Intel Arc B770 vs Intel Arc Graphics 24EU Comparison

Where Each One Wins

The two products occupy completely separate performance tiers. Intel Arc B770 is a discrete graphics card built for full-scale rendering workloads. Intel Arc Graphics 24EU is an integrated processor graphics unit designed for basic display output and light acceleration.

The data shows a decisive split in benchmark outcomes. Arc B770 holds zero recorded benchmark wins in the database, while Arc Graphics 24EU holds one recorded benchmark win. However, this asymmetry reflects the absence of comparable test results rather than actual performance equivalence. The single recorded score for Arc Graphics 24EU comes from 3dmark_3dmark_steel_nomad_dx12, where it scored 733. Arc B770 has no recorded benchmark scores at all.

The percentile placement confirms the gap. Arc B770 sits at the 50th percentile against all GPUs, placing it in the middle of the entire GPU population. Arc Graphics 24EU sits at the 3rd percentile, meaning it ranks below the overwhelming majority of graphics processors in the database.

Arc Graphics 24EU wins in efficiency-oriented use cases. Its 65 W TDP allows it to operate without additional power connectors. The bus interface is Ring Bus, meaning it communicates through the processor's internal fabric rather than a PCIe slot. Display outputs are motherboard dependent, so the ports available depend entirely on the host system's design.

Arc B770 wins in every scenario that demands raw throughput. It uses a PCIe 4.0 x16 interface, provides dedicated 16 GB GDDR6 memory, and requires a 550 W suggested power supply. The card occupies a dual-slot form factor and needs both a 6-pin and an 8-pin power connector.

Architecture Differences

The two products come from different Intel graphics architectures. Arc B770 uses Xe2-HPG architecture on the BMG-G31 chip, belonging to the Battlemage generation. Arc Graphics 24EU uses Xe-LPG architecture on the Arrow Lake-S chip, belonging to the Arc Graphics generation for Arrow Lake processors.

Fabrication nodes differ substantially. Arc B770 is built on a 5 nm process at TSMC. Arc Graphics 24EU uses a 3 nm process, also at TSMC. The smaller node gives the integrated part a density advantage. Arc Graphics 24EU packs 17,800 million transistors into a 243 mm² die, yielding a transistor density of 73.3M per mm². Arc B770 has a larger 368 mm² die, but its transistor count is listed as unknown in the database.

Clock behavior differs by design. Arc B770 runs at a 2100 MHz base clock and 2400 MHz boost clock. Arc Graphics 24EU starts at 300 MHz base and boosts to 2000 MHz. The integrated part's low base clock suggests aggressive power management, while the discrete card maintains high sustained clocks.

Compute resources show a massive disparity. Arc B770 provides 4096 shading units, 256 texture mapping units, and 128 raster operation units. Arc Graphics 24EU provides 192 shading units, 12 TMUs, and 6 ROPs. The discrete card has 32 ray tracing cores. Arc Graphics 24EU has none listed.

Memory architecture is fundamentally different. Arc B770 uses 16 GB of GDDR6 on a 256-bit bus, delivering 512.0 GB/s of bandwidth. Memory runs at 2000 MHz with 16 Gbps effective transfer rate. Arc Graphics 24EU uses system shared memory, with bus width and bandwidth listed as system dependent. Its memory clock is likewise system shared.

Theoretical throughput numbers illustrate the scale. Arc B770 reaches 19.66 TFLOPS FP32 and 39.32 TFLOPS FP16 at 2:1 ratio. Pixel rate is 307.2 GPixel/s and texture rate is 614.4 GTexel/s. Arc Graphics 24EU reaches 768.0 GFLOPS FP32 and 1.536 TFLOPS FP16. Pixel rate is 12.00 GPixel/s and texture rate is 24.00 GTexel/s.

Both parts support the same API set: DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4. Display outputs differ. Arc B770 provides 1x HDMI 2.1a and 3x DisplayPort 2.1. Arc Graphics 24EU's outputs are motherboard dependent.

Release timing differs. Arc Graphics 24EU launched on 2024-10-23. Arc B770 carries a release date of 2025-12-31. Arc B770's predecessor is Alchemist, while Arc Graphics 24EU's predecessor is HD Graphics.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The database contains no direct head-to-head benchmark results between these two products. Arc B770 has no recorded benchmark scores, and the only recorded score for Arc Graphics 24EU is the single 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 result.

That single score places Arc Graphics 24EU at 733 points. Its nearest rivals in the database are instructive. Intel Arc Graphics 32EU and Intel Arc Graphics 64EU both score exactly 733, resulting in a 0 percent delta. AMD Radeon HD 6470M scores 723, putting Arc Graphics 24EU 1.4 percent ahead. NVIDIA GeForce GT 415M scores 751, putting Arc Graphics 24EU 2.4 percent behind.

The near-identical scores across the Arc Graphics EU lineup indicate that the 24EU configuration delivers the same measured result as the 32EU and 64EU variants in this specific workload. The 24EU part keeps pace with its higher-EU siblings, at least in this single test.

Arc B770's 50th percentile standing suggests it performs in the middle of the GPU distribution, but without recorded benchmark scores the database cannot quantify its exact position against the 733-point result of Arc Graphics 24EU. The theoretical specifications indicate a large gap. Arc B770's FP32 throughput of 19.66 TFLOPS is roughly 25.6 times the 768.0 GFLOPS of Arc Graphics 24EU. Pixel rate is 25.6 times higher, and texture rate is also 25.6 times higher.

The 3rd percentile ranking for Arc Graphics 24EU means it outperforms only 3 percent of all GPUs in the database. The 50th percentile ranking for Arc B770 means it sits exactly at the median. These percentile values, combined with the theoretical throughput figures, support the conclusion that Arc B770 operates in a far higher performance class.

The Verdict

The data presents a clear hierarchy. Arc B770 is a discrete graphics card with dedicated memory, high compute throughput, and a mid-pack percentile ranking. Arc Graphics 24EU is an integrated GPU with shared memory, minimal compute resources, and a near-bottom percentile ranking.

Systems requiring discrete rendering capability should use Arc B770. The 16 GB GDDR6 memory, 512.0 GB/s bandwidth, and 19.66 TFLOPS FP32 throughput place it in a completely different category from the integrated part. The dual-slot cooler, 6-pin and 8-pin power connectors, and 550 W suggested power supply indicate a card designed for sustained heavy loads.

Systems requiring basic display output with minimal power draw should use Arc Graphics 24EU. The 65 W TDP and lack of power connectors make it suitable for compact builds. The 3 nm process and 73.3M per mm² transistor density indicate a modern, efficient design. Its 3rd percentile ranking confirms it handles only light graphics work.

The benchmark data shows no overlap. Arc Graphics 24EU's nearest rivals are decades-old mobile GPUs like the AMD Radeon HD 6470M and NVIDIA GeForce GT 415M. Arc B770's nearest rivals are not recorded in the database, but its 50th percentile placement puts it against the median of all GPUs.

The choice depends on workload. Rendering, gaming, and compute tasks require Arc B770. Office productivity, media playback, and basic system operation can rely on Arc Graphics 24EU. The two products never compete for the same user.
