AMD Radeon RX 9070 GRE vs Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The database records no direct head-to-head benchmark results between the AMD Radeon RX 9070 GRE and the Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual. This absence of overlapping test data means comparisons must rely on the available aggregate measurements and architectural specifications. The AMD card has two recorded benchmark scores: 5,424 in 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 and 109,309 in Geekbench OpenCL. The Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual has no benchmark entries in the database, with an average score of zero and no nearest rivals listed.

The AMD Radeon RX 9070 GRE holds an average benchmark score of 57,367, placing it in the 87th percentile among all GPUs tracked. Its nearest recorded rivals include the Intel Arc A580 at 57,756 (0.7% higher), the AMD Radeon RX 5600 OEM at 58,085 (1.2% higher), the Intel Arc A570M at 58,239 (1.5% higher), and the AMD Radeon RX 6950 XT at 58,392 (1.8% higher). These margins are narrow, indicating that the RX 9070 GRE sits in a tightly contested performance band. The Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual, by contrast, records a 50th percentile standing with no comparable scores, so its position relative to the AMD card cannot be quantified from direct measurements.

Given the absence of paired test runs, the FP32 throughput figures provide the clearest computational comparison. The RX 9070 GRE delivers 34.28 TFLOPS of FP32 compute, while the Arc Pro B60 Dual delivers 12.29 TFLOPS. The AMD card offers roughly 2.8 times the single-precision compute throughput. For FP16 workloads, the AMD card sustains 34.28 TFLOPS at a 1:1 ratio, whereas the Intel card reaches 24.58 TFLOPS through a 2:1 rate. This means the AMD card remains ahead in FP16 as well, though by a smaller margin of about 1.4 times.

Texture and pixel fill rates follow the same direction. The RX 9070 GRE achieves a texture rate of 535.7 GTexel/s and a pixel rate of 267.8 GPixel/s. The Arc Pro B60 Dual records 384.0 GTexel/s and 192.0 GPixel/s. The AMD part leads by 39.5% in texturing and 39.5% in pixel throughput. These rates are consistent with the larger shading unit count of 3,072 versus 2,560, as well as the higher boost clock of 2,790 MHz versus 2,400 MHz.

Memory bandwidth is close between the two. The AMD card uses 12 GB of GDDR6 across a 192-bit bus, delivering 432.0 GB/s. The Intel card uses 24 GB of GDDR6 across the same 192-bit bus width, delivering 456.0 GB/s. The Intel part holds a 5.6% bandwidth advantage, which is modest but relevant for capacity-heavy workloads. The AMD card's 18 Gbps effective memory speed is slower than the Intel card's 19 Gbps effective speed, yet the AMD card shifts fewer bytes per second due to identical bus width and lower memory clock.

Architecture Differences

The two cards come from different architectural families. AMD's Radeon RX 9070 GRE uses the Navi 48 chip built on RDNA 4.0 architecture, part of the Navi IV generation within the Radeon RX 9000 series. Intel's Arc Pro B60 Dual uses the BMG-G21 chip built on Xe2-HPG architecture, part of the Battlemage Pro Series. Both chips are fabricated by TSMC, but at different process nodes: the AMD chip uses 4 nm, while the Intel chip uses 5 nm.

Transistor counts differ substantially. The AMD Navi 48 packs 53,900 million transistors on a 357 mm² die, yielding a transistor density of 151.0 million per mm². The Intel BMG-G21 contains 19,600 million transistors on a 272 mm² die, for a density of 72.1 million per mm². The AMD chip has 2.75 times the transistor count and 1.31 times the die area, resulting in more than double the transistor density. This reflects the tighter 4 nm process and the larger compute configuration.

Core counts also diverge. The RX 9070 GRE includes 3,072 shading units, 192 texture mapping units, 96 render output units, and 48 ray tracing cores. The Arc Pro B60 Dual includes 2,560 shading units, 160 TMUs, 80 ROPs, and 20 ray tracing cores. The AMD card leads by 20% in shading units, 20% in TMUs, 20% in ROPs, and 140% in ray tracing cores. The ray tracing core disparity is particularly pronounced, suggesting a large difference in hardware reserved for RT workloads.

Clock behavior differs in structure. The AMD card lists a base clock of 1,420 MHz, a boost clock of 2,790 MHz, and a separate game clock of 2,220 MHz. The Intel card has a base clock of 2,000 MHz and a boost clock of 2,400 MHz, with no game clock specified. The AMD boost clock is 16.25% higher than the Intel boost clock, while the Intel base clock is 40.8% higher than the AMD base clock. The AMD part relies on a wider clock range to reach higher peak performance.

Memory architecture shows both similarity and difference. Both cards use GDDR6 memory on a 192-bit bus. The AMD card has 12 GB, while the Intel card has 24 GB, exactly double the capacity. Effective memory speed is 18 Gbps on AMD and 19 Gbps on Intel, giving the Intel card 456.0 GB/s versus 432.0 GB/s. Power delivery differs as well: the RX 9070 GRE has a 220 W TDP with two 8-pin connectors and a recommended 550 W power supply, while the Arc Pro B60 Dual has a 400 W TDP with one 16-pin connector and a recommended 800 W power supply. The Intel card draws 180 W more under the rated TDP.

The PCIe interface also separates the two. The AMD card uses PCIe 5.0 x16, while the Intel card uses PCIe 5.0 x8. For display output, the AMD card provides one HDMI 2.1b port and three DisplayPort 2.1a ports, while the Intel card provides four mini-DisplayPort 2.1 ports. Both support DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4.

The Verdict

The recorded data supports a clear split by workload profile. The AMD Radeon RX 9070 GRE is the stronger compute performer in nearly every measured metric. Its FP32 throughput of 34.28 TFLOPS dwarfs the Intel card's 12.29 TFLOPS, and its texture rate of 535.7 GTexel/s and pixel rate of 267.8 GPixel/s both exceed the Intel card's 384.0 GTexel/s and 192.0 GPixel/s. The AMD card also holds a 2.75 times transistor count advantage and a substantially higher ray tracing core count of 48 versus 20. For rasterization-heavy or general compute tasks, the data points firmly toward the RX 9070 GRE.

The Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual counters with 24 GB of memory, double the AMD card's 12 GB, and a slightly higher memory bandwidth of 456.0 GB/s versus 432.0 GB/s. It also carries a higher base clock of 2,000 MHz versus 1,420 MHz, though its boost clock of 2,400 MHz trails the AMD card's 2,790 MHz. The Intel card's power envelope is significantly larger at 400 W versus 220 W, and its recommended power supply jumps to 800 W from 550 W. The absence of benchmark scores for the Intel card in the database means its practical performance cannot be verified, while the AMD card has measurable scores in both 3DMark Steel Nomad and Geekbench OpenCL.

The launch MSRP for the AMD Radeon RX 9070 GRE is 549 USD. The launch MSRP for the Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual is 1,199 USD.

Where Each One Wins

The AMD Radeon RX 9070 GRE wins on raw compute density and throughput. Its FP32 figure of 34.28 TFLOPS is 2.8 times the Intel card's 12.29 TFLOPS, and its FP16 figure of 34.28 TFLOPS exceeds the Intel card's 24.58 TFLOPS. The 48 ray tracing cores versus 20, the 3,072 shading units versus 2,560, and the higher boost clock of 2,790 MHz versus 2,400 MHz all reinforce this lead. The AMD card also requires less power at 220 W versus 400 W, making it the more efficient choice on paper. Its 87th percentile ranking and recorded benchmark scores, including 5,424 in 3DMark Steel Nomad and 109,309 in Geekbench OpenCL, give it a verified performance footprint.

The Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual wins on memory capacity and bandwidth. Its 24 GB frame buffer is double the AMD card's 12 GB, which matters for datasets or rendering workloads that exceed the smaller buffer. Its 456.0 GB/s bandwidth surpasses the AMD card's 432.0 GB/s, and its 19 Gbps effective memory speed is higher than 18 Gbps. The Intel card also has a higher base clock of 2,000 MHz, which could support steadier sustained operation at lower clocks. The four mini-DisplayPort 2.1 outputs exceed the AMD card's three DisplayPort 2.1a ports, offering more display connectivity options. The Intel card's 50th percentile ranking with no recorded benchmarks leaves its real-world performance unverified, but its capacity and bandwidth profile suit memory-bound professional tasks.
