Analysis: Intel Arc B370 vs NVIDIA B300
Head-to-Head Benchmarks
The recorded data contains a single benchmark result for the Intel Arc B370: a 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 1184. The NVIDIA B300 has no recorded benchmark scores in the database, so direct head-to-head comparisons rely on the Arc B370's position against its nearest rivals and the B300's percentile placement.
The Arc B370's score of 1184 places it in the 5th percentile of all GPUs. Its nearest rivals are tightly clustered: the ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5570 scores 1186, which is 0.2% higher than the Arc B370; the ATI Radeon HD 5770 scores 1190, a 0.5% advantage; the AMD Radeon HD 7650M scores 1192, 0.7% ahead. On the other side, the AMD FirePro M2000 scores 1168, which is 1.4% lower than the Arc B370. These deltas are small, indicating the Arc B370 sits in a narrow performance band where movement of a few points changes its standing.
The NVIDIA B300 sits in the 50th percentile of all GPUs, a substantially higher placement than the Arc B370's 5th percentile. However, the B300 has no average benchmark score in the database, and no rivals are listed. The 50th percentile placement suggests the B300 is not a top-tier performer across the full GPU database, but the lack of a concrete score prevents a numeric comparison.
The data shows no head-to-head benchmark entries between the two items. The Arc B370 holds a recorded score; the B300 does not. Any performance relationship between them must be inferred from their percentile positions, which indicate a wide gap, though the absence of a B300 score limits precision.
Architecture Differences
The Intel Arc B370 is built on the Panther Lake chip using the Xe3-LPG architecture, part of the Arc Graphics-M (Panther Lake) generation. It uses a 3 nm process from Intel. The NVIDIA B300 uses the GB110 chip with the Blackwell Ultra architecture, part of the Server Blackwell (Bxx) generation, fabricated on a 5 nm process from TSMC. The node difference is significant: 3 nm versus 5 nm, with Intel's process being the more advanced of the two.
The B300 contains 104,000 million transistors, while the Arc B370's transistor count is listed as unknown. The B300's die size is also not recorded, nor is the Arc B370's. The B300 is a server-class part with a 1400 W TDP, whereas the Arc B370 is an integrated graphics processor (IGP) with a 25 W TDP. The form factors reflect this: the Arc B370 is an IGP with no power connectors, while the B300 is an SXM Module with a suggested PSU of 1800 W.
Memory configurations differ completely. The Arc B370 uses system-shared memory, with type, bus width, and bandwidth all listed as system-dependent. The B300 has 144 GB of HBM3e memory on a 4096-bit bus, delivering 4.10 TB/s of bandwidth. The B300's memory clock is 2000 MHz with 8 Gbps effective, while the Arc B370's memory clock is tied to the system.
The Arc B370 supports DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4. The B300 lists no API support in the database. Display outputs differ as well: the Arc B370's outputs are portable-device dependent, while the B300 has no outputs. The bus interface for the Arc B370 is IGP, whereas the B300 uses PCIe 5.0 x16.

Where Each One Wins
The Arc B370 wins on integration and portability. It is an IGP with a 25 W TDP, no power connectors, and a bus interface of IGP, making it suitable for compact systems where a discrete card is not an option. Its display outputs are dependent on the portable device, which fits a mobile or integrated context. It also brings a full API stack, including DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4, which the B300 lacks entirely in the database. Its 10 RT cores provide hardware ray tracing support, a feature the B300 does not list.
The B300 wins on raw compute and memory capacity. Its 18,944 shading units, 592 tensor cores, and 592 TMUs dwarf the Arc B370's 1,280 shading units and 40 TMUs. FP32 performance is 76.99 TFLOPS versus 6.144 TFLOPS, and FP16 performance reaches 1,231.8 TFLOPS against 12.29 TFLOPS. The 144 GB HBM3e memory with 4.10 TB/s bandwidth is a server-class configuration, while the Arc B370 relies on system-shared memory with dependent bandwidth. The B300 also has a higher pixel rate (48.77 GPixel/s versus 48.00 GPixel/s) and a dramatically higher texture rate (1,202.9 GTexel/s versus 96.00 GTexel/s).
The benchmark data shows the Arc B370 with a concrete score of 1184 in 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12, placing it in the 5th percentile. The B300 has no benchmark scores recorded, so its 50th percentile placement is not supported by a measured result in the database. The Arc B370's nearest rivals are all within 1.4% of its score, indicating a tight competitive cluster at its performance level. The B300's position in the 50th percentile suggests a different performance tier, but without a recorded score, the database does not quantify the gap.
The use cases split along architectural lines. The Arc B370 suits systems needing integrated graphics with modern API coverage and ray tracing support at low power. The B300 targets server workloads requiring massive memory capacity, high-bandwidth HBM3e, and tensor core acceleration, with a power envelope that demands an 1800 W suggested PSU. The B300's predecessor is Server Hopper and its successor is Server Rubin, confirming its placement in a server product line, while the Arc B370 belongs to the Arc Graphics-M (Panther Lake) generation for mobile and integrated use.
