Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual vs NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Comparison

The Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 occupy distinct positions in the database, with the RTX 4060 carrying a percentile rank of 61 against all GPUs and an average benchmark score of 17,639. The Arc Pro B60 Dual, however, holds a percentile rank of 50 and an average benchmark score of 0, indicating that no recorded benchmark scores exist for it in the database. This absence of direct measurement data means the comparison relies entirely on architectural and specification differences rather than head-to-head test results.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The database contains no head-to-head benchmark entries for these two cards. The RTX 4060 has ten recorded test scores, while the Arc Pro B60 Dual has none. For the RTX 4060, the highest recorded score is 95,057 in Geekbench OpenCL, followed by 48,643 in Geekbench Vulkan. Its Passmark G3D score is 19,545, and its Passmark GPU Compute score is 9,213. The RTX 4060 also shows scores of 236 in Passmark DirectX 9, 175 in DirectX 11, 103 in DirectX 10, and 76 in DirectX 12, with a Passmark G2D score of 1,037. The 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 test returns 2,302.

The RTX 4060 sits within 0.7% of its nearest rivals in average score. The AMD Radeon HD 7790 leads with an average score of 17,666, a delta of -0.2% relative to the RTX 4060. The AMD Radeon 780M follows at 17,588, a delta of 0.3%. The AMD Radeon Pro 560 scores 17,551, a delta of 0.5%, and the AMD Radeon Pro 460 scores 17,509, a delta of 0.7%. These tight margins indicate the RTX 4060 is positioned in a cluster of similarly performing GPUs, with no single rival more than a fraction of a percent ahead or behind.

Without benchmark data for the Arc Pro B60 Dual, the comparison shifts to theoretical throughput figures. In FP32 compute, the RTX 4060 delivers 15.11 TFLOPS, while the Arc Pro B60 Dual delivers 12.29 TFLOPS, a gap of roughly 2.82 TFLOPS in favor of NVIDIA. In FP16, the Arc Pro B60 Dual reaches 24.58 TFLOPS using a 2:1 ratio, while the RTX 4060 achieves 15.11 TFLOPS with a 1:1 ratio. The Intel card therefore doubles its FP32 rate in FP16 workloads, whereas the NVIDIA card does not scale.

The pixel rate favors Intel at 192.0 GPixel/s versus 118.1 GPixel/s for NVIDIA. The texture rate also favors Intel at 384.0 GTexel/s versus 236.2 GTexel/s. These figures suggest the Arc Pro B60 Dual is built for higher fill-rate operations, while the RTX 4060 leans on its higher shading unit count of 3,072 versus 2,560 for Intel.

Where Each One Wins

The RTX 4060 wins in raw FP32 compute throughput. With 15.11 TFLOPS, it outperforms the Arc Pro B60 Dual's 12.29 TFLOPS by a meaningful margin. This positions the NVIDIA card for general-purpose shader workloads that rely on single-precision floating-point math. Its 24 RT cores also exceed Intel's 20, and its 96 tensor cores provide dedicated AI acceleration hardware, a feature entirely absent from the Intel card's specification list.

The Arc Pro B60 Dual wins in memory capacity and bandwidth. It carries 24 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 192-bit bus, yielding 456.0 GB/s of bandwidth. The RTX 4060 has 8 GB on a 128-bit bus, delivering 272.0 GB/s. That is a 184.0 GB/s advantage for Intel, which matters for large datasets or high-resolution textures. The Intel card also doubles the texture rate and posts a 73.9 GPixel/s higher pixel rate, making it stronger for fill-rate-bound scenarios.

The Arc Pro B60 Dual also leads in memory clock speed at 2375 MHz (19 Gbps effective), compared to the RTX 4060's 2125 MHz (17 Gbps effective). The Intel card uses a PCIe 5.0 x8 interface, while the RTX 4060 uses PCIe 4.0 x8. Display outputs differ as well: Intel offers four mini-DisplayPort 2.1 connectors, while NVIDIA offers one HDMI 2.1 and three DisplayPort 1.4a connectors. For multi-monitor professional setups, the Intel card's four mini-DisplayPort outputs may be more suitable.

Power consumption diverges sharply. The Arc Pro B60 Dual has a TDP of 400 W and requires an 800 W suggested PSU with a 1x 16-pin connector. The RTX 4060 has a TDP of 115 W, a suggested PSU of 300 W, and a 1x 12-pin connector. The RTX 4060 is end-of-life per the database, while the Arc Pro B60 Dual is active, with a release date of September 4, 2025, versus May 17, 2023, for NVIDIA.

The Verdict

The database shows two cards aimed at different workloads. The RTX 4060 delivers higher FP32 throughput, more RT cores, and tensor cores, with a lower power draw and a smaller die. Its average benchmark score of 17,639 places it in the 61st percentile, and its nearest rivals confirm it sits in a competitive mid-range segment. The Arc Pro B60 Dual offers 24 GB of memory, higher bandwidth, higher fill rates, and a PCIe 5.0 interface, but no recorded benchmark scores and a much higher power requirement.

For users prioritizing compute performance in FP32, ray tracing hardware, or AI acceleration, the RTX 4060 is the clear choice from the recorded data. For workloads that demand large memory pools, high bandwidth, or high pixel and texture rates, the Arc Pro B60 Dual presents the stronger specification sheet. The absence of benchmarks for the Intel card means its real-world performance cannot be verified from the database, whereas the RTX 4060 has ten recorded scores across multiple test suites.

The launch MSRP for the Arc Pro B60 Dual is 1,199 USD. The launch MSRP for the RTX 4060 is 299 USD. Both cards are dual-slot designs with identical 40 mm width and nearly identical height (110 mm for Intel, 111 mm for NVIDIA). The Intel card is longer at 300 mm versus 240 mm for NVIDIA.
