Intel Arc Pro B60

2025

Why buy it

✅Costs $6,500 less on MSRP ($500 MSRP vs $7,000 MSRP).
✅Delivers 1309.9% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 27.6 vs 2.0 G3D/$ ($500 MSRP vs $7,000 MSRP).
✅More future proof: Xe2 (2024) on 5nm with a newer platform for upcoming games.
✅Draws 200W instead of 235W, a 35W reduction.

Trade-offs

❌Lower average FPS than Quadro GP100 across 49 tracked games in our benchmark data.
❌Less VRAM, with 8 GB vs 16 GB for high-resolution textures and newer games.

Quick Answers

So, is Intel Arc Pro B60 better than Quadro GP100?

Yes. Intel Arc Pro B60 is clearly the better overall GPU here. Quadro GP100 averages 44.7% more FPS across 49 tracked games in our benchmark data. You are also looking at 13,807 vs 13,710 in G3D Mark. On top of that, Intel Arc Pro B60 is a 2025 card with no meaningful modern upscaling stack, while Quadro GP100 is a 2016 model from an older generation with no meaningful modern upscaling stack. So this is not really a tight same-tier comparison. It is more a modern card against an older, weaker alternative.

Which one is more future-proof for 2026 and beyond?

Intel Arc Pro B60 is the more future-proof choice for 2026 and beyond. You are getting a newer 2025 generation instead of 2016, 100.0% more ray-tracing hardware, and a 5nm process instead of 16nm. That makes it the safer long-run choice for modern games.

Which one is the smarter buy today, not just the cheaper card?

Intel Arc Pro B60 is the smarter buy today, but it is not as lopsided as a simple winner label makes it sound. Intel Arc Pro B60 is about $6,500 cheaper on MSRP at $500 MSRP versus $7,000 MSRP, and you are getting lower estimated average FPS across 49 tracked games in our benchmark data and 0.7% higher G3D Mark. It also leads G3D-per-dollar by 1309.9%. That is why the better overall card still comes out as the smarter buy today, not just the faster one.

Is Quadro GP100 still worth buying for gaming in 2026?

Yes. Quadro GP100 is still a strong modern gaming GPU: it is very strong for 1080p, good for 1440p, and more limited at 4K. It remains a good buy when you can get it meaningfully cheaper than the alternative around $7,000 MSRP, even if Intel Arc Pro B60 is still the cleaner recommendation on overall value today.
