel part is integrated directly into the processor package via an IGP bus interface. Both are listed as IGP slot width with no power connectors, which means neither requires a separate power cable in its intended system design.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

Direct head-to-head benchmark comparisons are not available in the database for these two products. The only recorded measurement for the AMD Radeon RX 7600M is a Geekbench OpenCL score of 63,775. The only recorded measurement for the Intel Arc B370 is a 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 1,184. Because these are different test suites, a direct numerical comparison is not possible. However, the percentile rankings provide a useful interpretive frame. The RX 7600M sits at the 89th percentile of all GPUs, meaning it outperforms the vast majority of graphics processors in the database. Its nearest rivals include the AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT LP at 63,830 (a 0.1% deficit), the NVIDIA CMP 30HX at 63,842 (a 0.1% deficit), and the AMD Radeon Pro WX 9100 at 64,212 (a 0.7% deficit). The only rival it beats in this immediate cluster is the AMD Radeon Pro Vega 56, which scores 63,693, a 0.1% advantage for the RX 7600M.

The Arc B370, by contrast, sits at the 5th percentile. Its nearest rivals are all older or lower-end parts: the ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5570 scores 1,186 (a 0.2% deficit), the ATI Radeon HD 5770 scores 1,190 (a 0.5% deficit), and the AMD Radeon HD 7650M scores 1,192 (a 0.7% deficit). The Arc B370 does beat the AMD FirePro M2000, which scores 1,168, giving the Intel part a 1.4% advantage. These rivals are all from a much older hardware generation, which indicates the Arc B370's performance class is roughly that of a decade-old discrete GPU, not a modern high-performance part.

Specification Differences

The specification gap between the two is wide across nearly every measurable field. The RX 7600M has a base clock of 1500 MHz and a boost clock of 2410 MHz, with a game clock of 2070 MHz. The Arc B370 has a base clock of 300 MHz and a boost clock of 2400 MHz. The memory subsystems are fundamentally different. The AMD part uses 8 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 128-bit bus, delivering 256.0 GB/s of bandwidth and 16 Gbps effective memory speed. The Intel part uses System Shared memory, with the bus width and bandwidth both listed as System Dependent.

The shading throughput numbers reflect the architectural gap. The RX 7600M produces 17.27 TFLOPS of FP32 compute, 34.55 TFLOPS of FP16 (2:1 ratio), a pixel rate of 154.2 GPixel/s, and a texture rate of 269.9 GTexel/s. The Arc B370 produces 6.144 TFLOPS of FP32, 12.29 TFLOPS of FP16 (2:1), a pixel rate of 48.00 GPixel/s, and a texture rate of 96.00 GTexel/s. The AMD part has roughly 2.8 times the FP32 throughput and 3.2 times the texture rate of the Intel part. The power envelopes differ accordingly: the RX 7600M has a TDP of 90 W, while the Arc B370 has a TDP of 25 W.

The release dates also differ. The RX 7600M was released on January 3, 2023, as part of the Navi Mobile (RX 7000M) generation, with a predecessor listed as Polaris Mobile. The Arc B370 was released on January 26, 2026, as part of the Arc Graphics-M (Panther Lake) generation, with no predecessor listed. Both are marked as Active production status. Neither has a launch MSRP recorded in the database. The display outputs for both are listed as Portable Device Dependent, meaning the actual ports depend on the laptop design.

Where Each One Wins

The AMD Radeon RX 7600M wins in every compute-oriented category recorded in the database. It has more shading units (1,792 vs. 1,280), more TMUs (112 vs. 40), more ROPs (64 vs. 20), and more RT cores (28 vs. 10). Its FP32 throughput of 17.27 TFLOPS is nearly three times the Arc B370's 6.144 TFLOPS. The pixel rate of 154.2 GPixel/s versus 48.00 GPixel/s and the texture rate of 269.9 GTexel/s versus 96.00 GTexel/s reinforce the same conclusion. For any workload that involves 3D rendering, video encoding, or GPU-accelerated compute, the RX 7600M is the superior part by a wide margin. Its 8 GB of dedicated GDDR6 memory with 256.0 GB/s bandwidth also avoids the system memory contention that the Arc B370's System Shared configuration may introduce.

The Intel Arc B370 wins only in the power efficiency domain. Its 25 W TDP is less than a third of the RX 7600M's 90 W TDP. For ultra-portable devices where battery life and thermal headroom are the dominant constraints, the Arc B370 is the more appropriate choice. Its low base clock of 300 MHz suggests aggressive power gating when idle, and its 3 nm Intel process node is more advanced than the 6 nm TSMC node used by the AMD part, which may contribute to lower leakage and better idle behavior. The Arc B370's nearest rivals are all from the HD 5000 and HD 7000 generations, which places its performance in the range of basic 1080p media playback and light 2D workloads. It is not designed for competitive gaming or heavy rendering.

The database shows no head-to-head benchmark results between these two parts, so no direct win tally exists. However, the percentile gap is decisive. The RX 7600M at the 89th percentile is a high-end mobile GPU by any standard, while the Arc B370 at the 5th percentile is positioned near the bottom of the performance distribution. Users selecting a GPU for gaming, 3D modeling, or GPU compute should choose the RX 7600M. Users building or buying an ultra-low-power system where 25 W is the maximum allowable graphics power budget will find the Arc B370 is the only one of the two that fits that constraint. The choice is not about which is better in absolute terms; it is about which matches the system's power envelope and performance requirements.
