Intel Arc B370 vs Intel Data Center GPU Max 1100 Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The recorded database contains a single benchmark entry for the Intel Arc B370: a 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 1184. The Intel Data Center GPU Max 1100 has no benchmark scores recorded in the database, with an average benchmark score of 0. This makes a direct head-to-head comparison impossible based on measured data. The Arc B370 sits at the 5th percentile among all GPUs, meaning 95% of recorded GPUs score higher. Its nearest rivals in the database are all older discrete graphics parts: the ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5570 scores 1186 (a 0.2% advantage over the Arc B370), the ATI Radeon HD 5770 scores 1190 (0.5% ahead), and the AMD Radeon HD 7650M scores 1192 (0.7% ahead). The AMD FirePro M2000 trails with 1168, which is 1.4% behind the Arc B370.

The Data Center GPU Max 1100 holds a 50th percentile ranking among all GPUs, but with no actual benchmark scores to substantiate that position, the percentile appears derived from its specification profile rather than measured performance. The absence of head-to-head benchmark entries in the database means there are no recorded wins for either product in direct competition.

Where Each One Wins

The Arc B370 demonstrates measurable performance in the one recorded test, producing a 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 1184. This places it in a tight cluster with the ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5570, ATI Radeon HD 5770, and AMD Radeon HD 7650M, all within a 0.7% range. The Arc B370 also outperforms the AMD FirePro M2000 by 1.4%. For scenarios involving DX12 workload execution, the recorded data shows the Arc B370 can complete the Steel Nomad benchmark, which is a meaningful result for an integrated graphics solution.

The Data Center GPU Max 1100 has zero recorded benchmark results. The database shows no performance data for this part in any test. Its specifications, however, indicate capabilities far beyond what the Arc B370 can offer: 48 GB of HBM2e memory compared to system-shared memory, 7168 shading units versus 1280, 448 texture mapping units versus 40, and 56 ray tracing cores versus 10. The Data Center GPU Max 1100 also supports PCIe 5.0 x16 connectivity, while the Arc B370 uses an integrated graphics processor (IGP) interface with no power connectors and no display outputs on the data center part.

For compute-heavy workloads such as large-scale data processing or high-bandwidth memory operations, the specification data points strongly toward the Data Center GPU Max 1100 as the more capable option. Its FP32 throughput of 22.22 TFLOPS and FP16 throughput of 22.22 TFLOPS (1:1 ratio) dwarf the Arc B370's 6.144 TFLOPS FP32 and 12.29 TFLOPS FP16 (2:1 ratio). The memory bandwidth difference is similarly stark: 1.23 TB/s versus system-dependent shared memory.

Architecture Differences

The two Intel GPUs come from fundamentally different architectural lineages. The Arc B370 uses the Panther Lake chip built on Xe3-LPG architecture with a 3 nm process node. It belongs to the Arc Graphics-M (Panther Lake) generation and is fabricated by Intel. The Data Center GPU Max 1100 uses the Ponte Vecchio chip with Generation 12.5 architecture, built on a 10 nm process node, also fabricated by Intel. The transistor count for the Data Center GPU Max 1100 is recorded as 100,000 million transistors on a 1280 mm² die, yielding a transistor density of 78.1 million transistors per mm². The Arc B370's transistor count and die size are listed as unknown.

The Arc B370 features 1280 shading units, 40 TMUs, and 20 ROPs, with 10 ray tracing cores. The Data Center GPU Max 1100 has 7168 shading units, 448 TMUs, and 0 ROPs, with 56 ray tracing cores. The zero ROP count for the Data Center GPU Max 1100 is notable; its pixel rate is recorded as 0 MPixel/s, while the Arc B370 delivers 48.00 GPixel/s. This suggests the data center part is not optimized for traditional rasterization output. The texture rate for the Data Center GPU Max 1100 is 694.4 GTexel/s, far exceeding the Arc B370's 96.00 GTexel/s.

Clock speeds differ substantially. The Arc B370 runs at a 300 MHz base clock and 2400 MHz boost clock. The Data Center GPU Max 1100 has a 1000 MHz base clock and 1550 MHz boost clock. Memory configurations are completely divergent: the Arc B370 uses system-shared memory with a system-dependent bus width and bandwidth, while the Data Center GPU Max 1100 uses 48 GB of HBM2e on an 8192-bit bus with 1.23 TB/s bandwidth. The memory clock for the data center part is listed as 600 MHz with 1200 Mbps effective speed.

API support differs as well. The Arc B370 supports DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4. The Data Center GPU Max 1100 supports DirectX 12 (12_1) and OpenGL 4.6, but has no Vulkan support recorded. Power characteristics are also widely separated: the Arc B370 has a 25 W TDP with no power connectors and no suggested PSU, while the Data Center GPU Max 1100 has a 300 W TDP with a single 12-pin power connector and a 700 W suggested PSU. The Arc B370 is an integrated graphics processor with portable device dependent display outputs, while the Data Center GPU Max 1100 is a dual-slot card measuring 267 mm (10.5 inches) in length with no display outputs.

The Verdict

The database presents an unusual comparison scenario because only one of the two GPUs has measurable benchmark data. The Arc B370 has a recorded performance score of 1184 in 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12, placing it at the 5th percentile among all GPUs. The Data Center GPU Max 1100 has no benchmark scores, yet sits at the 50th percentile, indicating the database ranks it based on its specification profile.

For users requiring proven DX12 benchmark performance, the Arc B370 is the only option with measured results. Its score places it in a competitive range with older ATI and AMD parts from over a decade ago, as evidenced by the rival scores of 1168 to 1192. The Arc B370's integrated nature, 25 W TDP, and portable device dependent display outputs make it suitable for lightweight mobile computing scenarios.

For users requiring massive compute throughput, high-capacity memory, and data center deployment, the Data Center GPU Max 1100's specifications dominate. Its 22.22 TFLOPS FP32 output is 3.6 times the Arc B370's 6.144 TFLOPS. Its 48 GB of HBM2e memory with 1.23 TB/s bandwidth is in a different class entirely from system-shared memory. The 7168 shading units and 56 ray tracing cores indicate a part designed for heavy parallel workloads. However, the complete absence of benchmark data means there is no recorded verification of how these specifications translate into real-world performance.

The data also reveals a significant architectural gap. The Arc B370 uses a 3 nm process with Xe3-LPG architecture, while the Data Center GPU Max 1100 uses a 10 nm process with Generation 12.5 architecture. The Data Center GPU Max 1100 carries 100,000 million transistors on a 1280 mm² die, while the Arc B370's transistor count is unknown. The Arc B370 supports Vulkan 1.4, which the Data Center GPU Max 1100 does not, and the Arc B370 has a higher DirectX feature level (12_2 versus 12_1). The Data Center GPU Max 1100 has zero ROPs and a 0 MPixel/s pixel rate, confirming its design is not intended for traditional display rasterization.
