Intel Arc Graphics 1 Xe Mobile vs NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The database contains no shared benchmark results for the Intel Arc Graphics 1 Xe Mobile and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti. The Intel part has an empty benchmark array, while the NVIDIA adapter has ten recorded tests. This absence of overlapping data means a direct per-test comparison is not possible from the recorded measurements.

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti delivers substantial raw performance in its recorded suite. Its Passmark G3D score reaches 31,624, while the Passmark GPU Compute result hits 18,396. The Geekbench OpenCL score sits at 176,953, and the Vulkan result reaches 213,808. In 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12, the card records 5,024 points. The Passmark legacy tests show 352 in DirectX 9, 288 in DirectX 11, 187 in DirectX 10, and 116 in DirectX 12. The Passmark G2D score is 1,200.

The Intel Arc Graphics 1 Xe Mobile has no recorded benchmark scores in the database. Its average benchmark score is listed as zero, and its percentile versus all GPUs sits at 50. The NVIDIA card holds an 84th percentile position. The Intel part occupies the 50th percentile, which places it exactly at the median of all recorded GPUs, but this figure is not tied to any actual benchmark entries in the pack.

The absence of head-to-head data forces the analysis to rely on architectural and specification differences rather than measured performance deltas. The NVIDIA card's average benchmark score of 44,795 puts it in a competitive band with several nearby rivals. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 Mobile averages 45,152, which is 0.8% higher. The AMD Radeon Pro 5500 XT averages 45,384, 1.3% higher. The NVIDIA RTX A6000 averages 44,075, which is 1.6% lower. The Intel Arc A730M averages 45,592, 1.7% higher than the RTX 4070 Ti.

Where Each One Wins

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti wins every category where recorded data exists. Its compute throughput is the dominant factor. The card delivers 40.09 TFLOPS of FP32 performance and the same 40.09 TFLOPS for FP16 with a 1:1 ratio. The Intel Arc Graphics 1 Xe Mobile delivers 588.8 GFLOPS of FP32 and 1,177.6 GFLOPS of FP16 at a 2:1 ratio. The NVIDIA card's FP32 figure is roughly 68 times higher, and its FP16 output is about 34 times higher.

Texture and pixel processing follow the same pattern. The RTX 4070 Ti reaches a texture rate of 626.4 GTexel/s and a pixel rate of 208.8 GPixel/s. The Intel part manages 18.40 GTexel/s and 9.200 GPixel/s. The NVIDIA card has 240 texture mapping units and 80 raster output units, while the Intel part has 8 TMUs and 4 ROPs.

Memory bandwidth separates the two decisively. The RTX 4070 Ti uses 12 GB of GDDR6X on a 192-bit bus, delivering 504.2 GB/s. The Intel Arc Graphics 1 Xe Mobile uses system shared memory, with bandwidth listed as system dependent. The Intel part's memory type, bus width, and size are all system shared. This means the Intel adapter's memory performance depends entirely on the host platform, whereas the NVIDIA card has a fixed, dedicated memory subsystem.

Ray tracing resources also differ sharply. The RTX 4070 Ti has 60 ray tracing cores and 240 tensor cores. The Intel Arc Graphics 1 Xe Mobile has a single ray tracing core and no tensor core listing. The shading unit count is 7,680 for NVIDIA versus 128 for Intel.

The Verdict

The recorded data indicates two products aimed at entirely different segments. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti is a discrete, dual-slot add-in card with a 285 W TDP and a 600 W suggested power supply. It requires a 16-pin power connector and occupies PCIe 4.0 x16. Its 84th percentile ranking and average benchmark score of 44,795 place it among capable desktop-class GPUs. Its nearest rivals all cluster within roughly 2% of its average score, which confirms it sits in a tight performance band.

The Intel Arc Graphics 1 Xe Mobile is an integrated graphics processor with a 25 W TDP, no power connectors, and an IGP bus interface. It uses the Wildcat Lake chip with Xe3-LPG architecture, built on a 3 nm process at Intel. The part has no launch MSRP listed. Its slot width is listed as IGP, meaning it is not a removable card. The RTX 4070 Ti has a launch MSRP of 799 USD.

The data shows the RTX 4070 Ti as the only option for tasks requiring high compute throughput, dedicated memory bandwidth, or ray tracing performance. The Intel part's system shared memory and single ray tracing core limit its applicability to basic graphics workloads. The 50th percentile ranking for the Intel part, despite having no benchmark scores, suggests it is not positioned against discrete desktop GPUs.

Architecture Differences

The two GPUs come from different manufacturers and architectures. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti uses the AD104 chip with Ada Lovelace architecture, part of the GeForce 40 generation. It has 35,800 million transistors on a 294 mm² die, yielding a transistor density of 121.8 million per square millimeter. The Intel Arc Graphics 1 Xe Mobile uses the Wildcat Lake chip with Xe3-LPG architecture, part of the Arc Graphics-M (Wildcat Lake) generation. Its transistor count and die size are listed as unknown.

The manufacturing processes differ. NVIDIA uses TSMC's 5 nm node. Intel uses its own 3 nm node. The foundry for the Intel part is Intel, while NVIDIA uses TSMC.

Clock behavior also diverges. The RTX 4070 Ti has a base clock of 2310 MHz and a boost clock of 2610 MHz. Its memory clock is listed as 1313 MHz with 21 Gbps effective speed. The Intel part has a base clock of 300 MHz and a boost clock of 2300 MHz. Its memory clock is listed as system shared.

The RTX 4070 Ti's physical design reflects its desktop orientation. It is a dual-slot card measuring 285 mm in length, 112 mm in height, and 42 mm in width. It uses a 16-pin power connector. The Intel part is an IGP with no dimensions listed and no power connectors.

API support is identical on paper. Both parts support DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4. The RTX 4070 Ti offers display outputs of 1x HDMI 2.1 and 3x DisplayPort 1.4a. The Intel part's display outputs are listed as portable device dependent.

Production status separates the two. The RTX 4070 Ti is end-of-life, released in January 2023, with the GeForce 30 series as its predecessor and GeForce 50 as its successor. The Intel Arc Graphics 1 Xe Mobile is active, released in April 2026, with HD Graphics-M as its predecessor and no successor listed.

The RTX 4070 Ti uses a 1:1 FP16 ratio, meaning its FP16 and FP32 throughput are equal at 40.09 TFLOPS. The Intel part uses a 2:1 ratio, delivering 1,177.6 GFLOPS FP16 against 588.8 GFLOPS FP32. Tensor core support exists only on the NVIDIA card, with 240 tensor cores available. The Intel part lists no tensor cores. The NVIDIA card also carries 60 ray tracing cores versus 1 for the Intel part.

These architectural differences explain the performance gap. The NVIDIA card's dedicated memory subsystem, 7,680 shading units, and 240 TMUs provide the hardware resources needed for its recorded benchmark scores. The Intel part's integrated design, with 128 shading units and system shared memory, targets power-constrained mobile platforms rather than high-throughput desktop workloads.
