Intel Introduces Arc Pro B60 and B50 Professional Graphics Cards with 24 and 16 GB of VRAM

At Computex 2025, the company Intel Introduces Arc Pro B60 and B50 Graphics Cards, designed specifically for workstations, AI and edge inference. Both models are based on the Battlemage architecture and use the chip BMG-G21, offering advanced features at an affordable price.

Flagship Arc Pro B60 comes with 24GB of GDDR6 memory with 456 GB/s of bandwidth and PCIe Gen5 x8 support. The GPU includes 20 Xe cores and 160 XMX units, providing up to 197 TOPS in INT8 calculationsThis solution is designed for large language models where 16 GB of VRAM of competing solutions is no longer enough. The Arc Pro B60 has a suggested retail price of $500., while as part of workstations it will be offered in systems priced from $5000.

In the performance chart published by Intel, Arc Pro B60 confidently beats RTX 2000 Ada and RTX 5060 Ti, especially in tasks with DeepSeek R1, Phi-4, QwQ and Llama 3 models. When working with 32B int4 and 14B int8 configurations, the speedup reaches 2.7 ×, while for smaller models with FP16 the increase is up to 1.9×. Exactly 24GB capacity allows tokens to be processed faster, without unloading the model into RAM, which gives a sharp increase on large parameters.

Intel also unveiled Project Battlematrix — a platform for working with 8 cards (two each GPU for each), providing up to 192GB VRAM and 1280 XMX blocksIt targets inference LLM over 70B parameters and uses a Linux and Xeon based software stack.

Model Arc Pro B50 received 16 GB VRAM, 16 Xe cores and 128 XMX, while its TDP is only 70 W. At a price of $299, the card shows up to 3x acceleration compared to previous generation A50, significantly outperforming the RTX A1000 in visualization and AI workloads. Both cards will ship in Q2025 XNUMX, with a DIY release later in the year.
