AMD Radeon RX 7600 XT vs Intel Arc A380E x2 Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The recorded database contains no direct head-to-head benchmark entries for the AMD Radeon RX 7600 XT versus the Intel Arc A380E x2. The head-to-head array is empty, and the win counters for both parts sit at zero. This absence of matched testing means no single workload can be cited where one card definitively outranks the other in a same-run comparison.

What the database does provide is a full benchmark profile for the AMD Radeon RX 7600 XT and an empty benchmark array for the Intel Arc A380E x2. The RX 7600 XT posts an average benchmark score of 17083 across its tested suite, with a percentile rank of 60 among all GPUs in the database. The Arc A380E x2 has no recorded scores and an average benchmark score of zero, placing it at the 50th percentile by default.

The RX 7600 XT’s individual benchmark results show a wide spread of performance depending on the API and workload. In 3DMark Steel Nomad (DX12), it scores 2348. Geekbench OpenCL returns 92426, while Geekbench Vulkan returns 48366. Passmark scores range from 65 in DirectX 12 to 228 in DirectX 9, with DirectX 10 at 85, DirectX 11 at 167, G2D at 1030, G3D at 17132, and GPU compute at 8987.

Because the Arc A380E x2 has no recorded scores, the comparative analysis rests on the RX 7600 XT’s position against its nearest rivals in the database. The RX 7600 XT’s average score of 17083 places it 0.3% ahead of the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 690 (17037), 0.4% ahead of the AMD Radeon HD 7970M (17019), 0.9% ahead of the NVIDIA Tesla M4 (16932), and 0.7% behind the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 (17208). These delta percentages indicate a tightly clustered performance band around the 17000 score mark, with the RX 7600 XT sitting marginally above three of its four nearest rivals.

The lack of direct head-to-head data means no per-test win breakdown can be presented. The database records no wins for either part in any matched workload. For any user comparing these two cards, the measurable evidence begins and ends with the RX 7600 XT’s standalone results and its percentile placement relative to the broader GPU population.

Where Each One Wins

Without head-to-head benchmarks, the win analysis hinges on architectural and specification-derived expectations rather than measured outcomes. The RX 7600 XT carries a substantially larger compute configuration. Its 2048 shading units, 128 texture mapping units, and 64 render output units dwarf the Arc A380E x2’s 1024 shading units, 64 TMUs, and 32 ROPs. The RX 7600 XT also has 32 ray tracing cores versus 8 on the Arc A380E x2. These figures point to a clear advantage for the RX 7600 XT in raw pixel throughput, texture fill, and ray-traced workloads, though no benchmark confirms this directly.

Memory capacity and bandwidth also favor the RX 7600 XT. It ships with 16 GB of GDDR6 on a 128-bit bus, delivering 288.0 GB/s. The Arc A380E x2 offers 6 GB of GDDR6 on a 96-bit bus, yielding 186.0 GB/s. The RX 7600 XT holds a 102 GB/s bandwidth advantage and nearly three times the memory capacity, which would matter in texture-heavy or large-dataset scenarios if tested.

The Arc A380E x2’s only recorded advantage lies in its physical and power profile. It draws a 130 W TDP versus 190 W on the RX 7600 XT, and it fits in a single-slot form factor with a 6-pin power connector, whereas the RX 7600 XT is dual-slot with an 8-pin connector. The Arc A380E x2 also offers eight mini-DisplayPort 2.0 outputs, which exceeds the RX 7600 XT’s single HDMI 2.1a and three DisplayPort 2.1 outputs. For multi-display or embedded deployments, the Arc A380E x2’s output count and smaller footprint could be decisive, assuming performance parity is not required.

The RX 7600 XT’s FP32 throughput of 22.57 TFLOPS is more than five times the Arc A380E x2’s 4.096 TFLOPS. In FP16, the gap narrows but remains large: the RX 7600 XT delivers 22.57 TFLOPS at a 1:1 ratio, while the Arc A380E x2 reaches 8.192 TFLOPS at a 2:1 ratio. These compute figures, while not benchmarked, indicate the RX 7600 XT would dominate general-purpose GPU compute tasks, particularly those relying on FP32.

The RX 7600 XT also has a game clock of 2470 MHz, which the Arc A380E x2 lacks entirely. Memory clocks differ as well: the RX 7600 XT runs at 2250 MHz (18 Gbps effective), while the Arc A380E x2 runs at 1937 MHz (15.5 Gbps effective).

Memory capacity, bus width, and bandwidth all favor the RX 7600 XT: 16 GB versus 6 GB, 128-bit versus 96-bit, and 288.0 GB/s versus 186.0 GB/s. Compute resources follow the same pattern. The RX 7600 XT has 2048 shading units, 128 TMUs, 64 ROPs, and 32 RT cores. The Arc A380E x2 has 1024 shading units, 64 TMUs, 32 ROPs, and 8 RT cores. Pixel rate and texture rate reflect this: 176.3 GPixel/s and 352.6 GTexel/s on the RX 7600 XT versus 64.00 GPixel/s and 128.0 GTexel/s on the Arc A380E x2. FP32 throughput is 22.57 TFLOPS versus 4.096 TFLOPS, and FP16 is 22.57 TFLOPS (1:1) versus 8.192 TFLOPS (2:1).

Power and physical specifications diverge as well. The RX 7600 XT draws 190 W, uses a dual-slot cooler, and requires a 1x 8-pin connector with a 450 W suggested PSU. The Arc A380E x2 draws 130 W, fits in a single slot, uses a 1x 6-pin connector, and suggests a 300 W PSU. The RX 7600 XT measures 204 mm in length and 115 mm in height; the Arc A380E x2 is longer at 265 mm and taller at 127 mm, with a width of 20 mm. Display outputs differ: the RX 7600 XT provides 1x HDMI 2.1a and 3x DisplayPort 2.1, while the Arc A380E x2 provides 8x mini-DisplayPort 2.0. The RX 7600 XT has a launch MSRP of 329 USD; the Arc A380E x2 has no recorded launch MSRP. Production status differs, with the RX 7600 XT listed as Active and the Arc A380E x2 as End-of-life.

Architecture Differences

The architectural split between these two GPUs is fundamental. The RX 7600 XT belongs to the Radeon RX 7000 series, built on RDNA 3.0 with the codename "Hotpink Bonefish" and the Navi 33 chip. The Arc A380E x2 belongs to the Alchemist (Arc 3) generation, built on Xe-HPG with the DG2-128 chip. The RX 7600 XT’s generation is listed as Navi III (RX 7000), while the Arc A380E x2’s is Alchemist (Arc 3). The RX 7600 XT’s predecessor is Navi II and its successor is Navi IV; the Arc A380E x2’s predecessor is Xe Graphics and its successor is Battlemage.

Both cards use a 6 nm process at TSMC, but the architectural implementations diverge in memory and compute design. The RX 7600 XT uses a 128-bit memory interface, while the Arc A380E x2 uses a 96-bit interface. The RX 7600 XT’s FP16 operates at a 1:1 ratio with FP32, indicating a unified shader approach; the Arc A380E x2’s FP16 operates at a 2:1 ratio, meaning it can halve precision to double throughput. The RX 7600 XT does not list a tensor core count, and neither does the Arc A380E x2.

Both cards support DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4, so API-level feature parity exists. The RX 7600 XT’s display outputs cover HDMI 2.1a and DisplayPort 2.1, while the Arc A380E x2 uses mini-DisplayPort 2.0 exclusively. The RX 7600 XT has no recorded width dimension, while the Arc A380E x2 is 20 mm wide. The RX 7600 XT’s release date is 2024-01-23, and the Arc A380E x2’s is 2024-03-31. The RX 7600 XT remains in active production; the Arc A380E x2 is end-of-life.
