Benchmark results for the Arc B390 integrated graphics unit (iGPU), which Intel will offer alongside its next-generation Panther Lake processors, have been leaked, demonstrating a significant leap forward in integrated graphics performance for mobile devices.

The Arc B390 Will Make a Big Difference

The Arc B390, the flagship of the Core Ultra Series 3 chips, scored a remarkable 9453 points in the PassMark graphics test. This result represents an eighty-three percent performance increase over Intel’s previous-generation Arc 140V (Lunar Lake) model and a sixty-seven percent performance increase over the Arc 140T.

The Arc B390 is based on a 12-core Xe3 architecture, and the power of this new architecture is particularly evident against competing AMD iGPUs. The new iGPU achieved a sixteen percent score higher than the current fastest RDNA 3.5 integrated graphics unit, the Radeon 890M. Despite AMD preparing a faster Radeon 890M variant with a clock speed of 3.1 GHz, the Arc B390 is expected to maintain its leading position.

Intel offers four Arc B300 iGPU models under the Core Ultra Series 3 banner in its Panther Lake processors: the Arc B390, B380, B370, and B360. These models feature 2, 4, 10, and up to 12 Xe3 cores. Leaked results demonstrate its superiority not only against integrated graphics but also against discrete graphics cards.

The Arc B390 is eighteen percent faster than the discrete Arc A530M, which has the same number of Xe cores but is based on the older Alchemist architecture, posing a serious threat to entry-level discrete graphics solutions.

This level of performance and the introduction of cutting-edge features like XeSS 3 MFG with the Xe3 architecture make Panther Lake an excellent choice, especially for devices that require high throughput, such as handheld consoles.
