Bottom line: how fast is the Intel Arc A310?

At 1080p Medium, the Intel Arc A310 averages 260 fps in Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown with a 103 fps 1% low, per Notebookcheck. For local LLM inference it generates 13.4 tokens/sec running llama3.2:3b at q4_K_M under llama.cpp, per Jeff Geerling ai-benchmarks. In vkmark it scores 10,885 points, per Jeff Geerling ai-benchmarks. Its 4 GB of VRAM is the binding constraint for local inference: the llama3.2:3b run above (3.2B parameters) is the largest model on file at 4-bit quantization on this card.

Every figure above is a row in the tables below, and each row links out to the review or public benchmark database the number was taken from. SpecPicks aggregates published measurements; it does not report first-party benchmark runs.

Check what fits in 4 GB: by Q4-class file size, 2 of the 23 open-weight models in the SpecPicks Will-It-Run matrix load entirely into the Intel Arc A310's 4 GB with 1.5 GB left for an ~8K context, up to Llama 3.2 3B (a 2 GB Q4_K_M file per its Hugging Face listing).

Gaming Performance (reported FPS)

Average and 1% low frame rates by game, resolution, and quality preset. Bars are scaled against the fastest result on this page.

Gaming frame rates for the Intel Arc A310 by game, resolution, and quality preset. Rows from aggregator sites are estimates, not measured runs, dated by when SpecPicks fetched them. “1% low” is the frame-time floor that determines perceived smoothness. Each row links to its original review or benchmark database.

AI Inference Performance

Tokens per second under each model + quantization. Higher = faster generation. Bars compare runs across the same model.

Local LLM inference throughput on the Intel Arc A310, in generated tokens per second for a single request (one user's generation speed). Higher is better; each row links to the community report or benchmark database it came from.
Model	Quantization	Relative	Tokens/sec	VRAM used	Source
llama3.2:3b	q4_K_M llama.cpp		13.4 tok/s	1.9 GB	Jeff Geerling ai-benchmarks (GitHub) 2025-10-20

Synthetic Benchmarks

Higher is better. Bars are scaled within each benchmark family (multi-thread, single-thread, etc.) so you can compare like-with-like at a glance.

Synthetic benchmark scores for the Intel Arc A310 — higher is better. Each row links to the public database the number was taken from. A benchmark listed more than once is separate published results, shown as published rather than averaged.
