Intel Arc Graphics 112EU Mobile vs NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 SUPER Comparison

The Verdict

The data presents two entirely different products. The Intel Arc Graphics 112EU Mobile is an integrated graphics processor (IGP) built into the Meteor Lake mobile platform, designed for portable devices where power efficiency and space are paramount. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 SUPER is a discrete, dual-slot desktop graphics card with a 415 W TDP, a 304 mm length, and a 1x 16-pin power connector, built for maximum performance in a high-end desktop system. The RTX 5080 SUPER is the clear choice for any workload requiring substantial rendering power, while the Intel part is for lightweight, integrated use cases. The benchmark data shows the RTX 5080 SUPER scores 3075 in 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12, while the Intel Arc Graphics 112EU Mobile has no recorded benchmark scores in the database, and its percentile rank of 50 places it in the middle of all GPUs, a stark contrast to the RTX 5080 SUPER's percentile rank of 19, which indicates it beats a large majority of other GPUs in the database. The RTX 5080 SUPER is the only option for high-end gaming and professional 3D workloads, whereas the Intel IGP serves basic graphical tasks in a mobile form factor. The launch MSRP for the RTX 5080 SUPER is 999 USD. The Intel IGP, with its system-shared memory and low power draw, is strictly for integrated use, not for performance-critical applications. The choice is dictated by the application: the RTX 5080 SUPER for dedicated, high-throughput rendering, and the Intel Arc Graphics 112EU Mobile for integrated, low-power mobile computing.

Architecture Differences

The two GPUs come from different architectural lineages and manufacturing processes. The Intel Arc Graphics 112EU Mobile uses the Xe-LPG architecture, built on a 10 nm process at Intel's foundry, and is part of the Arc Graphics-M (Meteor Lake) generation. It features 896 shading units, 56 texture mapping units, and 24 raster operation pipelines. The chip is designated as Meteor Lake. In contrast, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 SUPER is built on the Blackwell 2.0 architecture, fabricated on a 5 nm process by TSMC. It uses the GB203 chip, which contains 45,600 million transistors on a 378 mm² die, resulting in a transistor density of 120.6M per mm². The NVIDIA GPU has 10,752 shading units, 336 TMUs, 112 ROPs, 84 RT cores, and 336 tensor cores. The Intel GPU does not list RT cores or tensor cores in the database, indicating a lack of dedicated hardware for ray tracing and AI acceleration compared to the NVIDIA card. The Intel GPU's FP32 performance is 3.942 TFLOPS, while its FP16 performance is 7.885 TFLOPS (2:1 ratio). The NVIDIA GPU delivers 56.28 TFLOPS for both FP32 and FP16 (1:1 ratio), showing a massive difference in raw compute throughput. The pixel rate for the Intel GPU is 52.80 GPixel/s and the texture rate is 123.2 GTexel/s, whereas the NVIDIA GPU achieves 293.1 GPixel/s and 879.3 GTexel/s, respectively. The Intel GPU uses a Ring Bus interface, while the NVIDIA GPU uses PCIe 5.0 x16. The Intel GPU's DirectX support is 12 (12_1), while the NVIDIA GPU supports DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2). Both support OpenGL 4.6 and Vulkan 1.4. The Intel part is an IGP with a slot width of IGP, whereas the NVIDIA part is dual-slot. The production status for both is listed as Active. The NVIDIA GPU's release date is 2025-12-31, while the Intel GPU's release date is 2023-12-13.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The database contains no direct head-to-head benchmark comparisons between the Intel Arc Graphics 112EU Mobile and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 SUPER. The only benchmark score recorded for the RTX 5080 SUPER is from 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12, where it achieved a score of 3075. This score, when compared to its nearest rivals in the database, shows the following: it is 2.8% behind the NVIDIA Quadro P1000 (which has an average score of 3163), 3.4% behind the Intel Arc Pro B60 (average score 3182), 3.1% ahead of the NVIDIA GeForce 820A (average score 2983), and 3.6% ahead of the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 860M (average score 2967). The Intel Arc Graphics 112EU Mobile has no benchmark scores recorded in the database, so no quantitative comparison is possible. The data confirms the RTX 5080 SUPER sits in a performance band where it trades places with older professional and mobile GPUs, but it is important to note that these rival scores are averages, and the delta percentages are small. The RTX 5080 SUPER's average benchmark score is 3075, matching its single recorded result. The Intel GPU's average benchmark score is 0, and it has no nearest rivals listed. The lack of data for the Intel part means that the performance gap, while clearly implied by the architecture and specifications, cannot be expressed with benchmark numbers from the database. The RTX 5080 SUPER delivers 56.28 TFLOPS of FP32 compute versus the Intel part's 3.942 TFLOPS, a factor of over 14 times, but this is a specification comparison, not a benchmark result. The texture rate difference is also stark: 879.3 GTexel/s versus 123.2 GTexel/s. The pixel rate difference is 293.1 GPixel/s versus 52.80 GPixel/s. These specification gaps align with the expected performance difference, but the benchmark section of the database remains empty for the direct comparison.
