Analysis: Intel Arc A380E vs NVIDIA RTX PRO 5000 72 GB Blackwell
Head-to-Head Benchmarks
The recorded data shows no direct head-to-head benchmark comparisons between the Intel Arc A380E and the NVIDIA RTX PRO 5000 72 GB Blackwell. The database contains no shared test results, so a side-by-side score comparison is not possible. However, the RTX PRO 5000 has a full set of benchmark scores, while the Arc A380E has none recorded. The RTX PRO 5000's average benchmark score of 6407 places it at the 37th percentile among all GPUs in the database. Its nearest rivals are the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460 SE and the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 580M, both with an average score of 6389, a delta of 0.3%. The AMD Radeon Vega 10 Mobile and the NVIDIA Quadro M5000M each score 6476 and 6481 respectively, putting the RTX PRO 5000 behind them by 1.1%. The Arc A380E, by contrast, has no benchmark entries, an average score of 0, and a 50th percentile ranking due to its unmeasured status.
The RTX PRO 5000's strongest recorded result is in Passmark G3D, where it scores 24310. Its Passmark GPU Compute score is 15667, indicating strong compute throughput. In 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12, it scores 9579.5. The older DirectX tests show lower numbers: Passmark DX11 scores 219, DX10 scores 175, and DX9 scores 311. The Passmark G2D score is 914, and the DX12 Passmark score is 78. These results indicate that the RTX PRO 5000 performs far better in modern workloads than in legacy DirectX paths, which is consistent with its architecture. The Arc A380E has no numbers to compare, so its relative standing cannot be quantified from the database. The data confirms that the RTX PRO 5000 is a measured, active product with substantial benchmark presence, while the Arc A380E is an end-of-life part with no recorded performance data.
Where Each One Wins
The RTX PRO 5000 72 GB Blackwell wins in every measurable category in the database, simply because it is the only one of the two with benchmark results. Its 24310 Passmark G3D score and 15667 GPU Compute score show dominance in general 3D rendering and compute tasks. Its 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 9579.5 indicates modern DirectX 12 performance. The Arc A380E, with no benchmarks, cannot claim a single recorded win. The RTX PRO 5000 also leads in hardware resources: 14080 shading units versus 1024, 440 TMUs versus 64, 160 ROPs versus 32, 110 RT cores versus 8, and 440 tensor cores versus none. Its FP32 throughput is 66.94 TFLOPS versus 4.096 TFLOPS, and FP16 is 66.94 TFLOPS versus 8.192 TFLOPS. Memory capacity is 72 GB GDDR7 versus 6 GB GDDR6, with bandwidth of 1.34 TB/s versus 186.0 GB/s. The RTX PRO 5000 delivers 380.3 GPixel/s pixel rate and 1,045.9 GTexel/s texture rate, compared to 64.00 GPixel/s and 128.0 GTexel/s for the Arc A380E. The Arc A380E's only advantages are its lower TDP of 75 W versus 300 W, its single-slot width versus dual-slot, and its lack of power connectors versus a 16-pin connector. The Arc A380E also uses a smaller 157 mm² die with 7,200 million transistors, while the RTX PRO 5000 uses a 750 mm² die with 92,200 million transistors. The data indicates that the RTX PRO 5000 wins in raw performance, memory, and feature set, while the Arc A380E wins only in power efficiency and physical footprint.
The Verdict
The data is unambiguous. The NVIDIA RTX PRO 5000 72 GB Blackwell is the superior product in every recorded performance metric. Its 66.94 TFLOPS FP32 throughput is 16.3 times that of the Arc A380E's 4.096 TFLOPS. Its 1.34 TB/s memory bandwidth dwarfs the Arc A380E's 186.0 GB/s. The RTX PRO 5000 supports 72 GB of GDDR7 memory, while the Arc A380E has 6 GB of GDDR6. The Arc A380E cannot compete on any benchmark, as it has no recorded scores. The RTX PRO 5000's nearest rivals in the database are the GTX 460 SE and GTX 580M, both within 0.3% of its average score, which suggests its raw average is modest, but its specific test scores show high peaks in G3D and compute. The Arc A380E, with zero benchmarks and an end-of-life status, offers no data to support any performance claim. The RTX PRO 5000 is the clear choice for any workload that requires measured performance, memory capacity, or modern API support. The Arc A380E might be appropriate only where low power draw and a single-slot form factor are critical, but no performance evidence exists to recommend it for demanding tasks.
