Intel Arc A570M vs Intel Arc Graphics 4 Xe Mobile Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The database contains a single recorded benchmark for the Intel Arc A570M, a Geekbench OpenCL score of 58,239. The Intel Arc Graphics 4 Xe Mobile has no recorded benchmark scores in the database, so direct numerical comparison is limited to the A570M's performance against its nearest rivals.

The Arc A570M's score places it at the 88th percentile of all GPUs in the database. This is a strong result, positioning it near the top of the performance distribution. Its closest competitor in the recorded data is the AMD Radeon RX 6950 XT, which scores 58,392, a delta of -0.3% relative to the A570M. That means the A570M trails the RX 6950 XT by a negligible margin, effectively a statistical tie. The AMD Radeon RX 5600 OEM scores 58,085, putting it 0.3% behind the A570M, again a near-identical result. The NVIDIA P102-100 scores 58,528, which is 0.5% ahead of the A570M, and the AMD Radeon PRO V710 scores 58,657, 0.7% ahead.

These deltas are all within a single percentage point, indicating that the Arc A570M delivers compute performance in the same tier as a wide range of discrete desktop GPUs, from the RX 6950 XT down to the RX 5600 OEM. The spread between the slowest rival (RX 5600 OEM at 58,085) and the fastest (PRO V710 at 58,657) is only 572 points, less than 1%. The A570M sits squarely in the middle of this cluster.

For the Arc Graphics 4 Xe Mobile, the absence of benchmark data means no score can be cited. Its percentile ranking of 50th among all GPUs is based on the database's overall distribution, but without a recorded average score, no specific performance figure is available. The head-to-head benchmarks list is empty, and the wins count is zero for both parts.

Where Each One Wins

The Arc A570M wins on raw compute throughput in the one recorded test. Its Geekbench OpenCL score of 58,239 is a concrete data point. The A570M also has a substantial hardware resource advantage, which translates directly to compute capability. It uses 2,048 shading units, 128 texture mapping units, 64 render output units, and 16 ray tracing cores. Its pixel rate is 83.20 GPixel/s, and its texture rate is 166.4 GTexel/s. FP32 throughput is 5.325 TFLOPS, with FP16 at 10.65 TFLOPS using the 2:1 ratio. These figures are all recorded in the database and indicate a part designed for higher-end mobile workloads.

The Arc Graphics 4 Xe Mobile wins on efficiency and integration. It has a recorded TDP of 25 W, compared to 75 W for the A570M. It uses system shared memory, meaning no dedicated VRAM allocation is required. Its boost clock is 2300 MHz, significantly higher than the A570M's 1300 MHz boost, though its base clock is lower at 300 MHz versus 900 MHz. The 4 Xe Mobile has 512 shading units, 32 TMUs, 16 ROPs, and 4 ray tracing cores. Its pixel rate is 36.80 GPixel/s, texture rate is 73.60 GTexel/s, FP32 is 2.355 TFLOPS, and FP16 is 4.710 TFLOPS. All of these are less than half the A570M's corresponding figures, but the power draw is one-third.

The architecture split is clear. The A570M, built on TSMC's 6 nm process with the DG2-256 chip, is a dedicated graphics processor with 8 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 128-bit bus, delivering 224.0 GB/s of bandwidth. The 4 Xe Mobile, on Intel's 3 nm process with the Panther Lake chip, depends entirely on system memory, with bandwidth listed as system dependent. The A570M uses a PCIe 4.0 x8 interface, while the 4 Xe Mobile uses an integrated graphics processor (IGP) bus interface.

The Verdict

The recorded data shows the Arc A570M as a mid-to-high-tier mobile discrete GPU, performing within 1% of several well-known desktop cards in Geekbench OpenCL. Its 88th percentile ranking and the near-tie with the RX 6950 XT indicate that it can handle demanding compute tasks competently. The 75 W TDP, 8 GB of dedicated GDDR6, and 224.0 GB/s bandwidth make it suitable for applications where sustained memory throughput matters.

The Arc Graphics 4 Xe Mobile, with no recorded benchmark scores, cannot be assessed for raw performance from the database. Its 50th percentile ranking suggests it sits near the middle of the distribution, but that is an aggregate position, not a measured result. Its 25 W TDP and system shared memory point to a part designed for thin-and-light systems where power efficiency and simplicity take priority over peak throughput.

Who should pick which: the A570M is the choice for users who need a measurable compute advantage and have a chassis that can dissipate 75 W. The 4 Xe Mobile is the choice for systems where the integrated GPU eliminates the need for separate VRAM and where the lower power envelope is a priority. The data does not support a performance comparison between the two, only a capability and efficiency comparison.
