Intel Arc B390 GPU — Benchmarks & Specs

2026

Short answer: the Intel Arc B390 GPU generates 33.0 tokens/sec on Qwen3.6-35B-A3B (MTP, UD) (q4_K_M) under llama.cpp (Vulkan) in a single cited run, per grigio.org; there are too few comparable runs on file for a median.

Bottom line: how fast is the Intel Arc B390 GPU?

At 1440p High, the Intel Arc B390 GPU averages 65 fps in Red Dead Redemption 2, per Tweaktown. For local LLM inference it generates 33.0 tokens/sec running Qwen3.6-35B-A3B (MTP, UD) (a mixture-of-experts model with ~3B active parameters, so dense models of similar size run far slower) at q4_K_M under llama.cpp (Vulkan), per grigio.org. In 3DMark Night Raid it scores 48,530 points, per Club386.

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.

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 B390 GPU, 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.
