Intel Arc A730M 3DMark TimeSpy Score Spied, in League of RTX 3070 Laptop GPU

Someone with access to a gaming notebook powered by Intel Arc “Alchemist” A730M discrete GPU posted its alleged 3DMark TimeSpy score, and it looks pretty interesting—10.138 points, which is somewhat higher than that of the GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU or halfway between those of the desktop GeForce RTX 3060 and desktop RTX 3060 Ti.

Based on the Xe-HPG graphics architecture, the Arc A730M features 24 Xe Cores, or 384 execution units, which work out to 3,072 unified shaders. This is not even Intel’s most powerful mobile GPU, with that title going to the A770M, which maxes out the ACM-G10 ASIC, with all 512 execution units (4,096 unified shaders) being enabled. It particularly raises hopes for a competitive high-end GPU for gaming notebooks, which can perform in the league of the RTX 3080 Laptop GPU, or the Radeon RX 6800M.
