Intel Arc A570M vs NVIDIA RTX PRO 4500 Blackwell Server Comparison

Where Each One Wins

The recorded data presents an unusual comparison: the Intel Arc A570M has a single OpenCL benchmark score, while the NVIDIA RTX PRO 4500 Blackwell Server has no benchmark entries in the database. This means the head-to-head win count stands at zero for both parts. The Arc A570M registers an average benchmark score of 58,239, placing it in the 88th percentile of all GPUs tracked. The RTX PRO 4500 Blackwell Server, by contrast, shows a 50th percentile ranking with an average score of zero, indicating that no measurement has been recorded for it yet.

The Arc A570M's single recorded score can be positioned against its nearest rivals. In the Geekbench OpenCL test, it sits 0.3% behind the AMD Radeon RX 6950 XT, which averages 58,392. It is also 0.5% behind the NVIDIA P102-100 at 58,528 and 0.7% behind the AMD Radeon PRO V710 at 58,657. At the same time, it edges out the AMD Radeon RX 5600 OEM by 0.3%, as that card averages 58,085. These deltas are all under one percentage point, so the Arc A570M effectively trades blows with a cluster of mid-range and older high-end parts.

The RTX PRO 4500 Blackwell Server cannot be evaluated on any measured workload because the database contains no scores for it. Its 50th percentile figure is a default placement rather than a result derived from testing. Consequently, every use-case conclusion in this analysis must be drawn from the architectural and specification fields for the Blackwell part, not from benchmark evidence. The data shows that the Intel part is the only one with a verified performance footprint, while the NVIDIA part remains an unmeasured server product.

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The head-to-head benchmarks array in the database is empty, so there are no direct comparison scores between the Intel Arc A570M and the NVIDIA RTX PRO 4500 Blackwell Server. The only quantitative performance evidence available is the Arc A570M's Geekbench OpenCL result of 58,239. Since the NVIDIA part has no recorded measurement, no exact head-to-head deltas can be computed.

What can be established is the Arc A570M's standing relative to other GPUs. Its score of 58,239 places it within a narrow band of performance. The AMD Radeon RX 6950 XT scores 58,392, putting the Intel part 0.3% behind. The NVIDIA P102-100 scores 58,528, a 0.5% gap. The AMD Radeon PRO V710 scores 58,657, a 0.7% gap. On the positive side, the AMD Radeon RX 5600 OEM scores 58,085, which the Arc A570M beats by 0.3%. These margins are small enough that run-to-run variance could reorder them, but the database records them as the measured deltas.

For the RTX PRO 4500 Blackwell Server, the absence of scores means no wins can be attributed to it in any benchmark. The specification sheet, however, suggests a much larger compute ceiling. The NVIDIA part's FP32 throughput of 50.70 TFLOPS is roughly 9.5 times the Arc A570M's 5.325 TFLOPS, though this is a theoretical rate, not a tested result. The texture rate of 792.1 GTexel/s versus 166.4 GTexel/s and the pixel rate of 270.5 GPixel/s versus 83.20 GPixel/s point in the same direction. These figures are derived from clock speeds and unit counts, not from benchmark runs, so they should be read as peak capabilities rather than measured performance.

The database's win counters reflect this lack of direct testing: winsA is 0 and winsB is 0. Neither product claims a head-to-head victory because no head-to-head data exists. The practical interpretation is that the Arc A570M has a verified baseline performance level, while the RTX PRO 4500 Blackwell Server is an unmeasured product whose expected performance must be inferred from its architecture and specifications.

Specification Differences

The two GPUs differ across nearly every specification field. The Intel Arc A570M is built on the DG2-256 chip with an Alchemist generation label, while the NVIDIA RTX PRO 4500 Blackwell Server uses the GB203 chip in the Server Blackwell generation. The process nodes differ: Intel uses a 6 nm TSMC process, NVIDIA uses a 5 nm TSMC process. Transistor counts are 11,500 million for Intel and 45,600 million for NVIDIA, with die sizes of 269 mm² and 378 mm² respectively. Transistor density is 42.8M per mm² for Intel versus 120.6M per mm² for NVIDIA.

Clock behavior diverges sharply. The Arc A570M has a base clock of 900 MHz and a boost of 1300 MHz. The RTX PRO 4500 Blackwell Server runs at 1215 MHz base and 2415 MHz boost. Memory clocks also differ: the Intel part uses 1750 MHz with 14 Gbps effective, while the NVIDIA part uses 1563 MHz with 25 Gbps effective.

Memory capacity, type, and bandwidth are all different. Intel offers 8 GB of GDDR6 on a 128-bit bus for 224.0 GB/s. NVIDIA offers 32 GB of GDDR7 on a 256-bit bus for 800.3 GB/s. The compute unit counts show a wide gap: 2048 shading units, 128 TMUs, and 64 ROPs for Intel versus 10496 shading units, 328 TMUs, and 112 ROPs for NVIDIA. Ray tracing cores number 16 for Intel and 82 for NVIDIA. NVIDIA also lists 328 tensor cores, while Intel has none recorded.

Pixel and texture rates reflect these differences. Intel records 83.20 GPixel/s and 166.4 GTexel/s. NVIDIA records 270.5 GPixel/s and 792.1 GTexel/s. FP32 performance is 5.325 TFLOPS for Intel and 50.70 TFLOPS for NVIDIA. FP16 is 10.65 TFLOPS with a 2:1 ratio for Intel, while NVIDIA achieves 50.70 TFLOPS at a 1:1 ratio.

Power and physical specifications separate the mobile-oriented Intel part from the server NVIDIA part. The Arc A570M has a TDP of 75 W, an IGP slot width, no power connectors, and a PCIe 4.0 x8 interface. The RTX PRO 4500 Blackwell Server has a TDP of 165 W, a single-slot width, one 16-pin power connector, a suggested PSU of 450 W, and a PCIe 5.0 x16 interface. Display outputs are portable-device dependent for Intel, while NVIDIA lists no outputs. The NVIDIA card has recorded dimensions of 267 mm length, 111 mm height, and 40 mm width. Intel has no dimensions listed. Release dates are 2023-07-31 for Intel and 2026-03-16 for NVIDIA.

Architecture Differences

The Intel Arc A570M uses the Xe-HPG architecture, which the database labels as Alchemist for the Arc 5 Mobile generation. It is manufactured on a 6 nm TSMC node with a transistor density of 42.8M per mm². The GPU integrates 16 ray tracing cores and no tensor cores. Its FP16 rate is double its FP32 rate, indicating a 2:1 shader ratio for half-precision work. The 128-bit memory bus and GDDR6 type suggest a design aimed at compact, power-limited systems. The PCIe 4.0 x8 interface and IGP slot width further indicate a mobile or embedded orientation.

The NVIDIA RTX PRO 4500 Blackwell Server uses the Blackwell 2.0 architecture in the Server Blackwell generation. It is fabricated on a 5 nm TSMC node with a transistor density of 120.6M per mm², nearly three times the Intel density. The GPU contains 82 ray tracing cores and 328 tensor cores, reflecting a design that targets server-side rendering, AI inference, and professional compute workloads. Its FP16 rate equals its FP32 rate at a 1:1 ratio, meaning no throughput penalty for half-precision operations. The 256-bit GDDR7 memory interface and PCIe 5.0 x16 bus position it as a high-bandwidth, high-throughput server part.

The architectural gap is substantial. Intel's Xe-HPG generation predates NVIDIA's newer Blackwell 2.0 design by several product cycles. The transistor density difference alone, 42.8M versus 120.6M per mm², indicates a much more compact logic design in the NVIDIA chip. The absence of tensor cores in the Intel part means no dedicated hardware for matrix operations, while the NVIDIA part includes 328 such units. Ray tracing hardware is also more abundant on the NVIDIA side, with 82 cores versus 16.

The memory architectures reflect different priorities. Intel chooses 8 GB of GDDR6 for a 75 W power envelope. NVIDIA chooses 32 GB of GDDR7 for a 165 W envelope, trading power for capacity and bandwidth. The NVIDIA part's 800.3 GB/s bandwidth is 3.6 times the Intel part's 224.0 GB/s. The server designation of the NVIDIA part is reinforced by its lack of display outputs, while the Intel part's display outputs are listed as portable-device dependent, consistent with a mobile GPU.

The Verdict

The data supports a clear split in intended use cases. The Intel Arc A570M is a verified performer in a single OpenCL test, scoring 58,239 and ranking in the 88th percentile of all GPUs. Its nearest rivals show that it competes with the AMD Radeon RX 6950 XT, AMD Radeon RX 5600 OEM, NVIDIA P102-100, and AMD Radeon PRO V710, all within a 1% margin. This makes it a credible option for workloads that fit within its 8 GB GDDR6 memory and 75 W power envelope. Its 16 ray tracing cores and 2048 shading units provide a baseline for DirectX 12 Ultimate and Vulkan 1.4 applications, though its 5.325 TFLOPS FP32 rate is modest.

The NVIDIA RTX PRO 4500 Blackwell Server has no benchmark data, so its performance cannot be confirmed from measurements. Its specifications, however, describe a part in a different class. The 50.70 TFLOPS FP32 rate, 32 GB of GDDR7 memory, 800.3 GB/s bandwidth, 328 tensor cores, and 82 ray tracing cores indicate a server-oriented GPU designed for large-scale compute and rendering tasks. The 165 W TDP, single 16-pin connector, and 450 W suggested PSU show that it expects a proper power supply, unlike the Intel part's 75 W TDP with no connector requirements. The PCIe 5.0 x16 interface and single-slot form factor are consistent with a rack-mounted server environment.

Who should pick which depends entirely on the workload context. For a portable or low-power system where the 75 W TDP and IGP form factor are mandatory, the Intel Arc A570M is the only choice that fits. Its measured score of 58,239 provides a concrete reference point. For a server deployment where memory capacity, compute throughput, and AI features are paramount, the NVIDIA RTX PRO 4500 Blackwell Server is the specified part, but its lack of recorded benchmarks means any performance expectation must be inferred from the specification sheet rather than validated results.

The database records no head-to-head wins for either product. The Arc A570M's single benchmark score and the RTX PRO 4500's empty benchmark array leave the comparison incomplete. What the data does show is that these are not interchangeable parts. One is a low-power mobile GPU with verified mid-range OpenCL performance. The other is a high-power server GPU with a specification sheet that suggests far higher capability, but no measured evidence yet. The choice rests on whether the requirement is a known quantity in a small footprint or an unmeasured server accelerator with maximum theoretical throughput.
