Analysis: Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual vs NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER
Head-to-Head Benchmarks
The database records no head-to-head benchmark entries for the Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual versus the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER. This absence is itself informative. The Intel card carries no benchmark scores in the record, while the NVIDIA card shows a substantial set of measured results. The RTX 4080 SUPER holds a percentile rank of 86 against all GPUs, while the Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual sits at the 50th percentile. That gap, from the 50th to the 86th percentile, indicates a wide performance chasm when measured against the broader GPU population.
The RTX 4080 SUPER delivers an average benchmark score of 54,209 across its recorded tests. Its nearest rivals in the database are the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 at 54,247, the AMD Radeon Pro W5700X at 54,828, the AMD Radeon RX 6750 GRE 12 GB at 55,698, and the AMD Radeon 8060S at 55,757. The delta percentages show the RTX 4080 SUPER trails its closest competitor, the RTX 4080, by a mere 0.1%. It also sits 1.1% behind the Radeon Pro W5700X, 2.7% behind the RX 6750 GRE 12 GB, and 2.8% behind the Radeon 8060S. These are narrow margins, all within roughly three percentage points, which suggests the RTX 4080 SUPER operates in a tightly contested performance band among high-end cards.
Individual benchmark results for the RTX 4080 SUPER reveal specific strengths. In Geekbench Vulkan, it scores 260,075, and in Geekbench OpenCL, it reaches 219,065. The PassMark G3D score stands at 34,245, while the PassMark GPU compute score is 19,822. Legacy DirectX tests show a score of 381 for DirectX 9, 301 for DirectX 11, 193 for DirectX 10, and 134 for DirectX 12. The 2D graphics test yields 1,270. These numbers paint a picture of a card that excels in modern compute workloads, with Vulkan and OpenCL results far exceeding the legacy rasterization scores.
The Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual, by contrast, has no recorded benchmark scores, no average score, and no nearest rivals listed. The database shows zero wins for either side in head-to-head testing, which is consistent with the empty headToHeadBenchmarks array. Without measured data, the Intel card's performance can only be inferred from its architectural specifications, not from direct comparison results.
Where Each One Wins
The RTX 4080 SUPER wins in every recorded benchmark category because it is the only card with recorded benchmarks. Its compute-oriented tests show the largest margins. The Geekbench Vulkan score of 260,075 more than doubles the Geekbench OpenCL score of 219,065, and both dwarf the PassMark 3D results. This pattern indicates the NVIDIA card handles Vulkan and OpenCL workloads with particular efficiency, likely due to its compute resources.
The PassMark DirectX tests show a different hierarchy. DirectX 9 scores highest at 381, followed by DirectX 11 at 301, DirectX 10 at 193, and DirectX 12 at 134. The lower DirectX 12 score relative to older API versions is a notable inversion. It suggests the card's raw throughput in modern API paths may not translate to proportional gains in these specific legacy test conditions, or that the test methodology weights older paths differently.
For the Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual, the wins must be assessed from specification alone. It offers 24 GB of GDDR6 memory, which exceeds the RTX 4080 SUPER's 16 GB of GDDR6X. Memory bandwidth tells a different story: the NVIDIA card delivers 736.3 GB/s versus the Intel card's 456.0 GB/s. The Intel card also features four mini-DisplayPort 2.1 outputs, while the RTX 4080 SUPER provides one HDMI 2.1 and three DisplayPort 1.4a ports. For display connectivity and memory capacity, the Intel card has a structural advantage, though no benchmark confirms its practical impact.
Architecture Differences
The two cards come from different architectural lineages. The Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual uses the BMG-G21 chip based on Xe2-HPG architecture, part of the Battlemage Pro Series generation. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER uses the AD103 chip based on Ada Lovelace architecture, part of the GeForce 40-series. Both are built on a 5 nm process at TSMC, but the transistor counts diverge sharply. The Intel chip packs 19,600 million transistors on a 272 mm² die, yielding a density of 72.1 million transistors per square millimeter. The NVIDIA chip holds 45,900 million transistors on a 379 mm² die, with a density of 121.1 million per square millimeter. The NVIDIA die is larger and far denser, which correlates with its higher compute throughput.
Clock speeds favor the NVIDIA card. The RTX 4080 SUPER runs at a base of 2295 MHz and boosts to 2550 MHz. The Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual operates at 2000 MHz base and 2400 MHz boost. Memory clocks also differ: the NVIDIA card uses 1438 MHz with 23 Gbps effective, while the Intel card runs at 2375 MHz with 19 Gbps effective. Despite the higher base memory clock on the Intel side, the NVIDIA card achieves higher effective bandwidth due to its wider 256-bit bus versus the Intel card's 192-bit bus.
Shader resources are heavily skewed. The RTX 4080 SUPER has 10,240 shading units, 320 texture mapping units, 112 raster output units, 80 ray tracing cores, and 320 tensor cores. The Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual has 2,560 shading units, 160 TMUs, 80 ROPs, and 20 ray tracing cores, with no tensor core count listed. The pixel rate for the NVIDIA card is 285.6 GPixel/s, and its texture rate is 816.0 GTexel/s. The Intel card delivers 192.0 GPixel/s and 384.0 GTexel/s. Floating-point performance shows the largest gap: the RTX 4080 SUPER reaches 52.22 TFLOPS for both FP32 and FP16 with a 1:1 ratio, while the Intel card manages 12.29 TFLOPS FP32 and 24.58 TFLOPS FP16 with a 2:1 ratio.
Power and physical design also differ. The RTX 4080 SUPER has a 320 W TDP, a triple-slot width, and a suggested power supply of 700 W. The Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual has a 400 W TDP, a dual-slot width, and a suggested power supply of 800 W. The Intel card is shorter at 300 mm length, 110 mm height, and 40 mm width, versus the NVIDIA card at 310 mm length, 140 mm height, and 61 mm width. The bus interface differs as well: the Intel card uses PCIe 5.0 x8, while the NVIDIA card uses PCIe 4.0 x16. Both support DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4.
The Verdict
The data clearly favors the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER for compute performance. Its average benchmark score of 54,209, its 86th percentile rank, and its specific results in Vulkan and OpenCL place it far above the Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual, which has no recorded scores and sits at the 50th percentile. The RTX 4080 SUPER's FP32 throughput of 52.22 TFLOPS is more than four times the Intel card's 12.29 TFLOPS. Its memory bandwidth of 736.3 GB/s is roughly 61% higher than the Intel card's 456.0 GB/s. The NVIDIA card also holds advantages in shading units, texture units, ROPs, ray tracing cores, and pixel/texture rates.
The Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual offers 24 GB of memory versus 16 GB, and it uses newer display outputs with four mini-DisplayPort 2.1 connectors. It also has a lower TDP at 400 W versus 320 W, though the Intel card actually requires a larger suggested power supply at 800 W versus 700 W. The Intel card supports PCIe 5.0 x8, which is a newer bus generation, but the NVIDIA card uses a wider x16 interface on PCIe 4.0.
For users prioritizing measured performance, the RTX 4080 SUPER is the only option with evidence in the database. Its nearest rivals are all within 2.8% of its average score, so it competes at the top tier. The Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual, without any benchmark data, cannot be positioned relative to those rivals. Its architectural specs indicate a mid-range compute profile, consistent with its 50th percentile rank.
