Intel Data Center GPU Max 1100 vs Intel Graphics 24EU Mobile Comparison

Intel Data Center GPU Max 1100 and Intel Graphics 24EU Mobile occupy opposite ends of Intel’s graphics spectrum. The database records no direct head-to-head benchmark scores for these two, so the comparison relies on their recorded specifications and derived performance metrics. Both share the same 50th percentile ranking against all GPUs, but their architectural and physical characteristics diverge sharply.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The database contains no benchmark entries for either part, meaning direct performance comparisons cannot be drawn from recorded scores. Instead, the compute throughput figures provide the clearest measurable gap. The Data Center GPU Max 1100 delivers 22.22 TFLOPS of FP32 performance, while the Graphics 24EU Mobile reaches 384.0 GFLOPS. This translates to a 57.8 times advantage for the data center part, a figure derived from the 22.22 TFLOPS versus 384.0 GFLOPS ratio.

Texture rate follows a similar pattern. The Max 1100 processes 694.4 GTexel/s, compared to 12.00 GTexel/s for the mobile part. That is a 57.9 times difference, nearly identical to the FP32 gap. Pixel rate tells a different story: the Max 1100 records 0 MPixel/s, while the Graphics 24EU Mobile achieves 4.000 GPixel/s. This is the only measured metric where the mobile chip wins outright, because the data center card has no ROP units, as shown by its 0 ROP count.

FP16 performance shows a narrower relative gap. The Max 1100 sustains 22.22 TFLOPS in FP16 with a 1:1 ratio to FP32. The Graphics 24EU Mobile doubles its FP32 rate to 768.0 GFLOPS in FP16, using a 2:1 ratio. The data center part still leads by 28.9 times, but the mobile chip’s FP16 scaling is proportionally more aggressive.

The memory subsystem amplifies these differences. The Max 1100 accesses 48 GB of HBM2e memory across a 8192 bit bus, yielding 1.23 TB/s of bandwidth. The Graphics 24EU Mobile relies on System Shared memory, with bandwidth listed as System Dependent. No comparable bandwidth figure exists for the mobile part, so a direct ratio cannot be calculated, but the architectural disparity is evident.

Clock speeds further separate the two. The Max 1100 runs at a 1000 MHz base and 1550 MHz boost. The Graphics 24EU Mobile operates at 300 MHz base and 1000 MHz boost. The data center card’s boost clock is 55% higher, and its base clock is over three times higher. Memory clocks differ entirely: the Max 1100 uses a 600 MHz memory clock with 1200 Mbps effective, while the mobile part has no dedicated memory clock.

Architecture Differences

The Max 1100 uses the Ponte Vecchio chip, built on Intel’s Generation 12.5 architecture. It is manufactured on a 10 nm process at Intel’s own foundry. The die measures 1280 mm² and contains 100,000 million transistors, giving a transistor density of 78.1M per mm². This is a massive, compute-oriented design with 7168 shading units, 448 texture mapping units, and 56 ray tracing cores. It has no ROP units, which explains its 0 MPixel/s pixel rate.

The Graphics 24EU Mobile uses the Twin Lake chip, based on Xe-LP architecture. It also uses a 10 nm process and Intel foundry, but its transistor count and die size are recorded as unknown. The mobile part has 192 shading units, 12 TMUs, and 4 ROPs. It has no ray tracing cores. Its pixel rate of 4.000 GPixel/s comes from those 4 ROPs operating at the boost clock.

The Max 1100 is a dual-slot expansion card with a 267 mm length (10.5 inches), using a PCIe 5.0 x16 interface. It draws 300 W of power through a single 12-pin connector, with a suggested PSU rating of 700 W. It has no display outputs, indicating a pure compute accelerator role. The Graphics 24EU Mobile is an integrated graphics processor (IGP) with a Ring Bus interface. Its power draw is 6 W, and it has no dedicated power connectors or PSU requirement. Display outputs are listed as Portable Device Dependent, meaning the mobile chip can drive displays depending on the host system.

API support shows partial overlap. Both support DirectX 12 (12_1) and OpenGL 4.6. The Graphics 24EU Mobile adds Vulkan 1.4, while the Max 1100 records no Vulkan version. This suggests the data center card prioritizes compute APIs over graphics rendering, consistent with its lack of display outputs.

Where Each One Wins

The Intel Data Center GPU Max 1100 wins decisively in compute throughput, memory capacity, and bandwidth. Its 22.22 TFLOPS FP32 and FP16 rates, 694.4 GTexel/s texture rate, and 1.23 TB/s memory bandwidth make it suitable for data center workloads such as large-scale parallel processing, scientific simulations, and AI inference. The 48 GB HBM2e memory with an 8192 bit bus provides a massive data path for memory-bound tasks. Its 56 ray tracing cores add hardware acceleration for ray tracing workloads, though it has no display outputs, indicating a server-oriented role.

The Intel Graphics 24EU Mobile wins in pixel rate, power efficiency, and display connectivity. Its 4.000 GPixel/s pixel rate, derived from 4 ROPs, enables basic raster graphics output. The 6 W TDP makes it suitable for ultra-low-power portable devices. Its Portable Device Dependent display outputs and Vulkan 1.4 support indicate a graphics rendering role for consumer or embedded systems. The System Shared memory architecture reduces cost and complexity by reusing system RAM, and the Ring Bus interface integrates directly into the host processor.

The mobile part’s FP16 performance of 768.0 GFLOPS, while far below the data center card, shows a 2:1 ratio to FP32, suggesting efficient half-precision processing for its class. The Max 1100’s 1:1 FP16 ratio prioritizes consistency across precisions, but its absolute performance dwarfs the mobile chip in every compute metric except pixel rate.

The Verdict

The recorded data indicates two fundamentally different products with no overlap in intended use. The Intel Data Center GPU Max 1100 is a compute accelerator built for throughput, evidenced by its 7168 shading units, 448 TMUs, 56 ray tracing cores, 48 GB HBM2e memory, and PCIe 5.0 x16 interface. Its 300 W TDP, dual-slot form factor, and lack of display outputs confirm a server data center role. The 2023 release date and successor H3C Graphics show an active product lifecycle.

The Intel Graphics 24EU Mobile is an integrated GPU for portable devices, with 192 shading units, 12 TMUs, 4 ROPs, and a 6 W TDP. Its Ring Bus interface, System Shared memory, and Portable Device Dependent outputs place it in low-power mobile or embedded systems. The 2024 release date and Vulkan 1.4 support indicate modern API compatibility for its segment.

The database assigns both a 50th percentile ranking against all GPUs, but this equality masks the extreme divergence in raw specifications. The Max 1100 is 57.8 times faster in FP32 and 57.9 times faster in texture rate, while the mobile part is the only one with a nonzero pixel rate. Neither part has recorded benchmark scores, so the percentile ranking reflects specification-based classification rather than measured performance.

Buyers or system integrators choosing between these parts would select based on workload, not performance parity. The Max 1100 suits compute-heavy data center tasks where 300 W power draw and dual-slot space are acceptable. The Graphics 24EU Mobile suits battery-powered devices requiring display output and minimal power consumption. The data shows no middle ground: one is a high-throughput accelerator, the other a low-power graphics core. Each wins only in its intended domain, and the specification differences fully explain their separate positions in Intel’s product lineup.
