Intel Arc Pro B60 vs NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano Super Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The direct comparative benchmark data between the Intel Arc Pro B60 and the NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano Super is unavailable in the database, with no recorded head-to-head tests. Consequently, the analysis relies on the Arc Pro B60's absolute benchmark scores and architectural specifications, while the Jetson Orin Nano Super presents no standardized graphics benchmarks in the database.

The Intel Arc Pro B60 records an average benchmark score of 3182 across all tests, placing it at the 20th percentile of all GPUs. Its individual results show substantial variance: the PassMark G3D score reaches 14580, while the PassMark DirectX 10 score is only 61. The DirectX 11 score of 122 and DirectX 12 score of 76 indicate that the card's performance scales significantly with the API generation, with the G2D score of 763 and GPU compute score of 7029 rounding out the picture. The 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 test returns 2646 points.

Comparing the Arc Pro B60 to its nearest database rivals, the data shows a tight cluster. The NVIDIA Quadro P1000 averages 3163, putting the Arc Pro B60 just 0.6% ahead. The GeForce GT 640 scores 3210, making the Arc Pro B60 0.9% slower. The GeForce 920M records 3287, a 3.2% gap in favor of the rival. The GeForce RTX 5080 SUPER averages 3075, with the Arc Pro B60 3.5% ahead. These margins are narrow, indicating that the Arc Pro B60's average score places it in a competitive band rather than a decisive leader.

The Jetson Orin Nano Super has no benchmark entries, so its average score is recorded as 0, and it holds a 50th percentile ranking by database classification. Without measured results, the numerical comparison cannot extend beyond the Arc Pro B60's standalone figures.

Architecture Differences

The two devices diverge fundamentally in their underlying design. The Intel Arc Pro B60 uses the BMG-G21 chip built on the Xe2-HPG architecture, part of the Battlemage Pro Series generation. It is fabricated by TSMC on a 5 nm process node, with 19,600 million transistors packed into a 272 mm² die, yielding a transistor density of 72.1 million per square millimeter. The NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano Super uses the GA10B chip based on the Ampere architecture, from the Tegra Ampere generation. Samsung produces it on an 8 nm node, with the die size listed at 200 mm² and transistor count marked as unknown.

Memory configurations differ sharply. The Arc Pro B60 carries 24 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 192-bit bus, delivering 456.0 GB/s of bandwidth at a memory clock of 2375 MHz, which translates to 19 Gbps effective. The Jetson Orin Nano Super has 8 GB of LPDDR5 on a 128-bit bus, with bandwidth of 102.4 GB/s and a memory clock of 800 MHz, or 6.4 Gbps effective. That is a 353.6 GB/s difference in raw bandwidth.

Compute resources also separate the two. The Arc Pro B60 has 2560 shading units, 160 texture mapping units, and 80 raster output units, plus 20 ray tracing cores and no tensor cores. The Jetson Orin Nano Super has 1024 shading units, 32 TMUs, and 16 ROPs, with no ray tracing cores but 32 tensor cores. Pixel rate for the Arc Pro B60 is 192.0 GPixel/s versus 16.32 GPixel/s for the Jetson, and texture rate is 384.0 GTexel/s versus 32.64 GTexel/s.

Floating-point throughput shows a large gap. The Arc Pro B60 delivers 12.29 TFLOPS FP32 and 24.58 TFLOPS FP16 at a 2:1 ratio. The Jetson Orin Nano Super delivers 2.089 TFLOPS FP32 and 4.178 TFLOPS FP16, also at 2:1. The Arc Pro B60 leads by 10.2 TFLOPS in FP32 and 20.4 TFLOPS in FP16. Clock speeds are only partially listed: the Arc Pro B60 runs at a 2000 MHz base and 2400 MHz boost, while the Jetson's base and boost clocks are not recorded.

Power and physical design differ as well. The Arc Pro B60 has a 200 W TDP, uses a dual-slot form factor, and requires a single 8-pin power connector plus a 550 W suggested PSU. The Jetson Orin Nano Super has a 25 W TDP, is an integrated graphics processor, requires no power connector, and has no suggested PSU. The Arc Pro B60 measures 167 mm in length, 69 mm in height, and 40 mm in width, while the Jetson measures 70 mm in length and 45 mm in height with width not listed. The Arc Pro B60 connects via PCIe 5.0 x8, the Jetson via PCIe 4.0 x4.

Both support identical API levels: DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4. Display outputs differ, with the Arc Pro B60 offering 4x mini-DisplayPort 2.1 and the Jetson relying on portable device dependent outputs.

The Verdict

The data separates these two devices into distinct categories. The Intel Arc Pro B60 is a discrete, high-throughput graphics card built for rendering workloads, evidenced by its 12.29 TFLOPS FP32, 456.0 GB/s bandwidth, and 24 GB of memory. Its average benchmark score of 3182, while only 20th percentile among all GPUs, places it within 3.5% of several NVIDIA desktop rivals, confirming measurable rendering capability in standard graphics tests.

The NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano Super is a low-power embedded processor. Its 25 W TDP, 2.089 TFLOPS FP32, and 102.4 GB/s bandwidth indicate a design focused on efficiency and compact integration rather than raw graphics throughput. The presence of 32 tensor cores suggests an orientation toward AI inference tasks, though no benchmark data in the database confirms its performance.

For users prioritizing discrete rendering power, memory capacity, and bandwidth, the Arc Pro B60 is the clear choice based on the recorded specifications. For users requiring a compact, low-power integrated solution with tensor acceleration, the Jetson Orin Nano Super fits that profile, though its graphics performance cannot be quantified from the database.

Where Each One Wins

The Intel Arc Pro B60 wins in every recorded rendering and compute metric. Its FP32 throughput is 5.9 times higher, its FP16 throughput is 5.9 times higher, its pixel rate is 11.8 times higher, and its texture rate is 11.8 times higher. Memory bandwidth is 4.5 times higher, and memory capacity is three times larger. It supports ray tracing hardware, offers a wider bus interface, and carries more shading units, TMUs, and ROPs. Its average benchmark score of 3182, while modest in percentile rank, provides measurable evidence of functional graphics performance.

The NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano Super wins in power efficiency and physical footprint. Its 25 W TDP is 175 W lower than the Arc Pro B60, and its 70 mm by 45 mm dimensions make it dramatically smaller than the 167 mm by 69 mm by 40 mm Arc Pro B60. It includes 32 tensor cores, which the Arc Pro B60 lacks, indicating specialized hardware for tensor operations. Its integrated design requires no power connector and no suggested PSU, simplifying deployment. Its 8 GB of LPDDR5 memory, while smaller, operates in a low-power context suitable for embedded use cases.

The data does not record any benchmark wins for either device in head-to-head testing, as no such tests exist. The allocation of wins follows directly from the specification differences: the Arc Pro B60 dominates graphics and compute workloads, while the Jetson Orin Nano Super dominates power-constrained and space-constrained scenarios.
