Well, slap my case and call me Cua, because not only Intel’s Arc Battlemage graphics cards were not dead – have been bogged down in rumors about production incidents – but they have been named and out of the next week. Batch GPU The second specialized game of CPU manufacturers (according to the budget -end alchemist series) will include ARC B580, released on December 13 at $ 249 and ARC B570, arriving on January 16 from $ 219.
These prices tell us that Battlemage will, as the fake Kim did, trying to bite into the small part of the Gaming Gaming Market Pie that Nvidia and AMD seemed dissatisfied. However, this time, Intel said they are targeting the game 1440p quickly, which will propose to upgrade the huge performance on the 1080p concentrated metal model like the ARC A750. “The best performance per dollar”, no less, according to The Marketing BumF.
Finally, the ARC B580 and ARC B570 will pack more VRAM-12GB and 10GB, and support for Xoss 2. This is the new version of Intel’s Upscaler including the 3/FSR frame creation feature of DLSS 3/FSR. Pretty? I think? With all the bells and horns running, Xoss 2 can produce frame output with 3.9 times, although I wait to see this in action before slapping money to order in advance. Democratization of the advantages of framing creation is a noble goal when faced with Nvidia to keep DLSS 3 support for its latest RTX 40 GPU, but FSR 3 has never been suitable for visual quality or input management. Therefore, in reluctance, we must accept some facts in the idea that Frame Gen needs a very specific and advanced hardware to work comfortably.
Anyway, I am more interested in straightforward, traditional frames, and whether Intel can actually withdraw 60fps@1440P cards suitable or not-or two-price with such low prices. Or, as we said in 2016 or longer, a price. Over the past few years, the GPU cost has increased, but the GPU itself has to struggle to keep up with the increasing demand of highly honest games, so that you can easily reduce $ 500/$ 500 or more to get a really possible Quad HD engine. Perhaps we cannot expect the ARC B580 will knock RTX 4070 Super from its high -end perch, but with the interest of attractive options within the lower budget, I am sure to see it will be shot.
In other graphics card news, NVIDIA is expected to reveal GeForce RTX 5090 at Las Vegas’s CES program in early January. It may cost more than $ 219.
