According to the latest exposure of MLID gods, Intel plans to release Arc desktop graphics cards at the end of July or a little later in the world, opening OEM sales at the same time, and retail alone in August or a little later.

However, the schedule of “+” indicates that the continued postponement is also a probable event, such as the release time marked July 20 or later, now it has been July 29 ……

It is worth mentioning that the annual SIGGRAPH professional graphics conference will be held on August 8-11, Intel is likely to take this opportunity to announce the Arc graphics card workstation version, of course, may also be released at the same time the global Arc desktop version.

This time, Intel will release four different models at the same time, from high to low are Arc A770, Arc A750, Arc A580, Arc A380.

Non-public brands listed on the roadmap five names, are hidden, allegedly ASUS, ASRock, MSI, Gigabyte, Blue Halberd, but currently can only see the lowest Arc A380, and the listing time are all to be determined (TBC).

According to current rumors, Arc A770 is the flagship model of this generation (although the performance is probably equivalent to RTX 3060 Ti), 32 Xe cores, 256-bit 8/16GB GDDR6 memory, and power consumption of 225W.

Arc A750 streamlined to 28 Xe cores, memory is still 256-bit 8GB GDDR6, power consumption is still 225W.

Arc A580 is 16 Xe cores, memory with 128-bit 8GB GDDR6, and power consumption of 175W.

Arc A380 is familiar to everyone, only 8 Xe cores, memory with 96-bit 8GB GDDR6, and power consumption of 75W.

It is said that down there is an entry-level Arc A310, a district 4 Xe core, 64-bit 4GB GDDR6 memory, power consumption is still 75W, I do not know if it will come out.

ComputerBase has no problem pointing out that the Arc A380 isn’t a complete failure, but playing games with it is like wandering drunk in a minefield, and it’s impossible to put into words the terrible experience, and it’s hard to imagine that a big company with as much power as Intel would make such a product.

Igor’sLab even directly gave a bad review with no recommendation at all, only the second time in the history of its website.

In addition, after confirmation, Arc A380 does not support mining, completely unable to run any Ethernet program, including NiceHashMining, T-Rex miner, lolMiner, and TeamRedMiner on the Windows platform, perhaps you can wait for Hive OS.

Of course, now mining with graphics cards is extremely low revenue, Arc A380 is not very cheap, and mining is really not worth.
