Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The database contains no direct head-to-head benchmark comparisons between these two GPUs. However, the RTX 5070's individual benchmark results provide a clear performance profile across multiple tests.

In 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12, the RTX 5070 scores 5077. In Geekbench OpenCL, it scores 172660. In Geekbench Vulkan, the score reaches 178923. Passmark results show a G3D score of 29137, a GPU compute score of 15787, a G2D score of 1305, and legacy DirectX tests ranging from 108 (DirectX 12) to 320 (DirectX 9).

The RTX 5070's average benchmark score of 40377 places it in the 82nd percentile of all GPUs. Its nearest rivals in the database confirm its positioning: the AMD Radeon Pro 580 scores 40318 (0.1% higher), the AMD Radeon Pro WX 7100 scores 40063 (0.8% lower), the AMD Radeon Pro 5300 scores 40870 (1.2% higher), and the NVIDIA RTX A500 Mobile scores 39568 (2.0% lower). These deltas indicate the RTX 5070 performs competitively within its immediate performance tier, with differences under 2% across all four nearest rivals.

The Intel Graphics 24EU Mobile has no recorded benchmark scores, no average score, and no nearest rivals in the database. Its percentile ranking of 50 reflects the midpoint position, but without benchmark data, no comparative performance analysis can be derived from the measurements.

The specification gap between the two parts is substantial. The RTX 5070's FP32 throughput of 30.87 TFLOPS versus the Intel part's 384.0 GFLOPS represents a compute advantage of over 80 times. Pixel rate differences follow a similar pattern: 201.0 GPixel/s versus 4.000 GPixel/s. Texture rates show 482.3 GTexel/s versus 12.00 GTexel/s.

The RTX 5070's 12 GB GDDR7 memory with 672.0 GB/s bandwidth provides dedicated high-speed storage for frame buffers and textures. The Intel part's system-shared memory with system-dependent bandwidth cannot match this dedicated resource allocation. The RTX 5070's 192-bit memory bus versus the Intel part's shared system bus further reinforces the bandwidth disparity.

Clock speed differences contribute to the performance gap. The RTX 5070's boost clock of 2512 MHz is more than twice the Intel part's 1000 MHz boost. Combined with the RTX 5070's 32 times more shading units (6144 versus 192), the aggregate compute capability difference is immense.

The RTX 5070's 48 ray tracing cores and 192 tensor cores enable workloads that the Intel Graphics 24EU Mobile cannot accelerate in hardware. DirectX 12 Ultimate support on the RTX 5070 versus DirectX 12 (12_1) on the Intel part also marks a feature-level difference for modern game APIs.

In summary, the recorded data shows the RTX 5070 as a high-performance discrete GPU with strong benchmark results and competitive positioning among its nearest rivals. The Intel Graphics 24EU Mobile serves as an entry-level integrated solution with minimal power draw, suited for basic graphics tasks in mobile devices where discrete performance is unnecessary. The two products occupy separate market segments with no overlap in performance capability based on the available measurements.
