Analysis: AMD Radeon RX 7650 GRE vs Intel Arc A570M
Head-to-Head Benchmarks
The recorded data contains one direct comparison between the Intel Arc A570M and the AMD Radeon RX 7650 GRE: the Geekbench OpenCL compute test. In this workload, the AMD Radeon RX 7650 GRE scored 83109, while the Intel Arc A570M scored 58239. That translates to a 29.9% advantage for the AMD part, a substantial margin in raw compute throughput.
This single benchmark result is decisive in the head-to-head tally, with the AMD card claiming the only win. The Intel Arc A570M’s score of 58239 places it in the 88th percentile of all GPUs in the database, which is a strong showing for a mobile-oriented part. However, the RX 7650 GRE, despite sitting at the 83rd percentile, delivers a much higher absolute score. The percentile difference is notable: the Intel part ranks higher relative to the entire GPU population, yet the AMD part simply produces more raw OpenCL performance.
Looking at the nearest rivals for the Intel Arc A570M, its score of 58239 is nearly identical to that of the AMD Radeon RX 6950 XT, which averages 58392, a delta of only -0.3%. It also sits within 0.3% of the AMD Radeon RX 5600 OEM (58085) and trails the NVIDIA P102-100 by 0.5% (58528). The Intel part is essentially in a dead heat with these desktop-class GPUs, which underscores that its compute capability is competitive despite being a mobile chip.
For the AMD Radeon RX 7650 GRE, its average benchmark score of 42723 across all recorded tests places it near the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER (43223, a delta of -1.2%), the NVIDIA Quadro M6000 24 GB (43262, -1.2%), and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050 Mobile (43268, -1.3%). This indicates that the RX 7650 GRE, in aggregate, performs on par with those high-end parts, even though its Geekbench OpenCL score of 83109 is far above its own average. The Intel Arc A570M, by contrast, shows a single recorded benchmark with no averaging, so its 58239 score stands alone.
The data indicates that in the one test where both GPUs were measured under identical conditions, the AMD Radeon RX 7650 GRE is clearly faster. The 29.9% delta is not a marginal difference; it is a decisive gap that would be noticeable in any OpenCL compute workload. The Intel part's proximity to the RX 6950 XT and RX 5600 OEM suggests it punches well above its weight class, but the AMD part is in a different tier of raw performance.
The Verdict
Based strictly on the recorded measurements, the AMD Radeon RX 7650 GRE is the superior GPU for raw compute performance. Its Geekbench OpenCL score of 83109 is 29.9% higher than the Intel Arc A570M’s 58239. If the selection criterion is maximum OpenCL throughput, the AMD card wins outright. The data shows no scenario in the head-to-head where the Intel part takes the lead.
However, the Intel Arc A570M is not without merit. Its 88th percentile ranking among all GPUs is higher than the RX 7650 GRE’s 83rd percentile, meaning that relative to the entire database, the Intel part outperforms a larger fraction of competing GPUs. This is likely due to its mobile-oriented design and lower power envelope, which makes it an efficient choice for thin-and-light systems. The RX 7650 GRE, with a 170 W TDP and dual-slot design, is a desktop card that demands a 450 W power supply, whereas the Arc A570M is an integrated graphics processor (IGP) with a 75 W TDP.
For users prioritizing raw compute in a desktop context, the RX 7650 GRE is the clear pick. For those constrained by power or physical space, the Arc A570M offers competitive performance relative to its class, matching the RX 6950 XT within 0.3% in OpenCL. The verdict hinges on the use case: the AMD card dominates in absolute performance, while the Intel part offers a more power-efficient package that still lands near top-tier desktop GPUs in compute.
Architecture Differences
The two GPUs come from fundamentally different architectural generations. The Intel Arc A570M is built on the Xe-HPG architecture, codenamed Alchemist, and uses the DG2-256 chip. It is manufactured on a 6 nm process at TSMC, with 11,500 million transistors on a 269 mm² die, yielding a transistor density of 42.8 million per mm². The AMD Radeon RX 7650 GRE uses the RDNA 3.0 architecture, codenamed Hotpink Bonefish, with the Navi 33 chip. It is also built on a 6 nm process at TSMC, but packs 13,300 million transistors into a smaller 204 mm² die, achieving a higher density of 65.2 million per mm².
Clock speeds differ dramatically. The Intel part has a base clock of 900 MHz and a boost clock of 1300 MHz, with no game clock specified. The AMD part runs at a 1720 MHz base, a 2350 MHz game clock, and a 2695 MHz boost. This clock advantage is a primary driver of the AMD card’s higher performance, despite both having the same number of shading units (2048) and texture mapping units (128). Both GPUs have 64 ROPs, but the AMD card doubles the ray tracing cores: 32 versus 16 on the Intel part.
Memory configurations are similar in capacity and type: both use 8 GB of GDDR6 on a 128-bit bus. However, the AMD card runs its memory at 2250 MHz (18 Gbps effective), delivering 288.0 GB/s of bandwidth, while the Intel part operates at 1750 MHz (14 Gbps effective) for 224.0 GB/s. That is a 28.6% bandwidth advantage for the AMD card, which further widens the performance gap.
Compute throughput is where the differences become stark. The Intel Arc A570M delivers 5.325 TFLOPS of FP32 performance and 10.65 TFLOPS of FP16 (via a 2:1 ratio). The AMD Radeon RX 7650 GRE delivers 22.08 TFLOPS of FP32 and the same 22.08 TFLOPS of FP16 (at a 1:1 ratio). The AMD card is roughly 4.1 times faster in FP32 and more than 2 times faster in FP16. Pixel and texture rates follow suit: the AMD card achieves 172.5 GPixel/s and 345.0 GTexel/s, versus 83.20 GPixel/s and 166.4 GTexel/s for the Intel part.
Power and physical design also diverge. The Intel Arc A570M is an IGP with a 75 W TDP and no dedicated power connectors, while the AMD Radeon RX 7650 GRE is a dual-slot desktop card with a 170 W TDP, a single 8-pin power connector, and a suggested 450 W power supply. The AMD card measures 204 mm in length and 115 mm in height. Both support PCIe 4.0 x8, DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4. The AMD card offers 1x HDMI 2.1a and 3x DisplayPort 2.1 outputs, while the Intel part’s display outputs are portable device dependent. The AMD card’s predecessor is listed as Navi II, with successor Navi IV, whereas the Intel part has no listed predecessor or successor.

Where Each One Wins
The AMD Radeon RX 7650 GRE is the clear winner in raw compute performance, as evidenced by its 29.9% lead in Geekbench OpenCL. It also wins in every architectural metric: higher clocks (2695 MHz boost versus 1300 MHz), more ray tracing cores (32 versus 16), higher memory bandwidth (288.0 GB/s versus 224.0 GB/s), and substantially higher FP32 and FP16 throughput. For any workload that stresses compute, such as OpenCL-based rendering, physics simulation, or machine learning inference, the AMD card is the better choice. Its higher pixel rate (172.5 GPixel/s versus 83.20 GPixel/s) and texture rate (345.0 GTexel/s versus 166.4 GTexel/s) also make it more capable for traditional rasterization.
The Intel Arc A570M wins where efficiency and form factor matter. Its 75 W TDP is less than half of the AMD card’s 170 W, and it requires no external power connectors or dedicated power supply, making it suitable for compact or mobile systems. Its 88th percentile ranking versus the AMD card’s 83rd suggests that, relative to the entire GPU landscape, the Intel part outperforms a larger share of the competition. Its score of 58239 is nearly identical to the RX 6950 XT (within 0.3%), a desktop flagship, which indicates that the Intel part is exceptionally well-optimized for its power class. For users who need strong OpenCL compute in a portable device or a low-power build, the Arc A570M is the logical pick.
The benchmark data shows a clear split: the AMD Radeon RX 7650 GRE dominates in absolute performance, while the Intel Arc A570M offers a more power-efficient package with competitive relative performance. The choice depends on whether the priority is maximum throughput or minimal power draw.
