Відеокарта Intel Arc B580 / Intel
Intel announced new Arc video cards based on the Xe2-HPG Battlemage architecture. This graphics architecture is already featured in Core Ultra 200V Lunar Lake notebook processors.
The video cards are not comparable to top-end GPUs, but will compete with the NVIDIA RTX 4060 series. Compared to the RTX 4060, the top new Intel product shows a 10% performance advantage in a set of 47 game tests, this time without enabling XeSS or DLSS scaling. However, comparisons with RTX 4060 show great variability—from -17% to +43%. Some games demonstrate minor or moderate performance loss, while others gained more than a 20% improvement.
Intel Arc B580 — a video card based on the BGM-G21 chip with 20 Xe2 cores. It features 12 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 192-bit bus. The chip’s operating frequency is 2.7 GHz, with performance enhancements provided by Intel partners. The card’s power consumption is 190 Watts.
The less powerful model, Intel Arc B570, has 18 Xe2 cores and 10 GB of 160-bit GDDR6 memory. It consumes 150 Watts. Both cards are equipped with a PCIe 4.0 x8 interface and DisplayPort 2.1 UHBR13.5 connectors.
The recommended price for the Intel Arc B580 is $249, with availability starting December 13. The Arc B570 will be priced at $219 and will be available from January 16, 2025.
