The recent invasion of Intel in the professional sector Arc Pro B70 32 GB has generated a lot of interest among enthusiasts not only for its AI capabilities, but also for what it shows about the potential of the Grand Battle Mage (BMG-G31) architecture if it were also released for gaming.
In games, the Intel Arc Pro B70 competes with the RTX 5060 Ti
Based on the chip BMG-G31this card has 32 Xe2-HPG nuclei and some 32GB of GDDR6 memory. Recently conducted tests allowed us to compare their performance in games with Arc B580 and one GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16 GB.

Permit tests 1440 p They show a very interesting leap in performance over the B580. In rasterization, The B70 outperforms the Arc B580 by up to 41%, managing to position itself as a direct competitor to the RTX 5060 Ti. In demanding games like Cyberpunk 2077, the Intel card recorded 90.27 fps, beating the Nvidia variant’s 79.06 fps.

When it comes to ray tracing, the advantage is even more obvious. Chart Arc B70 to 65% faster than B580 and manages to surpass RTX 5060 Ti in various scenarios, with an advantage of up to 14% in games such as F1 25. Also, its AI power as measured with MLPerf, demonstrates excellent performance in processing tokens per second compared to Nvidia solutions.
Despite these results, Art Arc Pro B70 limited by its cost 949 dollars and his professional approach. Evidence suggests that a gamer-optimized version (such as a hypothetical Arc B770) would be a very competitive option in the range 400-500 dollars. Unfortunately, due to current memory supply constraints, Intel seems to have prioritized the business sector, leaving gamers without an option that would be very interesting in their segment.
with “what if”. However, the B70 makes it clear that the Battlemage architecture has a lot to say when its full potential is unleashed.
