AMD Radeon RX 7900M vs Intel Graphics 24EU Mobile Comparison

The AMD Radeon RX 7900M and the Intel Graphics 24EU Mobile occupy opposite ends of the mobile graphics spectrum. The RX 7900M is a high-end discrete GPU built for demanding workloads, while the Intel part is a low-power integrated solution for basic computing. The benchmark database shows a decisive performance gap, with the RX 7900M achieving an average benchmark score of 97,487 and ranking in the 94th percentile of all GPUs, while the Intel Graphics 24EU Mobile has no recorded benchmark scores and sits at the 50th percentile.

Where Each One Wins

The RX 7900M wins in every measurable category where data exists. Its recorded benchmarks include a 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 4,201, a Geekbench OpenCL score of 129,499, and a Geekbench Vulkan score of 158,760. These results place it far above typical integrated graphics. The Intel Graphics 24EU Mobile has no benchmark entries in the database, meaning no direct comparison data exists for it in any test. The RX 7900M also holds wins in raw throughput metrics: it delivers 38.52 TFLOPS of FP32 compute versus 384.0 GFLOPS for the Intel part, a 100x difference in theoretical floating-point performance.

The RX 7900M is the clear choice for any application that stresses the GPU, such as 3D rendering, video encoding, or compute workloads. Its high pixel rate of 401.3 GPixel/s and texture rate of 601.9 GTexel/s indicate substantial fill-rate headroom. The Intel Graphics 24EU Mobile, with a 4.000 GPixel/s pixel rate and 12.00 GTexel/s texture rate, is suited only for basic display output and lightweight 2D tasks. The data shows that the RX 7900M wins on every performance axis, while the Intel part has no recorded wins because it has no recorded scores.

Architecture Differences

The two GPUs come from different design philosophies. The AMD Radeon RX 7900M uses the RDNA 3.0 architecture, built on a 5 nm TSMC process. It is part of the Radeon RX 7000 series and carries the Navi 31 chip, with the codename Plum Bonito. The RX 7900M integrates 57,700 million transistors on a 529 mm² die, resulting in a transistor density of 109.1M per mm². Its generation is listed as Navi Mobile (RX 7000M).

The Intel Graphics 24EU Mobile uses the Xe-LP architecture, built on a 10 nm Intel process. It is based on the Twin Lake chip and belongs to the HD Graphics-T (Twin Lake) generation. Intel lists its transistor count and die size as unknown, and no transistor density figure is recorded. The RX 7900M features 72 ray tracing cores, while the Intel part has no ray tracing cores listed. Both support DirectX 12, but the AMD GPU supports 12 Ultimate (12_2) while the Intel GPU supports 12 (12_1).

Feature support also differs. The RX 7900M supports Vulkan 1.4 and OpenGL 4.6, and the Intel part also supports Vulkan 1.4 and OpenGL 4.6. The RX 7900M uses a PCIe 4.0 x16 bus interface, while the Intel Graphics 24EU Mobile uses a Ring Bus interface. Both are listed as IGP slot width, and both have display outputs that are portable device dependent. The RX 7900M uses 180 W of power, while the Intel part uses 6 W.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The database contains no head-to-head benchmark entries between the RX 7900M and the Intel Graphics 24EU Mobile. However, the RX 7900M has independent benchmark scores that can be compared qualitatively to the Intel part's absence of scores. The RX 7900M scores 4,201 in 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12, 129,499 in Geekbench OpenCL, and 158,760 in Geekbench Vulkan. The Intel Graphics 24EU Mobile has an empty benchmarks array, so no scores exist to compare.

The RX 7900M's average benchmark score of 97,487 places it near several discrete workstation GPUs. The nearest rival is the AMD Radeon Pro VII, which has an average score of 97,131, a delta of 0.4%. The NVIDIA Quadro RTX 6000 scores 101,872, which is 4.3% higher than the RX 7900M. The AMD Radeon Instinct MI60 scores 92,466, which is 5.4% lower. The NVIDIA RTX A4500 scores 91,671, which is 6.3% lower. These comparisons show that the RX 7900M sits in a competitive position relative to professional workstation GPUs, slightly behind the Quadro RTX 6000 and ahead of the Instinct MI60 and RTX A4500.

The Intel Graphics 24EU Mobile has no nearest rivals listed and an average benchmark score of 0. This means it cannot be positioned against any comparable GPU in the database. The performance gap between the two parts is not just large; it is effectively unmeasurable because the Intel part has no data.

For any workload that requires graphics acceleration, the RX 7900M is the only viable choice between these two. The Intel part cannot compete on any recorded metric, and its absence of benchmark data means there is no evidence of competitive performance. The RX 7900M also offers 16 GB of dedicated GDDR6 memory, while the Intel part relies on system shared memory with system dependent bandwidth. The RX 7900M uses 180 W of power, a figure that reflects its high-end positioning, while the Intel part uses 6 W, which suits power-constrained designs. The release dates differ by over a year, with the RX 7900M launching on 2023-10-18 and the Intel Graphics 24EU Mobile on 2024-12-31. The RX 7900M's predecessor is Polaris Mobile, while the Intel part has no predecessor listed. The verdict is straightforward: the RX 7900M is a high-performance GPU with a clear data record, and the Intel Graphics 24EU Mobile is a low-power integrated part with no recorded performance data. Any system builder or analyst looking for GPU performance should select the RX 7900M based on the available evidence.
