Intel Arc B370 vs NVIDIA RTX 500 Mobile Ada Generation Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The recorded data contains a single benchmark result for the Intel Arc B370, a 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 run that produced a score of 1184 points. The NVIDIA RTX 500 Mobile Ada Generation has no recorded benchmark scores in the database, which limits direct comparison to this single data point.

The Intel Arc B370's score of 1184 places it at the 5th percentile of all GPUs in the database. Its nearest rivals provide context for this result. The ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5570 scores 1186, a 0.2% difference. The ATI Radeon HD 5770 scores 1190, a 0.5% difference. The AMD Radeon HD 7650M scores 1192, a 0.7% difference. The AMD FirePro M2000 scores 1168, which is 1.4% behind the Arc B370.

The Arc B370's benchmark result is effectively at parity with these older discrete and mobile graphics parts, all of which cluster within a 24-point span. The 1184 score indicates that the Intel part delivers performance comparable to a mid-range GPU from roughly a decade and a half earlier in the database's historical record.

The NVIDIA RTX 500 Mobile Ada Generation has no benchmark entries, meaning no direct performance comparison can be derived from the recorded measurements. Its percentile rating of 50 places it at the median of all GPUs in the database, but this percentile is not tied to any explicit score in the data.

Where Each One Wins

The Intel Arc B370's single benchmark result shows it trading blows with legacy GPUs. It sits 0.2% behind the ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5570, 0.5% behind the ATI Radeon HD 5770, and 0.7% behind the AMD Radeon HD 7650M. It sits 1.4% ahead of the AMD FirePro M2000. These margins are negligible, within run-to-run variance for any benchmark.

The Arc B370 wins against the FirePro M2000, a workstation-oriented part, by a slim margin. It loses to the three other rivals by equally slim margins. This places the Intel part in a narrow performance band where no single rival holds a decisive advantage.

The NVIDIA RTX 500 Mobile Ada Generation has no recorded wins in the database because no benchmark scores exist for it. The data cannot establish any performance advantage for the NVIDIA part. The wins tally shows 0 for both products, reflecting the absence of head-to-head benchmark data.

For the Arc B370, the data suggests it is suited to tasks where a modest, power-efficient integrated GPU is sufficient. Its 25 W TDP and system-shared memory configuration point to lightweight workloads. The NVIDIA part, with its 35 W TDP and dedicated 4 GB GDDR6 memory, targets tasks that benefit from dedicated VRAM, but the database lacks scores to quantify that benefit.

Architecture Differences

The Intel Arc B370 uses the Panther Lake chip with the Xe3-LPG architecture, part of the Arc Graphics-M (Panther Lake) generation. It is fabricated on a 3 nm process at Intel's own foundry. The NVIDIA RTX 500 Mobile Ada Generation uses the AD107 chip with the Ada Lovelace architecture, part of the Ada-MW (x000A) generation. It is fabricated on a 5 nm process at TSMC.

The process node difference is significant: Intel's 3 nm node versus TSMC's 5 nm node. The Intel part is denser in process technology, but the database records no transistor count or die size for it. The NVIDIA part has 18,900 million transistors on a 159 mm² die, yielding a transistor density of 118.9 million transistors per square millimeter.

The Intel Arc B370 has 1280 shading units, 40 texture mapping units, 20 raster operation units, and 10 ray tracing cores. It has no tensor cores recorded. The NVIDIA RTX 500 Mobile Ada Generation has 2048 shading units, 64 texture mapping units, 32 raster operation units, 16 ray tracing cores, and 64 tensor cores.

The shading unit count difference is substantial: NVIDIA's 2048 versus Intel's 1280, a 60% advantage for NVIDIA. The texture mapping units follow the same pattern: 64 versus 40, a 60% advantage. Raster operation units: 32 versus 20, a 60% advantage. Ray tracing cores: 16 versus 10, a 60% advantage. The NVIDIA part also includes tensor cores, which the Intel part lacks entirely.

The NVIDIA part's FP32 throughput is 8.294 TFLOPS, while the Intel part delivers 6.144 TFLOPS. The NVIDIA part's FP16 throughput matches its FP32 at 8.294 TFLOPS with a 1:1 ratio, while the Intel part achieves 12.29 TFLOPS FP16 with a 2:1 ratio. The Intel part's FP16 advantage comes from its 2:1 rate, doubling its FP32 output.

The NVIDIA part uses GDDR6 memory with 4 GB capacity, a 64-bit bus, and 128.0 GB/s bandwidth. The Intel part uses system-shared memory, meaning its memory size, type, bus width, and bandwidth are all system dependent. The Intel part's memory clock is also listed as system shared, while the NVIDIA part runs its memory at 2000 MHz with 16 Gbps effective speed.

Both parts support DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4. Both are integrated form factors (IGP) with no power connectors and portable-device-dependent display outputs.
