Intel Arc B570 vs Intel Arc Pro B70 Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The recorded data shows no direct head-to-head benchmark entries between the Intel Arc B570 and the Intel Arc Pro B70. The database lists no shared test results for these two cards, which means a direct score-by-score comparison cannot be derived from the measurements. However, the available individual benchmark data for the Arc B570 provides a reference point for interpreting its standing, while the Arc Pro B70 has no recorded benchmark scores at all.

The Arc B570 posts an average benchmark score of 20556 across the tests where it appears. Its nearest rival, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Mobile, scores 20534, placing the B570 0.1% ahead. The Intel Arc A750 scores 20582, which puts the B570 0.1% behind that card. The NVIDIA Quadro M4000M scores 20480, leaving the B570 0.4% ahead, and the AMD Radeon R9 M390X scores 20662, meaning the B570 trails by 0.5%. These deltas are small, so the B570 sits in a tightly clustered performance band around the 20500 to 20650 average score range.

In individual tests, the Arc B570 records a 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 2649. Its Geekbench OpenCL score is 83514, and its Geekbench Vulkan score is 96844. PassMark results include a G3D score of 14195, a GPU compute score of 7281, a G2D score of 661, and legacy DirectX results of 164 for DX9, 118 for DX11, 72 for DX12, and 65 for DX10. The B570 sits at the 65th percentile among all GPUs in the database.

Because the Arc Pro B70 has an empty benchmark array, there are no exact numbers to compare against the B570 in any workload. The only performance-related data point for the Pro B70 is its 50th percentile ranking among all GPUs, which is a derived field rather than a direct measurement. That percentile is 15 points lower than the B570's 65th percentile, which suggests the Pro B70 is positioned lower in the overall distribution of GPU performance, but the absence of raw scores prevents a precise delta calculation.

Architecture Differences

Both cards use the Xe2-HPG architecture from Intel and are built on a 5 nm process at TSMC. The similarity ends there. The Arc B570 uses the BMG-G21 chip with a die size of 272 mm² and 19,600 million transistors, yielding a transistor density of 72.1M per mm². The Arc Pro B70 uses the BMG-G31 chip with a die size of 368 mm², which is 96 mm² larger, and its transistor count is listed as unknown in the database, so no density figure can be stated.

The Arc B570 belongs to the Battlemage (Arc 5) generation, while the Arc Pro B70 belongs to the Battlemage (Pro Series) generation. The B570's predecessor is listed as Alchemist, and its release date is 2025-01-15. The Pro B70 has no predecessor listed and a release date of 2026-03-25. The B570 carries a launch MSRP of 219 USD, while the Pro B70 carries a launch MSRP of 949 USD.

Clock behavior differs significantly. The B570 runs at a fixed 2500 MHz for both base and boost. The Pro B70 has a base clock of 2280 MHz and a boost clock of 2800 MHz, meaning it can ramp 300 MHz higher under load but idles 220 MHz lower at base. Memory clocks are identical at 2375 MHz with 19 Gbps effective speed.

The memory subsystem is a major differentiator. The B570 has 10 GB of GDDR6 on a 160 bit bus, delivering 380.0 GB/s of bandwidth. The Pro B70 has 32 GB of GDDR6 on a 256 bit bus, delivering 608.0 GB/s. That is more than three times the capacity and a 228.0 GB/s bandwidth advantage for the Pro B70.

Compute resources scale up substantially on the Pro B70. The B570 has 2304 shading units, 144 TMUs, 80 ROPs, and 18 ray tracing cores. The Pro B70 has 4096 shading units, 256 TMUs, 128 ROPs, and 32 ray tracing cores. The Pro B70 nearly doubles each of these counts. Pixel rate rises from 200.0 GPixel/s on the B570 to 358.4 GPixel/s on the Pro B70. Texture rate rises from 360.0 GTexel/s to 716.8 GTexel/s. FP32 throughput goes from 11.52 TFLOPS to 22.94 TFLOPS, and FP16 throughput goes from 23.04 TFLOPS to 45.88 TFLOPS, both using a 2:1 ratio.

Power and interface specifications also differ. The B570 has a TDP of 150 W and a suggested PSU of 450 W. The Pro B70 has a TDP of 230 W and a suggested PSU of 550 W. Both are dual-slot cards with a single 8-pin power connector. The B570 uses PCIe 4.0 x8, while the Pro B70 uses PCIe 5.0 x16, a wider and newer bus interface. Display outputs are identical: 1x HDMI 2.1a and 3x DisplayPort 2.1. Both support DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4.

Physical dimensions differ slightly. The B570 measures 272 mm in length and 115 mm in height. The Pro B70 measures 267 mm in length and 110 mm in height, with a width of 39 mm listed, while the B570 has no width recorded.

The Verdict

The data indicates that the Arc B570 is the only one of the two with measurable benchmark results, and those results place it in a narrow competitive band around the 20500 average score mark. Its 65th percentile ranking among all GPUs reflects a card that lands above the median in the database. The Arc Pro B70, by contrast, has no recorded benchmark scores and sits at the 50th percentile, a derived position that does not carry the same evidentiary weight as actual measurements.

For users selecting strictly from the recorded data, the Arc B570 is the choice when benchmark evidence is required, since it has a full set of scores across 3DMark, Geekbench, and PassMark tests. The Pro B70 cannot be assessed on measured performance because the database contains no entries for it. Its specifications, however, show a much larger chip, more memory, higher throughput, and a wider bus, which are architectural facts but not performance results.

The Pro B70's 32 GB memory capacity and 608.0 GB/s bandwidth make it a card aimed at capacity-heavy workloads, while its 22.94 TFLOPS FP32 rate and 32 ray tracing cores indicate substantially higher theoretical compute. The B570's 150 W TDP and 450 W suggested PSU make it a lower-power option, and its 10 GB memory capacity is far smaller. The launch MSRP difference is large, but the database does not provide enough measured performance data on the Pro B70 to determine whether that price difference translates into a proportional performance advantage.

Where Each One Wins

The Arc B570 wins on the basis of recorded performance data. It has a full suite of benchmark results, an average score of 20556, and a 65th percentile ranking. It also wins on power efficiency, with a 150 W TDP and a 450 W suggested PSU, compared to the Pro B70's 230 W TDP and 550 W suggested PSU. Its 2500 MHz base clock matches its boost clock, which indicates a steady clock profile without the need for thermal headroom. Its 272 mm length and 115 mm height are slightly larger than the Pro B70's dimensions, but it has no recorded width, so a complete size comparison is not possible.

The Arc Pro B70 wins on raw specification counts. Its 32 GB memory capacity is 22 GB higher than the B570's 10 GB. Its 608.0 GB/s bandwidth beats the B570 by 228.0 GB/s. Its 4096 shading units, 256 TMUs, 128 ROPs, and 32 ray tracing cores all double or nearly double the B570's counts. Its FP32 throughput of 22.94 TFLOPS is roughly double the B570's 11.52 TFLOPS, and its FP16 throughput of 45.88 TFLOPS is similarly double. Its 358.4 GPixel/s pixel rate and 716.8 GTexel/s texture rate both exceed the B570's 200.0 GPixel/s and 360.0 GTexel/s. Its PCIe 5.0 x16 interface is a full generation and a wider link than the B570's PCIe 4.0 x8. Its 2800 MHz boost clock is 300 MHz higher, and its die size is 96 mm² larger.

The Pro B70 also wins on interface and connectivity breadth in one respect: it uses PCIe 5.0 x16, which provides more bandwidth to the host system than the B570's PCIe 4.0 x8. Both cards share identical display outputs and API support, so neither wins on those fronts. The B570 has a release date of 2025-01-15, while the Pro B70 has a release date of 2026-03-25, so the B570 was available earlier in the database timeline.
