Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual vs NVIDIA H800 SXM5 Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The benchmark database contains no recorded head-to-head comparisons between the Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual and the NVIDIA H800 SXM5. Both GPUs have an empty benchmark result set, an average benchmark score of zero, and a percentile ranking of 50 against all GPUs in the database. This means the two products cannot be ranked against each other using measured performance data. The Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual and the NVIDIA H800 SXM5 occupy entirely different market segments, which is reflected in their architectural and specification profiles. Without benchmark scores, the analysis must rely on the recorded hardware characteristics to establish relative capability.

The absence of benchmark data does not imply equivalence. The H800 SXM5 targets server compute workloads, while the Arc Pro B60 Dual is a professional graphics card for workstations. The database shows zero wins for either product in the head-to-head category, so no direct performance conclusions can be drawn from test results. The specification sheets, however, reveal substantial differences in compute throughput, memory capacity, and interface design, which provide a basis for qualitative comparison.

Architecture Differences

The Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual is built on the Xe2-HPG architecture using the BMG-G21 chip, part of the Battlemage (Pro Series) generation. It is fabricated on a 5 nm process at TSMC, with 19,600 million transistors on a 272 mm² die, resulting in a transistor density of 72.1M per mm². The architecture supports DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4, making it a full-featured graphics solution for professional rendering and compute tasks.

The NVIDIA H800 SXM5 uses the Hopper architecture with the GH100 chip, belonging to the Server Hopper (Hxx) generation. It is also fabricated on a 5 nm TSMC process, but with 80,000 million transistors on an 814 mm² die, giving a transistor density of 98.3M per mm². The Hopper design is server-focused and omits display outputs entirely. It has 528 tensor cores, which are absent from the Arc Pro B60 Dual specification list, and its API support fields for DirectX, OpenGL, and Vulkan are null, indicating the card is not intended for consumer graphics APIs.

The H800 SXM5 uses HBM3 memory with a 5120-bit interface, whereas the Arc Pro B60 Dual uses GDDR6 on a 192-bit bus. The H800 SXM5 has no listed RT cores, while the Arc Pro B60 Dual includes 20 RT cores. The two GPUs also differ in form factor: the Arc Pro B60 Dual is a dual-slot PCIe card, while the H800 SXM5 is an SXM module, a board-mount form factor for server chassis.
