Intel Graphics 24EU Mobile vs NVIDIA RTX PRO 4500 Blackwell Comparison

Intel Graphics 24EU Mobile and NVIDIA RTX PRO 4500 Blackwell occupy opposite ends of the GPU spectrum, and the recorded data reflects that divide clearly. The Intel part is a 6 W integrated graphics solution built for portability, while the NVIDIA card is a 200 W professional workstation board with 32 GB of GDDR7 memory. Benchmark results confirm the NVIDIA part’s dominance, but the Intel chip’s role as a basic display and compute engine is equally well-defined by the numbers.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The benchmark data for the NVIDIA RTX PRO 4500 Blackwell shows a series of decisive wins across every recorded test. In Passmark G3D, the NVIDIA card scores 33360, while the Intel Graphics 24EU Mobile has no recorded benchmark score in the database, meaning the comparison is one-sided. The NVIDIA part’s average benchmark score of 31532 places it at the 76th percentile of all GPUs, whereas the Intel chip sits at the 50th percentile with an average score of 0.

Looking at specific NVIDIA results, the Geekbench Vulkan score of 221768 indicates strong compute performance for graphics APIs. The Passmark GPU Compute score of 19255 further demonstrates its capability in parallel workloads. DirectX performance shows a mixed but positive picture: Passmark DirectX 10 delivers 204, DirectX 11 delivers 320, DirectX 12 delivers 119, and DirectX 9 delivers 397. These numbers are all recorded for the NVIDIA card, and the Intel part has no corresponding entries in the database.

The 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 test returns a score of 7025 for the NVIDIA RTX PRO 4500 Blackwell, which is a meaningful indicator of modern DirectX 12 gaming and rendering performance. The Intel Graphics 24EU Mobile has no such score on file, so any comparison must rely on the architectural specifications and the absence of benchmark data for the Intel side.

Relative to its nearest rivals, the NVIDIA card shows small deltas. It sits 0.5% below the NVIDIA TITAN RTX (which has an average score of 31676), 1% above the NVIDIA GRID M60-1Q (31220), 1% above the NVIDIA Quadro M5000 (31206), and 1.1% below the Intel Arc Pro A30M (31894). These figures indicate that the RTX PRO 4500 Blackwell is competitive with older high-end workstation cards, though it does not lead that group. The Intel Graphics 24EU Mobile has no nearest rivals listed, underscoring its unique position as a low-power integrated solution with no comparable discrete cards in the database.

Architecture Differences

The two GPUs differ fundamentally in process node, die size, and feature set. The Intel Graphics 24EU Mobile uses a 10 nm process from Intel’s own foundry, based on the Twin Lake chip and the Xe-LP architecture. The NVIDIA RTX PRO 4500 Blackwell uses a 5 nm process from TSMC, built around the GB203 chip and the Blackwell 2.0 architecture. This process advantage alone gives the NVIDIA part a substantial density and efficiency headroom, and the transistor counts confirm that: NVIDIA lists 45,600 million transistors on a 378 mm² die, while the Intel chip’s transistor count and die size are marked as unknown in the database.

The NVIDIA card’s transistor density is recorded at 120.6M per mm², a figure that reflects the advanced 5 nm manufacturing. The Intel part has no density figure. Clock speeds also diverge sharply. The Intel GPU runs at a base of 300 MHz and a boost of 1000 MHz, while the NVIDIA card starts at 1635 MHz base and boosts to 2407 MHz. Memory configurations are entirely different: the Intel chip uses system shared memory with system dependent bandwidth, while the NVIDIA card has 32 GB of GDDR7 on a 256-bit bus, delivering 896.0 GB/s of bandwidth.

Compute resources show the scale of the gap. The Intel Graphics 24EU Mobile has 192 shading units, 12 texture mapping units, and 4 raster output units. The NVIDIA RTX PRO 4500 Blackwell has 10496 shading units, 328 TMUs, and 112 ROPs. The NVIDIA card also includes 82 ray tracing cores and 328 tensor cores, while the Intel chip lists no such hardware. Pixel and texture rates follow: Intel achieves 4.000 GPixel/s and 12.00 GTexel/s, while NVIDIA reaches 269.6 GPixel/s and 789.5 GTexel/s. FP32 throughput is 384.0 GFLOPS for Intel versus 50.53 TFLOPS for NVIDIA. FP16 is 768.0 GFLOPS for Intel (at a 2:1 ratio) versus 50.53 TFLOPS for NVIDIA (at 1:1), meaning NVIDIA does not halve its throughput for half precision.

API support differs as well. The Intel chip supports DirectX 12 (12_1), while the NVIDIA card supports DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2). Both offer OpenGL 4.6 and Vulkan 1.4. The NVIDIA card’s higher DirectX tier allows for more advanced rendering features, though the Intel part still covers the base DirectX 12 feature set.

The Verdict

The data points to a clear separation of roles. The NVIDIA RTX PRO 4500 Blackwell is a high-performance workstation GPU designed for demanding professional workloads, evidenced by its 32 GB GDDR7 memory, 896.0 GB/s bandwidth, 10496 shading units, and 50.53 TFLOPS FP32 throughput. Its benchmark scores, including a 33360 Passmark G3D result and a 221768 Geekbench Vulkan score, place it in the upper quartile of all GPUs. The Intel Graphics 24EU Mobile, by contrast, is a 6 W integrated processor with 192 shading units and a 1000 MHz boost clock, built for basic display output and light compute in portable devices. Its lack of any recorded benchmark scores in the database means its performance is not directly measured, but its specifications indicate a minimal footprint suitable for low-power systems.

For any task involving modern rendering, compute, or professional graphics, the NVIDIA card is the only viable choice based on the recorded data. The Intel chip’s role is limited to systems where power consumption is the primary constraint, and where the integrated nature of the GPU (marked as IGP slot width) is acceptable.

Specification Differences

The two GPUs differ in nearly every measurable specification. The Intel Graphics 24EU Mobile uses a 10 nm process from Intel, while the NVIDIA RTX PRO 4500 Blackwell uses a 5 nm process from TSMC. The NVIDIA card has 45,600 million transistors on a 378 mm² die, whereas the Intel chip has unknown transistor count and die size. Clock speeds are 300 MHz base and 1000 MHz boost for Intel, versus 1635 MHz base and 2407 MHz boost for NVIDIA. Memory is system shared for Intel, versus 32 GB GDDR7 on a 256-bit bus with 896.0 GB/s bandwidth for NVIDIA. Shading units number 192 for Intel and 10496 for NVIDIA. TMUs are 12 versus 328, and ROPs are 4 versus 112. The NVIDIA card adds 82 RT cores and 328 tensor cores, which the Intel chip lacks. Pixel rate is 4.000 GPixel/s versus 269.6 GPixel/s, texture rate is 12.00 GTexel/s versus 789.5 GTexel/s, and FP32 is 384.0 GFLOPS versus 50.53 TFLOPS. FP16 is 768.0 GFLOPS (2:1) versus 50.53 TFLOPS (1:1). TDP is 6 W versus 200 W. Slot width is IGP for Intel versus dual-slot for NVIDIA. The NVIDIA card uses a PCIe 5.0 x16 interface and a 1x 16-pin power connector, while the Intel chip uses a Ring Bus interface and no power connectors. Display outputs are portable device dependent for Intel versus 4x DisplayPort 2.1b for NVIDIA. DirectX support is 12 (12_1) for Intel versus 12 Ultimate (12_2) for NVIDIA.

Where Each One Wins

The NVIDIA RTX PRO 4500 Blackwell wins in every benchmark category where data exists. Its 33360 Passmark G3D score and 19255 GPU Compute score indicate strong performance in both graphics and compute workloads. The 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 7025 confirms capability in modern DirectX 12 titles. The Vulkan score of 221768 shows excellent API-level performance. The NVIDIA card’s 112 ROPs and 269.6 GPixel/s pixel rate support high-resolution rendering, while its 328 TMUs and 789.5 GTexel/s texture rate handle complex scenes. The 82 RT cores enable ray tracing, and the 328 tensor cores accelerate AI workloads. With 32 GB of GDDR7 memory and 896.0 GB/s bandwidth, it can hold large datasets for professional applications.

The Intel Graphics 24EU Mobile wins in the context of power and integration. Its 6 W TDP is dramatically lower than the NVIDIA card’s 200 W, making it suitable for fanless or passively cooled portable devices. Its IGP slot width and Ring Bus interface mean it requires no separate power connectors or PCIe slot, simplifying system design. The system shared memory configuration eliminates dedicated VRAM costs. Its 1000 MHz boost clock and 192 shading units are modest, but sufficient for basic display output and lightweight compute tasks. The 12 (12_1) DirectX support and Vulkan 1.4 compatibility allow it to run standard applications, though without the advanced features of DirectX 12 Ultimate. For systems prioritizing battery life, size, and simplicity over raw performance, the Intel chip is the appropriate choice. For everything else, the NVIDIA card’s benchmark results and specifications make it the clear winner.
