Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual vs NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Mobile Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Mobile occupy different segments, and the recorded benchmark data shows no direct head-to-head results between the two. However, the RTX 4060 Mobile has nine individual benchmark scores in the database, while the Arc Pro B60 Dual has none. This absence of comparable measurements means the performance relationship must be inferred from the RTX 4060 Mobile's standing against its nearest rivals and the architectural specifications of both parts.

The RTX 4060 Mobile delivers an average benchmark score of 22,729 across its nine tests. Its percentile rank of 67 places it above 67 percent of all GPUs in the database. The nearest rivals bracket its performance tightly. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 sits 0.7 percent behind with an average score of 22,895, while the AMD Radeon RX 7700 XT sits 0.8 percent behind at 22,549. The Intel Arc B580 leads the RTX 4060 Mobile by 1.3 percent with 23,021, and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Mobile trails by 1.3 percent at 22,435. This cluster of results indicates the RTX 4060 Mobile performs within a narrow band of roughly one percent of all four rivals, making it a consistent mid-range performer rather than an outlier in either direction.

The individual test scores for the RTX 4060 Mobile show a wide spread across workloads. In Geekbench OpenCL it scores 89,420, and in Geekbench Vulkan it scores 89,569. These two results are nearly identical, suggesting balanced compute performance across both APIs. The PassMark suite tells a different story. The DirectX 9 score of 216 is the highest among the DirectX tests, followed by DirectX 11 at 157, DirectX 10 at 107, and DirectX 12 at 73. This descending pattern suggests the architecture handles legacy APIs better than modern ones, or that driver optimization favors older workloads. The PassMark G3D score of 17,469 and G2D score of 730 further characterize the GPU as a capable gaming and desktop part. The GPU compute score of 6,816 confirms the OpenCL and Vulkan results: compute throughput is solid but not exceptional for this class.

Architecture Differences

The two GPUs diverge fundamentally in their architectural designs. The Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual uses the BMG-G21 chip built on the Xe2-HPG architecture, part of the Battlemage Pro Series generation. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Mobile uses the AD107 chip on the Ada Lovelace architecture, part of the GeForce 40 Mobile generation. Both are fabricated by TSMC on a 5 nm process, but the transistor counts and die sizes differ meaningfully. The Intel chip packs 19,600 million transistors into a 272 mm² die, yielding a transistor density of 72.1 million per mm². The NVIDIA chip contains 18,900 million transistors on a 159 mm² die, achieving a much higher density of 118.9 million per mm². The smaller NVIDIA die with nearly the same transistor count indicates a more compact, densely packed design.

Memory configurations diverge sharply. The Arc Pro B60 Dual carries 24 GB of GDDR6 on a 192-bit bus, delivering 456.0 GB/s of bandwidth. The RTX 4060 Mobile carries 8 GB of GDDR6 on a 128-bit bus, delivering 256.0 GB/s. The Intel part offers three times the capacity and 78 percent more bandwidth. Memory clocks also differ: the Arc Pro runs at 2375 MHz with 19 Gbps effective, while the RTX 4060 Mobile runs at 2000 MHz with 16 Gbps effective.

The compute resources are structured differently. The Arc Pro B60 Dual has 2,560 shading units, 160 texture mapping units, 80 raster operation units, and 20 ray tracing cores. The RTX 4060 Mobile has 3,072 shading units, 96 TMUs, 48 ROPs, 24 RT cores, and 96 tensor cores. The NVIDIA part has more shaders and RT cores, plus dedicated tensor cores that the Intel part lacks entirely. The Intel part counters with more TMUs and ROPs. Clock speeds favor Intel: the Arc Pro B60 Dual runs at 2000 MHz base and 2400 MHz boost, while the RTX 4060 Mobile runs at 1545 MHz base and 1890 MHz boost. Despite the NVIDIA part having more shaders, the Intel part achieves higher FP32 throughput at 12.29 TFLOPS versus 11.61 TFLOPS. FP16 performance differs dramatically: the Arc Pro delivers 24.58 TFLOPS with a 2:1 ratio, while the RTX 4060 Mobile delivers 11.61 TFLOPS with a 1:1 ratio, meaning the Intel GPU processes half-precision workloads twice as fast as its FP32 rate, while NVIDIA processes them at the same rate.

Pixel and texture rates reflect the ROP and TMU counts. The Arc Pro B60 Dual achieves 192.0 GPixel/s and 384.0 GTexel/s. The RTX 4060 Mobile achieves 90.72 GPixel/s and 181.4 GTexel/s. The Intel part doubles the NVIDIA part in both metrics. Power consumption is a major separator: the Arc Pro B60 Dual has a 400 W TDP and requires an 800 W suggested PSU with a single 16-pin connector, while the RTX 4060 Mobile has a 115 W TDP and uses no power connectors, being an integrated graphics package for laptops.

The interface and display capabilities also differ. The Arc Pro B60 Dual uses PCIe 5.0 x8 and outputs four mini-DisplayPort 2.1 connections. The RTX 4060 Mobile uses PCIe 4.0 x8 and has display outputs described as portable device dependent. The physical form factors reflect their intended environments: the Arc Pro is a dual-slot card measuring 300 mm by 110 mm by 40 mm, while the RTX 4060 Mobile has no listed dimensions and is designated as an IGP.

The Verdict

The benchmark data supports a clear segmentation. The RTX 4060 Mobile is a proven, widely measured GPU with a 67th percentile ranking and an average benchmark score of 22,729. Its nearest rivals all land within 1.3 percent, confirming consistent mid-range performance. The Arc Pro B60 Dual has no benchmark scores in the database, so its performance cannot be directly confirmed from measurements.

For users prioritizing compute density and memory capacity, the Arc Pro B60 Dual offers clear specification advantages: 24 GB versus 8 GB of memory, 456.0 GB/s versus 256.0 GB/s of bandwidth, and double the pixel and texture rates. Its 400 W TDP and dual-slot design indicate a desktop workstation card built for sustained throughput. The RTX 4060 Mobile, with its 115 W TDP and IGP form factor, targets portable systems where power efficiency and compact integration matter more than raw throughput.

The architectural data indicates the Intel part is the stronger compute performer in FP32 and FP16, while the NVIDIA part includes tensor cores for AI workloads and more shading units. The RTX 4060 Mobile is the safer choice based on measured data, while the Arc Pro B60 Dual is the specification leader in memory and rasterization throughput, pending actual benchmark results.
