The Verdict

The data shows two GPUs aimed at entirely different segments. The AMD Radeon RX 7650 GRE is the clear performance leader in aggregate. Its average benchmark score of 42723 dwarfs the Intel Arc Pro B60's 3182, and its 83rd percentile ranking versus the B60's 20th percentile confirms a massive gap in overall capability. For any general-purpose 3D rendering or gaming workload, the RX 7650 GRE is the definitive choice based on recorded measurements.

The Intel Arc Pro B60, however, wins the single head-to-head 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 test with 2646 versus 2336, an 11.7 percent margin. This result, combined with its 24 GB GDDR6 memory and 456.0 GB/s bandwidth, indicates that the B60 is designed for professional compute and large-data tasks rather than raw rasterization. The 24 GB frame buffer is over three times larger than the RX 7650 GRE's 8 GB, making the B60 the appropriate pick for workloads that require massive memory capacity, such as AI inference, large scene rendering, or data-parallel compute.

The RX 7650 GRE delivers 22.08 TFLOPS of FP32 performance versus 12.29 TFLOPS for the B60, and it also leads in texture rate (345.0 GTexel/s vs 384.0 GTexel/s is actually in Intel's favor, but the RX has higher FP32). The verdict is straightforward: the AMD card for gaming and general 3D, the Intel card for memory-bound professional tasks where the 24 GB buffer and PCIe 5.0 x8 interface matter more than raw shader throughput.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The only direct head-to-head benchmark in the database is 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12. Here, the Intel Arc Pro B60 scores 2646 against the AMD Radeon RX 7650 GRE's 2336, a delta of 11.7 percent in Intel's favor. This is a significant single-test win and indicates that in this specific DX12 workload, the B60's architecture executes more efficiently.

Beyond this single test, the broader benchmark suites tell a different story. The RX 7650 GRE records 83109 in Geekbench OpenCL, while the B60's Passmark GPU Compute score is 7029. The RX 7650 GRE also posts a 3DMark Steel Nomad score that is lower than the B60, but its overall average of 42723 versus 3182 shows that the AMD card wins the vast majority of workloads. The B60's Passmark DirectX scores (61 for DX10, 122 for DX11, 76 for DX12, 179 for DX9) are all low relative to its 3DMark result, suggesting that its strength is concentrated in specific modern API workloads rather than legacy or varied DirectX tests.

The RX 7650 GRE's nearest rivals include the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER at 43223 (1.2 percent ahead), the NVIDIA Quadro M6000 24 GB at 43262 (1.2 percent ahead), and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050 Mobile at 43268 (1.3 percent ahead). The B60's rivals are far lower in performance: the NVIDIA Quadro P1000 at 3163 (0.6 percent behind), the NVIDIA GeForce GT 640 at 3210 (0.9 percent ahead), and the NVIDIA GeForce 920M at 3287 (3.2 percent ahead). This comparison confirms that the AMD card competes at a high-performance tier, while the Intel card sits near entry-level desktop and mobile graphics in aggregate scoring.

Architecture Differences

The AMD Radeon RX 7650 GRE is built on the RDNA 3.0 architecture, using the Navi 33 chip with the codename Hotpink Bonefish. It is part of the Navi III (RX 7000) generation and the Radeon RX 7000 series. The process node is 6 nm at TSMC, with 13,300 million transistors on a 204 mm² die, giving a transistor density of 65.2M per mm².

The Intel Arc Pro B60 uses the Xe2-HPG architecture, based on the BMG-G21 chip. It belongs to the Battlemage (Pro Series) generation. The process node is 5 nm at TSMC, with 19,600 million transistors on a 272 mm² die, giving a transistor density of 72.1M per mm².

The B60 uses a smaller process node and packs significantly more transistors into a larger die. Its FP16 performance is 24.58 TFLOPS with a 2:1 ratio, while the RX 7650 GRE delivers 22.08 TFLOPS of FP16 with a 1:1 ratio. This means the Intel card has dedicated FP16 throughput that is higher than its FP32, while the AMD card has equal FP16 and FP32 rates.

Both cards support DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4. The RX 7650 GRE has a predecessor listed as Navi II and a successor as Navi IV, while the B60 has no predecessor or successor listed.

The RX 7650 GRE's transistor density is 65.2M per mm², while the B60's is 72.1M per mm², reflecting the Intel card's more advanced 5 nm process. The B60 also has a higher base clock at 2000 MHz versus 1720 MHz for the AMD card, though the AMD card's boost clock of 2695 MHz exceeds the B60's 2400 MHz.

Where Each One Wins

The AMD Radeon RX 7650 GRE wins in aggregate performance. Its average benchmark score of 42723 is more than 13 times higher than the B60's 3182. It delivers 22.08 TFLOPS of FP32, which is nearly double the B60's 12.29 TFLOPS. The RX 7650 GRE also has a higher boost clock (2695 MHz vs 2400 MHz) and a larger number of ray tracing cores (32 vs 20). For gaming, general 3D rendering, and any workload that relies on raw shader throughput, the RX 7650 GRE is the superior card based on the recorded data.

The Intel Arc Pro B60 wins in the 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 test with 2646 versus 2336, an 11.7 percent advantage. It also has 24 GB of memory versus 8 GB, and 456.0 GB/s of bandwidth versus 288.0 GB/s. The B60 uses a PCIe 5.0 x8 interface, which offers twice the bandwidth of the RX 7650 GRE's PCIe 4.0 x8. For workloads that are memory-bound, require large datasets to fit in VRAM, or benefit from modern API features in specific DX12 scenarios, the B60 has a clear edge.

The B60's FP16 performance of 24.58 TFLOPS exceeds the RX 7650 GRE's 22.08 TFLOPS, making it more capable for compute tasks that use half-precision arithmetic. Its higher base clock of 2000 MHz also gives it an advantage in sustained workloads that do not boost.

The RX 7650 GRE's 83rd percentile ranking versus the B60's 20th percentile confirms that the AMD card is a high-performance part by global standards, while the B60 is an entry-level performer in aggregate. However, the B60's 24 GB memory capacity is a unique asset at its performance tier, making it the only card in the database with that combination of memory size and modern architecture.

For users prioritizing overall speed and gaming, the RX 7650 GRE is the clear winner. For users prioritizing memory capacity, half-precision compute, and specific DX12 workloads, the B60 offers capabilities that the RX 7650 GRE cannot match.
