Intel Arrow Lake Xe-LPG+ “Arc 130T” iGPU Is Faster Than Lunar Lake Xe2 “Arc 140V” iGPU In OpenCL Benchmark Test

Intel’s Arrow Lake iGPU, the Xe-LPG+ based Arc 130T, has been tested in Geekbench’s OpenCL test & ended up faster than the Xe2-based Arc 140V.

Intel Xe-LPG+ vs Xe2 Benchmark Showdown in OpenCL Benchmark; Arrow Lake With 7 Xe Cores Ends Up Faster Than Lunar Lake With 8 Xe2 Cores

The Intel Arrow Lake-H “Core Ultra 200H” lineup is headed for launch at CES 2025 and while we have seen the initial lineup and its specs leak out, we are also seeing some benchmarks for the chips showing up. The latest benchmarks not only showcase the CPU performance but also the GPU performance, which is quite a bit interesting.

The CPU in question is the Intel Core Ultra 225H “Arrow Lake-H” which features 4 P-Cores and 10 E-Cores in a 14-core and 14-thread configuration. This chip has a base clock of 1.70 GHz and a boost clock of 4.9 GHz. The chip features 18 MB of L3 cache and was running on a Samsung “NP965XHD” laptop configuration with 16 GB of memory. On the iGPU side, the chip features the Arc 130T iGPU which is based on the upgraded Xe-LPG+ “Alchemist+” graphics architecture with 7 Xe cores or 112 execution units and shows up with 8 GB of shared system memory.

In terms of performance, the iGPU scored a respectable 33,508 points in the OpenCL test, which is ahead of the Arc 140V, which scores around 27-28K points. The Geekbench database lists the top score for the Arc 140V (16 GB config) at 27,109 points. The AMD Radeon 890M scores 37,804 points on the same benchmark, which is interesting since this isn’t even the full Xe-LPG+ configuration…
