AMD Radeon RX 7700S vs Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The recorded data presents a unique comparison challenge: the AMD Radeon RX 7700S has three benchmark entries, while the Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual has no recorded benchmark scores. The head-to-head benchmark array is empty, and the wins counter shows zero for both parts. This means no direct same-test comparison exists in the database. However, the available measurements for the AMD side and the specifications for both cards allow for a meaningful examination of their relative positions.

The AMD Radeon RX 7700S scores 2,185 points in 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12, a test that stresses modern DirectX 12 workloads. Its Geekbench OpenCL score reaches 62,983, while its Geekbench Vulkan score sits at 36,380. These three results produce an average benchmark score of 33,849 for the RX 7700S, placing it in the 78th percentile among all GPUs in the database.

The nearest rivals for the RX 7700S provide context for its standing. The AMD Radeon HD 7950 averages 33,951, a delta of -0.3%, meaning the RX 7700S trails that older card by a negligible margin. The AMD Radeon RX 480 averages 33,997, a -0.4% delta. The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 5 GB averages 33,694, and the RX 7700S sits 0.5% ahead of it. The NVIDIA RTX A5000 averages 33,622, and the RX 7700S leads it by 0.7%. These deltas are all within a single percentage point, indicating that the RX 7700S occupies a tightly contested performance band where the differences between generations and brands are minimal.

The Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual has no benchmark scores recorded, an average benchmark score of zero, and no nearest rivals listed. Its percentile stands at 50, which is the median position, but this reflects the absence of data rather than a measured performance level. Without any recorded test results, the database cannot place the Arc Pro B60 Dual in direct numerical competition with the RX 7700S.

The absence of head-to-head benchmarks means the comparison rests on other recorded measurements. The RX 7700S shows clear strengths in its raw compute metrics. It delivers 20.48 TFLOPS of FP32 performance and 40.96 TFLOPS of FP16 performance (at a 2:1 ratio). The Arc Pro B60 Dual delivers 12.29 TFLOPS of FP32 and 24.58 TFLOPS of FP16 (also 2:1). These numbers indicate the AMD part holds a substantial lead in raw floating-point throughput, roughly 67% higher in FP32 terms.

Pixel and texture rates follow a similar pattern. The RX 7700S reaches 160.0 GPixel/s and 320.0 GTexel/s. The Arc Pro B60 Dual reaches 192.0 GPixel/s and 384.0 GTexel/s. Here the Intel part takes a clear lead, approximately 20% higher in both rates. This divergence suggests different design priorities: the AMD card emphasizes compute throughput, while the Intel card focuses on rasterization throughput.

Where Each One Wins

The AMD Radeon RX 7700S wins in compute-oriented workloads based on the recorded specifications. Its FP32 throughput of 20.48 TFLOPS exceeds the Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual's 12.29 TFLOPS by a wide margin. FP16 performance follows the same direction, with the RX 7700S at 40.96 TFLOPS versus 24.58 TFLOPS for the Arc Pro B60 Dual. Applications that scale with shader math, such as simulation, scientific computing, or general GPU compute, would favor the AMD part based on these figures.

The RX 7700S also carries more ray tracing cores: 32 versus 20 for the Arc Pro B60 Dual.

The Verdict

The data presents two very different products. The AMD Radeon RX 7700S is a low-power, integrated-part mobile GPU with 100 W TDP, no power connectors, and portable-device-dependent display outputs. Its benchmark results place it in the 78th percentile, with an average score of 33,849 and nearest rivals clustered within one percentage point. Its compute throughput of 20.48 TFLOPS FP32 and 32 ray tracing cores suggest a strong compute-focused design.

The Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual is a high-power, dual-slot desktop card with 400 W TDP, a 1x 16-pin power connector, an 800 W suggested PSU, and four mini-DisplayPort 2.1 outputs. It has no recorded benchmarks, so its real-world performance cannot be verified from the database. Its percentile of 50 reflects missing data, not measured performance.

For workloads requiring raw compute and ray tracing capability, the RX 7700S has the numerical advantage based on its FP32 and FP16 throughput and higher ray tracing core count. Its benchmark scores, while modest in absolute terms, are validated by three recorded tests.

For workloads requiring large memory capacity, high bandwidth, and rasterization throughput, the Arc Pro B60 Dual has the specification advantage. Its 24 GB memory pool and 456.0 GB/s bandwidth, combined with 192.0 GPixel/s pixel rate and 384.0 GTexel/s texture rate, position it for data-heavy or fill-rate-intensive tasks.

The choice between them depends on the workload. The RX 7700S suits compute-oriented mobile systems where power draw is constrained. The Arc Pro B60 Dual suits desktop configurations where memory size and rasterization throughput take priority, and where the 400 W TDP and 800 W PSU requirement can be accommodated. Without benchmark data for the Intel card, its performance claims remain unverified. The RX 7700S at least has recorded measurements to support its standing.
