Intel Arc Pro B65 vs NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4010 Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The recorded data presents an unusual comparison. The Intel Arc Pro B65 has no benchmark entries in the database, while the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4010 has a single recorded score. This means the head-to-head comparison is fundamentally lopsided. The Intel card cannot be directly measured against the NVIDIA card using identical tests, as no common benchmark results exist for both products.

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4010 delivers a 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 2893. This places it in the 18th percentile of all GPUs in the database. Its nearest rivals in the database are tightly clustered: the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB scores 2907, which is 0.5% higher, the NVIDIA RTX PRO 4000 Blackwell SFF scores 2910 (0.6% higher), the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8 GB scores 2913 (0.7% higher), and the NVIDIA Quadro P600 scores 2923 (1% higher). The RTX 4010 sits at the bottom of this group, trailing each of these four cards by margins of less than one percent. The data indicates that the RTX 4010 is essentially within statistical noise of these rivals, all of which are separated by no more than a 30-point spread in their average scores.

For the Intel Arc Pro B65, the database records zero benchmark scores and an average benchmark score of zero. Its percentile versus all GPUs is 50, which is a neutral midpoint, but without any measured performance data, this percentile cannot be interpreted as a performance indicator. The wins count for both cards is zero. The head-to-head benchmark array is empty. The Intel card's performance cannot be validated or compared numerically, as no test results are recorded.

The FP32 compute figures provide the only quantitative performance distinction between the two. The Intel Arc Pro B65 delivers 12.29 TFLOPS of FP32 throughput, while the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4010 delivers 2.706 TFLOPS. This represents a 4.54 times advantage for the Intel card in raw single-precision compute. The texture rate follows a similar pattern: Intel records 384.0 GTexel/s versus NVIDIA's 42.29 GTexel/s, a 9.08 times difference. The pixel rate shows Intel at 192.0 GPixel/s against NVIDIA's 28.19 GPixel/s, a 6.81 times difference. These are theoretical peak rates, not measured application performance, but they indicate the Intel card has substantially higher shading, texturing, and rasterization throughput on paper.

Specification Differences

The two cards differ in every major specification category. The Intel Arc Pro B65 uses the BMG-G21 chip with Xe2-HPG architecture from the Battlemage (Pro Series) generation. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4010 uses the GA107 chip with Ampere architecture from the GeForce 40-series.

The process node differs: Intel uses 5 nm from TSMC, while NVIDIA uses 8 nm from Samsung. Transistor counts are 19,600 million for Intel versus 8,700 million for NVIDIA. Die sizes are 272 mm² versus 200 mm². Transistor densities are 72.1 million per mm² versus 43.5 million per mm².

Clock speeds differ substantially. The Intel card has a base clock of 2400 MHz and a boost clock of 2400 MHz. The NVIDIA card has a base clock of 1417 MHz and a boost clock of 1762 MHz. The Intel card has no game clock recorded, and neither card has one. Memory clocks are 2375 MHz (19 Gbps effective) for Intel versus 1500 MHz (12 Gbps effective) for NVIDIA.

The compute unit counts differ: 2560 shading units, 160 TMUs, 80 ROPs, and 20 RT cores for Intel versus 768 shading units, 24 TMUs, 16 ROPs, and 6 RT cores for NVIDIA. The Intel card has no tensor cores recorded, while the NVIDIA card has 24 tensor cores.

Memory specifications: 32 GB GDDR6 on a 256-bit bus with 608.0 GB/s bandwidth for Intel versus 4 GB GDDR6 on a 64-bit bus with 96.00 GB/s bandwidth for NVIDIA.

Power and physical specifications: 200 W TDP, dual-slot, one 8-pin connector, and 550 W suggested PSU for Intel versus 50 W TDP, single-slot, no power connectors, and 250 W suggested PSU for NVIDIA. The Intel card uses PCIe 5.0 x16, while the NVIDIA card uses PCIe 4.0 x8. Display outputs are 4x DisplayPort 2.1 for Intel versus 4x mini-DisplayPort 1.4a for NVIDIA.

Release dates differ: the Intel card released on 2026-03-31, while the NVIDIA card released on 2024-04-15. The NVIDIA card has a predecessor (GeForce 30) and successor (GeForce 50) recorded, while the Intel card has neither. Both cards share the same DirectX (12 Ultimate 12_2), OpenGL (4.6), and Vulkan (1.4) support.

Architecture Differences

The architecture divide is fundamental. The Intel Arc Pro B65 uses Xe2-HPG architecture built on the Battlemage (Pro Series) generation. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4010 uses Ampere architecture from the GeForce 40 generation, which is an unusual pairing since Ampere is typically associated with the GeForce 30 series, yet the database records it as GeForce 40.

The manufacturing approach differs completely. Intel uses a 5 nm process at TSMC, achieving 72.1 million transistors per mm². NVIDIA uses an 8 nm process at Samsung, achieving 43.5 million transistors per mm². The Intel chip packs 19,600 million transistors into a 272 mm² die, while the NVIDIA chip packs 8,700 million transistors into a 200 mm² die. The Intel die is 36% larger but holds 2.25 times more transistors.

The rendering pipelines diverge sharply. Intel allocates resources to 2560 shading units, 160 TMUs, and 80 ROPs. NVIDIA allocates resources to 768 shading units, 24 TMUs, and 16 ROPs. Intel has 20 RT cores dedicated to ray tracing, while NVIDIA has 6 RT cores. NVIDIA counters with 24 tensor cores, which Intel does not have at all. The FP16 throughput shows a different strategy: Intel achieves 24.58 TFLOPS with a 2:1 ratio to FP32, while NVIDIA achieves 2.706 TFLOPS with a 1:1 ratio. This means Intel has dedicated FP16 throughput, while NVIDIA processes FP16 at the same rate as FP32.

Memory architecture follows the same pattern. Intel deploys 32 GB of GDDR6 across a 256-bit bus, yielding 608.0 GB/s. NVIDIA uses 4 GB of GDDR6 across a 64-bit bus, yielding 96.00 GB/s. The Intel memory clock runs at 2375 MHz with 19 Gbps effective, while the NVIDIA memory clock runs at 1500 MHz with 12 Gbps effective.

The interface and output architecture also differ. Intel uses PCIe 5.0 x16, the current generation of the bus standard. NVIDIA uses PCIe 4.0 x8, which provides less bandwidth and fewer lanes. Intel outputs 4x DisplayPort 2.1, supporting the latest display standard. NVIDIA outputs 4x mini-DisplayPort 1.4a, using an older standard in a compact form factor.

The physical design reflects the power envelope. Intel requires a dual-slot cooler, one 8-pin power connector, and a 550 W power supply. NVIDIA operates as a single-slot card with no power connectors and a 250 W power supply. The NVIDIA card is recorded at 163 mm in length and 69 mm in height, while the Intel card has no dimensions recorded.

The Verdict

The data presents a clear split based on intended use. For workloads requiring high compute throughput, large memory capacity, and modern display outputs, the Intel Arc Pro B65 is the choice. Its 12.29 TFLOPS FP32 performance, 32 GB memory capacity, 608.0 GB/s bandwidth, and PCIe 5.0 x16 interface place it in a different performance class than the NVIDIA card. Its 20 RT cores and 160 TMUs suggest it is designed for rendering and content creation workloads. The 4x DisplayPort 2.1 outputs support high-resolution, high-refresh-rate displays.

For workloads requiring minimal power consumption, compact physical footprint, and low system requirements, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4010 is the choice. Its 50 W TDP, single-slot design, and lack of power connectors make it suitable for small form factor systems. Its 250 W suggested power supply means it can run in systems with modest PSUs. The recorded 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 2893 provides some measured performance data, although its 18th percentile ranking indicates it sits below most GPUs in the database.

The RTX 4010's nearest rivals in the database are all within 1% of its score, which indicates the card is positioned at the low end of a tightly grouped performance cluster. The Intel Arc Pro B65 has no measured benchmark data, so its actual application performance cannot be verified from the database. The theoretical peak rates suggest it will perform far better in compute-heavy tasks, but the absence of recorded results means users cannot confirm this from the database alone.

The specification gap is too wide for these cards to be considered competitors. The Intel card offers 4.54 times the FP32 throughput, 6.33 times the memory bandwidth, 8 times the memory capacity, and 3.33 times the shading units. The NVIDIA card offers one quarter of the power draw, no required power connector, and a measured benchmark score. The choice between them depends entirely on whether the priority is raw capability or minimal system impact. The data does not support a single recommended card for all scenarios; it supports a capability-focused choice in the Intel card and an efficiency-focused choice in the NVIDIA card.
