Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual vs NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The recorded data contains no direct head-to-head benchmark results between the Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090. The database lists no shared test scores for the two products, so a direct comparison of measured performance cannot be constructed from the available measurements. Instead, the analysis must rely on the RTX 5090's standalone benchmark results and the architectural specifications of both cards.

The RTX 5090 shows a benchmark profile that positions it strongly within the database. Its 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score is 18,355, while Geekbench OpenCL returns 334,370 and Geekbench Vulkan returns 376,728. Passmark results include a G3D score of 39,650, a GPU compute score of 26,756, and DirectX 9/10/11/12 scores of 395, 226, 341, and 185 respectively. The G2D score is 1,413. The average benchmark score across these tests is 79,842, placing the card in the 92nd percentile of all GPUs in the database.

The Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual has no benchmark entries in the database. Its percentile rank is 50, with an average benchmark score of 0, indicating that no measured performance data has been recorded for this card. This absence of data limits the ability to state exact performance deltas between the two products. The RTX 5090's nearest rivals in the database are the NVIDIA Tesla P100 PCIe 16 GB (average score 79,605, delta 0.3%), the NVIDIA Tesla P100 PCIe 12 GB (average score 79,396, delta 0.6%), the AMD Radeon RX 6850M XT (average score 78,940, delta 1.1%), and the AMD Radeon Pro Vega 64X (average score 80,959, delta -1.4%). These deltas are all within a narrow band, indicating that the RTX 5090 sits in a cluster of similarly scoring GPUs rather than far ahead of its nearest database neighbors.

Where Each One Wins

Based strictly on the recorded data, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 wins in every measurable category because it is the only product with benchmark results. The RTX 5090 delivers a 92nd percentile rank, an average benchmark score of 79,842, and a comprehensive set of DirectX, OpenCL, Vulkan, and compute scores. The Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual has no recorded benchmark scores, so no wins can be attributed to it from the database.

For the RTX 5090, the strongest relative position is in the Passmark DirectX 9 test with a score of 395, followed by DirectX 11 at 341 and DirectX 10 at 226. The DirectX 12 score of 185 is the lowest among the DirectX tests. The Geekbench Vulkan score of 376,728 exceeds the OpenCL score of 334,370 by a wide margin, indicating that Vulkan compute workloads score higher in the database than OpenCL workloads for this card.

The Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual does have a set of theoretical specifications that suggest intended positioning, but without benchmark data, the database cannot confirm any performance advantage. The card's shading units, texture mapping units, and render output units are all lower than the RTX 5090's, and its FP32 throughput is far lower. No measured test results exist to verify how these specifications translate into real-world performance.

Architecture Differences

The two cards are built on fundamentally different architectures. The Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual uses the BMG-G21 chip with Xe2-HPG architecture, belonging to the Battlemage (Pro Series) generation. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 uses the GB202 chip with Blackwell 2.0 architecture, belonging to the GeForce 50 generation. Both are fabricated on a 5 nm process at TSMC, but the transistor counts differ substantially. The Intel chip contains 19,600 million transistors on a 272 mm² die, yielding a transistor density of 72.1 million per mm². The NVIDIA chip contains 92,200 million transistors on a 750 mm² die, yielding a transistor density of 122.9 million per mm².

Memory configurations also diverge. The Intel card uses 24 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 192-bit bus, with a bandwidth of 456.0 GB/s and an effective memory clock of 19 Gbps. The NVIDIA card uses 32 GB of GDDR7 memory on a 512-bit bus, with a bandwidth of 1.79 TB/s and an effective memory clock of 28 Gbps. These differences indicate that the RTX 5090 has both more memory capacity and significantly higher bandwidth.

Compute resources are heavily skewed toward the NVIDIA card. The RTX 5090 has 21,760 shading units, 680 texture mapping units, 176 render output units, 170 ray tracing cores, and 680 tensor cores. The Intel card has 2,560 shading units, 160 texture mapping units, 80 render output units, and 20 ray tracing cores. The tensor core field for the Intel card is listed as null, meaning no tensor core count is recorded in the database. The RTX 5090's FP32 throughput is 104.8 TFLOPS, while the Intel card's is 12.29 TFLOPS. FP16 numbers also differ: the RTX 5090 achieves 104.8 TFLOPS at a 1:1 ratio, while the Intel card achieves 24.58 TFLOPS at a 2:1 ratio.

Clock speeds are relatively close. The Intel base clock is 2000 MHz with a boost of 2400 MHz, while the NVIDIA base clock is 2017 MHz with a boost of 2407 MHz. Pixel rate and texture rate follow the compute differences: the RTX 5090 reaches 423.6 GPixel/s and 1,636.8 GTexel/s, while the Intel card reaches 192.0 GPixel/s and 384.0 GTexel/s.

Power and physical specifications also differ. The Intel card has a TDP of 400 W with a suggested PSU of 800 W, while the NVIDIA card has a TDP of 575 W with a suggested PSU of 950 W. Both use a dual-slot design and a single 16-pin power connector. The bus interface differs: the Intel card uses PCIe 5.0 x8, while the NVIDIA card uses PCIe 5.0 x16. Display outputs differ as well: the Intel card has four mini-DisplayPort 2.1 outputs, while the NVIDIA card has one HDMI 2.1b and three DisplayPort 2.1b outputs.

The Verdict

The database contains benchmark results for the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 but none for the Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual. As a result, the RTX 5090 is the only card with recorded performance data, and it occupies the 92nd percentile of all GPUs with an average benchmark score of 79,842. The Intel card has no recorded scores and sits at the 50th percentile with an average of 0.

For users who require measured performance data, the RTX 5090 is the only option that the database can support. Its nearest rivals are all within a delta of 1.4%, indicating that its performance is comparable to other high-end GPUs in the database rather than exceptional. The Intel card offers a lower power draw (400 W vs 575 W) and a smaller die size (272 mm² vs 750 mm²), but these are specification differences, not performance advantages.

The RTX 5090 also has architectural advantages in shading units, texture units, render output units, ray tracing cores, tensor cores, memory capacity, memory bandwidth, and FP32 throughput. The Intel card has no tensor cores recorded, fewer of every compute resource, and lower memory bandwidth. Given the absence of benchmark data for the Intel card, the database cannot attribute any performance win to it. The RTX 5090 is the only card with a complete performance profile.
