AMD Steam Deck OLED GPU vs Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The recorded database contains no head-to-head benchmark entries for this pairing. The AMD Steam Deck OLED GPU and the Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual have never been measured against each other in the same test session, so there are no direct performance scores, win counts, or percentage deltas to compare. The AMD side shows zero wins, and the Intel side shows zero wins, which simply reflects the absence of matched testing rather than any outcome on the bench.

What the database does provide is a full set of theoretical and architectural metrics for each part. These numbers allow a projection of how the two would likely interact, even though no direct scores exist. The Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual carries a significantly larger compute configuration. Its FP32 throughput is listed at 12.29 TFLOPS, while the AMD Steam Deck OLED GPU is recorded at 1.638 TFLOPS. That is a ratio of roughly 7.5 times in raw shader output. Texture rate shows a similar gap: 384.0 GTexel/s for Intel versus 51.20 GTexel/s for AMD, a 7.5 times difference. Pixel rate tells the same story, with Intel at 192.0 GPixel/s and AMD at 25.60 GPixel/s, again a 7.5 times gap.

Memory bandwidth follows the same pattern. The Intel part uses a 192 bit bus with GDDR6 running at 2375 MHz, producing 456.0 GB/s. The AMD part uses a 128 bit bus with LPDDR5 at 1375 MHz, producing 176.0 GB/s. The Intel card offers 2.6 times the bandwidth. Capacity also differs: 24 GB on Intel versus 16 GB on AMD. Clock speeds are not close either. Intel lists a base of 2000 MHz and a boost of 2400 MHz, while AMD lists a base of 1000 MHz and a boost of 1600 MHz. The Intel boost clock is 50% higher than the AMD boost clock.

The AMD GPU does hold advantages in other areas. Its total board power is recorded at 15 W, while the Intel card is listed at 400 W. That is a 26.7 times difference in power draw. The AMD part is also physically smaller in width: 49 mm versus 40 mm for Intel, though the Intel card is shorter in length at 300 mm versus 298 mm for AMD, and lower in height at 110 mm versus 117 mm. Those dimensional differences are minor. The AMD GPU requires no external power connector, while the Intel card uses a single 16 pin connector and a suggested 800 W power supply.

The percentile rankings in the database place both parts at 50 on the percentileVsAllGpus scale. That means neither sits clearly above the other in the overall distribution of all recorded GPUs. The average benchmark score for both is zero, which again reflects the lack of recorded benchmark data rather than actual performance parity.

The Verdict

Based strictly on the recorded data, the Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual is the stronger compute device across every raw performance metric the database tracks. Its FP32 output, texture rate, pixel rate, memory bandwidth, and memory capacity all exceed the AMD Steam Deck OLED GPU by substantial margins. The 400 W power envelope and the 1,199 USD launch MSRP indicate a professional workstation class product, while the 15 W power draw and the absence of a launch MSRP place the AMD part in a low power embedded or handheld class.

The AMD Steam Deck OLED GPU is the appropriate choice for systems where power consumption is the dominant constraint. The 15 W figure is the lowest recorded in this comparison, and the lack of a power connector means installation requires no additional cabling. The Intel card demands a 400 W supply allocation, a 16 pin connector, and an 800 W suggested power supply, which places it in a completely different deployment category.

The data also shows a generational and architectural split. The AMD part uses RDNA 2.0 on a 6 nm process, while the Intel part uses Xe2-HPG on a 5 nm process. Both are fabricated by TSMC, but the Intel process node is smaller. The Intel chip packs 19,600 million transistors on a 272 mm² die, while the AMD chip packs 2,400 million on a 131 mm² die. Transistor density reflects this: 72.1M per mm² for Intel versus 18.3M per mm² for AMD. The Intel die is roughly twice the area but holds over eight times the transistors.

There is no benchmark data to confirm how these theoretical advantages translate into real applications. The database shows no tests, no scores, and no rival comparisons for either product. The verdict must therefore rely on the specification sheet alone. For raw performance, the Intel card is the clear pick. For minimal power draw and simple integration, the AMD part is the clear pick. Neither product appears to have been measured against the other, so any claim of a definitive performance winner beyond the specification gap would go beyond the recorded facts.

Architecture Differences

The two GPUs come from completely different architectural lineages. The AMD Steam Deck OLED GPU uses RDNA 2.0, a graphics architecture that dates to before the current RDNA 3 designs. The Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual uses Xe2-HPG, the second generation of Intel's high performance graphics architecture. Both support DirectX 12 Ultimate at the 12_2 feature level, so the feature set for modern game APIs is nominally equal. OpenGL 4.6 is also common to both.

The AMD chip, named Sephiroth, is built on a 6 nm TSMC process and integrates 2,400 million transistors into a 131 mm² die. The Intel chip, named BMG-G21, uses a 5 nm TSMC process and integrates 19,600 million transistors into a 272 mm² die. The Intel die is 2.1 times larger in area but holds 8.2 times the transistors, which explains the much higher transistor density of 72.1M per mm² versus 18.3M per mm².

The compute layout differs in scale. The AMD GPU has 512 shading units arranged with 32 texture mapping units and 16 render output units. The Intel GPU has 2560 shading units, 160 TMUs, and 80 ROPs. Ray tracing hardware also differs: AMD has 8 RT cores, Intel has 20 RT cores. Neither product lists tensor or AI accelerator cores in the database, so any machine learning capabilities beyond the base shader array are not recorded.

Memory architecture is a major split. AMD uses 16 GB of LPDDR5 on a 128 bit interface, which is typical for a low power integrated or semi-custom part. Intel uses 24 GB of GDDR6 on a 192 bit interface, which is typical for a discrete workstation card. The effective memory speeds also differ: 11 Gbps for AMD versus 19 Gbps for Intel. The resulting bandwidth gap, 176.0 GB/s versus 456.0 GB/s, is consistent with the bus width and memory type differences.

Power delivery separates the two designs at a fundamental level. The AMD GPU operates at 15 W and requires no external power connector, which implies a passively cooled or lightly cooled embedded design. The Intel GPU operates at 400 W, requires a 16 pin power connector, and lists a suggested 800 W power supply. That power draw is typical of a high end discrete GPU with active cooling. The slot width for Intel is dual-slot, while AMD has no slot width recorded.

The display output philosophy also differs. The AMD part offers a single USB Type-C output, which matches a handheld console form factor. The Intel part offers four mini-DisplayPort 2.1 outputs, which matches a professional workstation card driving multiple monitors. The bus interface for Intel is PCIe 5.0 x8, while AMD has no bus interface recorded, again consistent with an embedded or soldered part rather than a discrete card.

Where Each One Wins

The Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual wins in every raw performance category recorded in the database. Its FP32 throughput of 12.29 TFLOPS is roughly 7.5 times the AMD figure. Its texture rate of 384.0 GTexel/s is 7.5 times higher. Its pixel rate of 192.0 GPixel/s is 7.5 times higher. Its memory bandwidth of 456.0 GB/s is 2.6 times higher. Its memory capacity of 24 GB is 1.5 times higher. Its ray tracing core count of 20 is 2.5 times the AMD count of 8. Its boost clock of 2400 MHz is 50% higher than the AMD boost clock of 1600 MHz. The Intel card also supports Vulkan 1.4, while AMD is limited to Vulkan 1.3.

The AMD Steam Deck OLED GPU wins in power efficiency and integration simplicity. Its 15 W total board power is the lowest recorded figure, and it requires no external power connector. The Intel card needs a 16 pin connector and an 800 W suggested power supply. The AMD part is also narrower at 49 mm width versus 40 mm for Intel, though the length and height differences are small. The AMD part is from the Console GPU (Valve) generation, which indicates a fixed function device with a single USB Type-C display output, suitable for a handheld or embedded system. The Intel card, with four mini-DisplayPort 2.1 outputs and a PCIe 5.0 x8 interface, is built for a desktop workstation environment.

The release dates place the AMD part at 2023-11-08 and the Intel part at 2025-09-04, so the Intel card is a later product by nearly two years. The Intel launch MSRP of 1,199 USD places it in the high end professional segment. The AMD part has no recorded launch MSRP, which is consistent with a GPU that ships inside a complete device rather than as a standalone retail product.

Neither GPU has any recorded benchmark scores, rival comparisons, or head-to-head results. The percentileVsAllGpus ranking of 50 for both parts suggests that the database treats them as median performers among all GPUs, but that ranking is based on the absence of measured data rather than any tested equivalence. The wins in each category come entirely from the specification sheet.

For applications that need maximum compute throughput, high memory bandwidth, large memory capacity, and multiple display outputs, the Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual is the only option between the two. For applications that need minimal power draw, no external power cabling, and a compact low profile device, the AMD Steam Deck OLED GPU is the only option. The two products target different physical environments, and the recorded data does not support any claim that they compete directly in the same use case.
