Intel's Panther Lake architecture Core Ultra 300 series processors are scheduled to be released on January 5, 2026. The processors will be equipped with the powerful integrated graphics Arc B390.The 3DMark benchmark test results of this graphics card have been announced, demonstrating its excellent gaming performance.
The Ultra 300 series processors will be equipped with the Arc B390 chip, which is based on the Xe3 architecture and has 12 GPU cores.While these processors have achieved very high scores on benchmarks such as Geekbench, these scores are OpenCL test results, which measure the GPU's computing power, not gaming performance.
Now, the Arc B390 has passed the 3DMark benchmark test, which results are closer to actual gaming performance.According to the leaked news, the graphics performance is very good for a CPU-integrated graphics card.
The performance is twice that of Radeon 890M and more than 10% higher than the desktop RTX 3050
Uncle OneRaichu revealed the approximate benchmark score of Arc B390 in 3DMark Time Spy Graphics, which is said to be over 7000 points.Even a slightly more demanding game like Battlefield 6 seems to be able to be played comfortably at Full HD resolution by tweaking the settings.
The Arc B390 score is only an approximation and may fluctuate based on the pre-release optimization process, but even a score of 7,000 points is still about 1.9 times the score of the Arc 140T in the previous generation of Arrow Lake-H processors.
It scores roughly twice as much as the Radeon 890M built into AMD's Strix Point, which has a similar TDP (thermal design power) to Panther Lake.
Additionally, the score is about 12% higher than the desktop RTX 3050, making it an excellent integrated graphics device that can be installed in thin and light laptops and other devices.
Intel has focused on integrated GPUs since the last generation of Lunar Lake/Arrow Lake processors. What is amazing is that in just two generations of products, its performance has surpassed AMD.
Intel plans to officially release the Panther Lake processor on January 5, 2026, and actual game performance data may be announced after the official release.
