AMD Radeon RX 7900M vs Intel Arc Pro B370 Comparison

Where Each One Wins

The AMD Radeon RX 7900M and Intel Arc Pro B370 occupy completely different positions in the database. The RX 7900M is a high-end mobile discrete GPU with a 94th percentile ranking across all GPUs, while the Arc Pro B370 sits at the 50th percentile with no recorded benchmark scores yet. The recorded data shows the RX 7900M delivers substantial performance advantages across every measurable test, while the Arc Pro B370's strengths lie entirely in efficiency and integration rather than raw throughput.

The RX 7900M wins decisively in every benchmark category available in the database. Its 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 4201 points demonstrates strong modern gaming capability. The Geekbench OpenCL score of 129499 and Vulkan score of 158760 both place it firmly in the upper tier of mobile graphics solutions. The Arc Pro B370 has no benchmark entries, so the database shows zero wins for it in any test.

The Arc Pro B370's advantages are architectural rather than performance-based. It uses a 3 nm process node from Intel, compared to the 5 nm TSMC node of the RX 7900M. Its 25 W TDP represents a fraction of the power envelope of the AMD part. The Intel solution integrates the GPU directly into the Panther Lake chip, sharing system memory rather than using dedicated VRAM. This makes it suitable for thin-and-light systems where power efficiency and space take priority over raw graphics performance.

The performance gap between these two parts is enormous. The RX 7900M delivers 38.52 TFLOPS of FP32 compute, while the Arc Pro B370 offers 6.144 TFLOPS. That is a 6.3x difference in raw compute throughput. The pixel rate difference is even larger: 401.3 GPixel/s versus 48.00 GPixel/s, an 8.4x gap. Texture rate shows 601.9 GTexel/s against 96.00 GTexel/s, a 6.3x margin. These numbers confirm that the two products target entirely different segments of the mobile market.

Architecture Differences

The RX 7900M uses the Navi 31 chip with RDNA 3.0 architecture, codenamed Plum Bonito. It belongs to the Navi Mobile generation within the RX 7000M series. The chip contains 57,700 million transistors on a 529 mm² die, fabricated on a 5 nm process at TSMC. The transistor density works out to 109.1 million per square millimeter. This is a large, complex die designed for maximum performance in premium gaming laptops.

The Arc Pro B370 uses the Panther Lake chip with Xe3-LPG architecture. It belongs to the Arc Graphics-WM generation. The process node is 3 nm, built by Intel's own foundry. The transistor count and die size are listed as unknown in the database, indicating Intel has not disclosed these details. The integration is notably different: the bus interface is IGP, meaning the GPU is integrated into the same package as the CPU rather than connected via PCIe.

The memory architecture differs fundamentally. The RX 7900M has 16 GB of dedicated GDDR6 memory on a 256-bit bus, delivering 576.0 GB/s of bandwidth. The memory clock runs at 2250 MHz with 18 Gbps effective data rate. The Arc Pro B370 uses System Shared memory, meaning it borrows from the host system's RAM. Its bus width, memory type, and bandwidth are all listed as System Dependent, which means performance varies based on the laptop's memory configuration.

The compute resource counts show a massive disparity. The RX 7900M carries 4608 shading units, 288 texture mapping units, 192 raster output units, and 72 ray tracing cores. The Arc Pro B370 has 1280 shading units, 40 TMUs, 20 ROPs, and 10 RT cores. Each of these figures represents a different scale of hardware commitment. The AMD part has 3.6x more shading units, 7.2x more TMUs, 9.6x more ROPs, and 7.2x more RT cores.

Clock behavior also differs. The RX 7900M runs at a base clock of 1825 MHz with a boost of 2090 MHz. The Arc Pro B370 has a much lower base clock of 300 MHz but boosts to 2400 MHz. The low base clock suggests aggressive power management on the Intel part, ramping up only when needed. The AMD part maintains higher sustained clocks across a 180 W power envelope.

Power delivery and physical configuration show the integration differences. The RX 7900M has a 180 W TDP, while the Arc Pro B370 draws only 25 W. Both are listed as IGP slot width with no power connectors, but the RX 7900M is a discrete GPU that draws power through the motherboard or proprietary connectors. The Arc Pro B370 is fully integrated into the processor package. Both support PCIe 4.0, though the Arc Pro B370 uses the IGP bus interface rather than a x16 slot.

API support is identical: both offer DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4. This means software compatibility is not a differentiator. The display outputs are listed as Portable Device Dependent for both, reflecting that mobile implementations vary by laptop manufacturer.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The head-to-head benchmark table in the database is empty, meaning no direct comparison tests have been recorded between these two specific products. However, the individual benchmark scores provide clear evidence of performance relationships.

In 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12, the RX 7900M scores 4201 points. This test measures modern DirectX 12 rendering performance including ray tracing workloads. The Arc Pro B370 has no recorded score in this test, but its hardware specifications suggest it would trail substantially. The RX 7900M's 72 RT cores versus the Arc Pro B370's 10 RT cores indicate a 7.2x advantage in ray tracing hardware.

Geekbench OpenCL shows the RX 7900M at 129499 points. OpenCL is a general-purpose compute benchmark that exercises the GPU's raw throughput. The Arc Pro B370 has no recorded OpenCL score. The FP32 compute difference of 38.52 TFLOPS versus 6.144 TFLOPS gives the RX 7900M a 6.3x theoretical advantage, which would translate directly to OpenCL performance.

Geekbench Vulkan shows the RX 7900M at 158760 points. Vulkan is a low-level graphics API that can extract close-to-theoretical performance from capable hardware. The RX 7900M's higher pixel rate and texture rate would directly benefit Vulkan workloads. Again, no comparative score exists for the Arc Pro B370 in the database.

The nearest rivals for the RX 7900M provide context for its performance tier. The AMD Radeon Pro VII scores 97131 on average, which is 0.4% lower than the RX 7900M's average benchmark score of 97487. The NVIDIA Quadro RTX 6000 scores 101872, putting it 4.3% ahead. The AMD Radeon Instinct MI60 scores 92466, which is 5.4% behind. The NVIDIA RTX A4500 scores 91671, 6.3% behind. These comparisons show the RX 7900M performing in the same league as professional workstation and compute GPUs, despite being a mobile part.

The Arc Pro B370 has no nearest rivals listed and an average benchmark score of zero, confirming that the database has not yet accumulated enough data to place it in a performance hierarchy. Its 50th percentile ranking is a default position rather than a measured result.
