Intel Graphics 24EU Mobile vs NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 GDDR6 Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The recorded database contains a single benchmark entry for the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 GDDR6, the 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 test, where it scores 4334.5 points. The Intel Graphics 24EU Mobile has no benchmark entries in the database, so direct numerical comparison between the two parts is limited to the data that exists for the RTX 4070 GDDR6.

The RTX 4070 GDDR6's score of 4334.5 places it at the 25th percentile among all GPUs in the database. This percentile position indicates that roughly three-quarters of recorded GPUs score higher in this specific workload, which is notable given the part's specifications. The nearest rivals in the database provide context: the Intel Iris Pro Graphics 5200 scores 4360, which is 0.6% higher than the RTX 4070 GDDR6's 4334.5, while the AMD FirePro W2100 scores 4295, which is 0.9% lower. The NVIDIA GeForce 930M scores 4388, 1.2% higher, and the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460M scores 4282, 1.2% lower.

These delta values are all within a tight band of roughly 1.2% above or below the RTX 4070 GDDR6's score. The data shows that in this particular DX12 benchmark, the RTX 4070 GDDR6 performs nearly identically to integrated graphics from several generations ago and low-end mobile discrete parts. The Intel Graphics 24EU Mobile has no recorded scores, meaning the database cannot establish a head-to-head delta between the two products in any test.

The wins tally shows zero wins for the Intel Graphics 24EU Mobile and zero wins for the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 GDDR6, reflecting the absence of paired benchmark results. Without direct comparison data, any numerical advantage between these two parts must be inferred from their architectural specifications rather than measured performance.

Architecture Differences

The two GPUs come from fundamentally different segments and design philosophies. The Intel Graphics 24EU Mobile uses the Xe-LP architecture, built on Intel's 10 nm process, and is part of the HD Graphics-T (Twin Lake) generation. The chip is named Twin Lake, and it operates as an integrated graphics processor (IGP) with a ring bus interface. Its base clock is 300 MHz with a boost clock of 1000 MHz, and it draws 6 W of power. The silicon has 192 shading units, 12 texture mapping units, and 4 raster operation pipelines. Pixel rate is 4.000 GPixel/s, texture rate is 12.00 GTexel/s, and FP32 compute is 384.0 GFLOPS. FP16 performance is 768.0 GFLOPS with a 2:1 ratio. The part has no dedicated RT cores or tensor cores. Memory is system shared with system-dependent bandwidth, and the bus width is also system shared. The production status is Active, with a release date of 2024-12-31.

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 GDDR6 uses the Ada Lovelace architecture, built on TSMC's 5 nm process, with a die size of 294 mm² containing 35,800 million transistors, for a transistor density of 121.8 million per mm². The chip is AD104, and it belongs to the GeForce 40-series. Base clock is 1920 MHz with a boost of 2475 MHz, and memory runs at 2500 MHz with 20 Gbps effective. It has 12 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 192-bit bus, delivering 480.0 GB/s of bandwidth. The GPU has 5888 shading units, 184 TMUs, 64 ROPs, 46 RT cores, and 184 tensor cores. Pixel rate is 158.4 GPixel/s, texture rate is 455.4 GTexel/s, and FP32 compute is 29.15 TFLOPS. FP16 is also 29.15 TFLOPS with a 1:1 ratio. Power draw is 200 W with a single 16-pin power connector and a suggested PSU of 550 W. The card is dual-slot, measures 240 mm in length, 110 mm in height, and 40 mm in width, and uses PCIe 4.0 x16. Display outputs include one HDMI 2.1 and three DisplayPort 1.4a connectors. Production status is End-of-life, with a release date of 2024-08-19, a predecessor in the GeForce 30 series, and a successor in the GeForce 50 series. The launch MSRP is 599 USD.

The process node difference is significant: 10 nm versus 5 nm. The RTX 4070 GDDR6 packs over 35 billion transistors, while the Intel part's transistor count is unknown. The RTX 4070 GDDR6 has more than 30 times the shading units, more than 15 times the TMUs, and 16 times the ROPs. The FP32 compute ratio is roughly 76 to 1 in favor of the NVIDIA part. The RTX 4070 GDDR6 also includes dedicated ray tracing and tensor cores, neither of which exist on the Intel IGP. API support differs: the RTX 4070 GDDR6 supports DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), while the Intel part supports DirectX 12 (12_1). Both support OpenGL 4.6 and Vulkan 1.4. The power envelope differs by a factor of over 33, with the Intel part at 6 W and the NVIDIA part at 200 W. The Intel part is an IGP with system shared memory, while the NVIDIA part has dedicated 12 GB GDDR6.

Where Each One Wins

The Intel Graphics 24EU Mobile is designed for low-power, portable devices. Its 6 W TDP and IGP form factor mean it consumes minimal power and requires no additional cooling beyond what a laptop or compact system provides. The system shared memory architecture simplifies design and reduces cost of integration. This part is clearly aimed at basic display output, light productivity, and media consumption rather than compute-intensive workloads. The data shows no benchmarks for this part, so its wins are qualitative: it wins on power efficiency, thermal footprint, and system integration simplicity.

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 GDDR6 wins decisively on raw compute metrics. Its FP32 throughput of 29.15 TFLOPS is orders of magnitude higher than the Intel part's 384.0 GFLOPS. The texture rate of 455.4 GTexel/s versus 12.00 GTexel/s represents a 38-fold advantage. Pixel rate of 158.4 GPixel/s versus 4.000 GPixel/s is a 39.6-fold advantage. The RTX 4070 GDDR6 also brings dedicated ray tracing and tensor cores, which enable features the Intel part cannot perform in hardware. The 12 GB GDDR6 memory with 480.0 GB/s bandwidth is a stark contrast to the system-dependent shared memory of the Intel IGP. The RTX 4070 GDDR6's 3DMark Steel Nomad score of 4334.5, while modest relative to the broader database, still represents a level of DX12 performance that the Intel part has no recorded data to match.

For gaming and 3D rendering, the RTX 4070 GDDR6 is the only viable option between the two. For basic desktop, video playback, and lightweight tasks in a low-power mobile device, the Intel Graphics 24EU Mobile is the only realistic choice given its integration and power profile.

The Verdict

The data presents two products with no overlapping use cases. The Intel Graphics 24EU Mobile is a 6 W integrated GPU with 192 shading units, 12 TMUs, 4 ROPs, and 384.0 GFLOPS of FP32 compute. It is built for systems where power draw must stay minimal and where dedicated graphics memory is not available. Its active production status indicates ongoing availability for device manufacturers.

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 GDDR6 is a 200 W dual-slot discrete card with 5888 shading units, 184 TMUs, 64 ROPs, 46 RT cores, 184 tensor cores, and 29.15 TFLOPS of FP32 compute. It has 12 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 192-bit bus with 480.0 GB/s bandwidth. Its single recorded benchmark score of 4334.5 in 3DMark Steel Nomad places it at the 25th percentile, with nearest rivals within 1.2% in either direction. The card is end-of-life, with a successor in the GeForce 50 series.

A user who needs to run modern 3D workloads, ray tracing, or tensor-based features must choose the RTX 4070 GDDR6. A user who needs a graphics solution embedded in a low-power mobile device with no discrete memory will choose the Intel Graphics 24EU Mobile. The two do not compete in the same segment, and the benchmark data confirms no direct comparison exists between them. The RTX 4070 GDDR6's performance in its single recorded test is unremarkable relative to the database population, but its architectural resources dwarf the Intel IGP by every measurable metric. The choice between these two parts is determined by the system type, not by performance preference.
