The upcoming Intel Arc Alchemist A550M and A770M mobile graphics cards have been tested in 3DMark (Time Spy and Fire Strike Extreme tests), so we can get a preview of their performance levels. This also indicates that the devices have entered the testing phase, which means that their official presentation may take place soon.
The Intel Arc Alchemist A550M graphics card is based on the ACM-G10 GPU with 16 Xe cores. The device also contains 8 GB of GDDR6 memory with a 128-bit access bus. At the same time, the Intel Arc Alchemist A770M model is a more productive solution. In this case, the GPU includes 32 Xe cores, and the GDDR6 memory has a capacity of 16 GB and a 256-bit access bus.
In the 3DMark Time Spy test, the Intel Arc Alchemist A550M graphics card scored 6017 points. This used an older driver version 1726 and enabled the Intel APO (Advanced Performance Optimizations) feature. Using APO effectively invalidates the result according to 3DMark rules. Previous experience indicates that activation of APO provides an improvement in outcome of approximately 15%. On the other hand, this ensures comparability of the results with the Intel Arc A730M version tested earlier (with the same ACM-G10 GPU, but 24 Xe cores). The A730M, with 50% more Xe cores, was 67% faster than the A550M. The A730M was also 12% faster than the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060M graphics card.
The Intel Arc Alchemist A770M graphics card in the 3DMark Fire Strike Extreme test scored 13244 points, which is approximately the same as the results of the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070M.
