A few days before the premiere of the new generation Intel Arc Battlemage graphics cards, all specifications of the new products have appeared on the network. As previously reported, the chipmaker will release two models: Arc B570 and Arc B580.
Judging by the specifications, these will be mid-range solutions, writes VideoCardz.
Intel Arc B570 specifications
- 18 Xe2 cores, 144 compute units.
- 10 GB of GDDR6 video memory.
- 160-bit bus, 19 Gbit/sec
- GPU frequency up to 2.6 GHz.
Intel Arc B580 specifications
- 20 Xe2 cores, 320 compute units.
- 12 GB GDDR6 video memory
- 192-bit bus, 19 Gbit/sec.
- GPU frequency up to 2.8 GHz.
The specifications of both cards indicate the presence of three DisplayPort 2.1 ports and one HDMI 2.1, as well as a PCIe 4.0×8 interface. At the same time, there are hints of high power consumption: the Arc B570 will receive power from one 8-pin connector, while the B580 has two of them at once. This means a maximum power of ~375 W.
There is no information on the prices and gaming performance of both video cards. It is assumed that the Arc B580 will cost about $ 250 (~ 10,500 UAH), and the B570 – even less. Probably $ 200 (~ 8,300 UAH). The presentation of the cards will take place on December 3.
The presentation of the new Nvidia graphics cards will take place in January 2025. If rumors are to be believed, the RTX 5090 will be a real “monster” graphics card with 32 GB of memory and a power consumption of 600 W. Around the same time, AMD will release new RDNA 4 (Radeon 8000) graphics cards.
