How It Compares
AMD Radeon RX Vega M GH. The RX Vega M GH averages 29,197. The Arc A370M scores 0.1% lower, putting the two effectively at parity. The difference in average score is negligible in benchmark terms.
AMD Radeon Pro Vega 20. The Pro Vega 20 averages 29,235, and the Arc A370M trails by 0.2%. This is again a tie in practical terms; all listed rivals sit within a narrow band around the A370M’s average.
AMD Radeon RX 6650 XT. The RX 6650 XT averages 29,024. The Arc A370M is 0.5% ahead, a small but consistent margin that points to similar overall throughput in the measured benchmark set.
AMD Radeon RX 6800M. The RX 6800M averages 29,011. The Arc A370M is 0.6% ahead of this rival in the dataset. Despite being an IGP-form-factor part, the A370M lands slightly above a listed mobile AMD part in aggregate score.
The entire nearest-rival cluster spans from 29,011 to 29,235, and the Arc A370M’s 29,175 sits inside that band. The 72nd percentile ranking confirms that the A370M is not a top-tier GPU, but it is tightly grouped with several established AMD parts.
Power and Cooling
The Arc A370M carries a 35 W TDP, and its slot width is classified as IGP. That means the device is designed as an integrated-class mobile processor rather than a separate expansion card with its own cooler. The FACT PACK lists no power connector requirement and no suggested PSU, so power delivery is expected to come through the portable platform itself rather than through an external power supply.
Because the TDP is 35 W, the cooling burden is low relative to more power-hungry discrete GPUs. However, the exact thermal solution is not defined in the data; the system design determines how the heat is managed. The 6 nm TSMC process helps keep power and thermal characteristics in line with this compact positioning.
Benchmark Performance
The Arc A370M’s average benchmark score is 29,175. Its Geekbench OpenCL score is 29,676, and its Geekbench Vulkan score is 28,673.

In short, every listed rival is within one percent of the A370M.
The compute pipeline is built around 1,024 shading units, 64 texture mapping units, and 32 ROPs. The pixel rate is 65.60 GPixel/s, and the texture rate is 131.2 GTexel/s. FP32 throughput is 4.198 TFLOPS, while FP16 throughput is 8.397 TFLOPS at a 2:1 ratio. Base clock is 1550 MHz and boost clock is 2050 MHz. These figures indicate a small but balanced execution unit configuration.
The A370M connects through a PCIe 4.0 x8 bus interface. This interface, combined with a 112.0 GB/s memory path, shapes how quickly data can be fed to the compute units. The benchmark scores show that raw compute is competitive with the four nearest rivals, but the overall result is still a mid-pack ranking at the 72nd percentile.

Who Should Consider It
The Arc A370M is best suited for users who need modern API support in a low-power mobile package. Its 72nd percentile ranking and near-parity with four AMD rivals show that it is not a flagship-level part, but it delivers a consistent level of compute performance within its class. With 4.198 TFLOPS of FP32 throughput and a 131.2 GTexel/s texture rate, the GPU can handle workloads that fit within its compute envelope.
The main constraint is memory. Users should plan for workloads where 4 GB of GDDR6 and 112.0 GB/s of bandwidth are sufficient. At high resolutions, the 64-bit memory bus and 4 GB capacity will limit how much geometry and texture data can be streamed per frame. For lighter rendering loads or less memory-intensive scenarios, the compute and texture rates are better indicators of performance.
The 35 W TDP and IGP slot width make the A370M attractive for thin, power-limited portable devices. Users who prioritize raw FPS or very large frame buffers would be better served by a GPU with a different memory subsystem, but the A370M’s benchmark standing shows it can sit alongside several established mobile parts in average performance.
Memory Subsystem
The memory subsystem consists of 4 GB of GDDR6 on a 64-bit bus. The memory operates at 1750 MHz, with 14 Gbps effective data rate, producing 112.0 GB/s of bandwidth. This is a modest memory path by modern standards, and it forms the primary limitation for high-resolution workloads.
The 64-bit bus width means bandwidth is heavily dependent on the high effective memory speed. At high resolutions, the 112.0 GB/s ceiling will constrain how much data can be moved per second. The 4 GB capacity also sets a hard limit on how many high-resolution textures and buffers can reside in VRAM at once. For applications that exceed 4 GB of graphics memory, the A370M will be forced to rely on fallback methods, which reduces performance.
The memory clock, bus width, and capacity together explain why the A370M’s compute scores are competitive while its suitability for memory-heavy high-resolution scenes is limited.
Ray Tracing and Feature Set
The Arc A370M includes 8 ray tracing cores. The tensor core count is not specified in the data, so AI-accelerated compute cannot be quantified from this FACT PACK. The GPU supports DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4, giving it broad coverage across modern graphics APIs.
The presence of dedicated ray tracing cores and a DirectX 12 Ultimate feature level indicates hardware support for ray-traced effects in titles that use those APIs. The A370M also relies on portable-device-dependent display outputs, meaning the available display connectivity is defined by the host system rather than by the GPU alone. This is consistent with its IGP slot width and mobile positioning.
