Intel has entered the independent graphics card market. The Arc A380 was officially launched earlier, and the mid-to-high-end Arc 5 and Arc 7 series will be launched next. Intel is actively warming up the new cards, and for the first time officially announced the detailed specifications of the Arc 5 and Arc 7 series. The new models include the Arc A580, A750 and A770.
According to Intel’s official introduction, the three series of Arc discrete graphics cards are positioned as follows: Arc 3 series is positioned as Enhanced Gaming, Arc 5 series is Advanced Gaming, and Arc 7 series is High Performance Gaming.
The Arc 7 series with the highest positioning will launch two models, Arc A750 and A770, with built-in 28 and 32 Xe cores, namely 3,584 and 4,096 SPs; the number of Ray Tracing units is also 28 and 32 respectively, and the XMX engine There are 448 and 512 respectively. As the top model, the Graphics Clock of Arc A770 is as high as 2,100MHz, which is the highest in the whole series and 50MHz higher than that of Arc A750. Arc A750 and A770 are both equipped with 8GB 256-bit GDDR6 memory, operating clocks are slightly different, the bandwidth is 512Gbps and 560Gbps respectively.
Arc A770 Limited Edtion, that is, Intel’s public version card, will be equipped with 16GB of memory, which is twice as much as the A770 launched by other manufacturers. In terms of power consumption, the Total Board Power of Arc A770 Limited Edition and Arc A750 Limited Edition is the same as 225W, which needs to be powered by PCI-E 6-pin and 8-pin.
The Arc 5 series has only the A580 model, which provides 24 Xe cores, that is, 3,072 SPs, 24 Ray Tracing units, and 384 XMX engines. It can be seen that the core specifications and figures are all proportional additions and subtractions, and do not appear The “Old Yellow Sabre Method” is exquisitely crafted. The Arc A580 is equipped with 8GB 256-bit GDDR6 memory and has a bandwidth of 512Gbps. The memory specifications are on par with the Arc A750.
According to Intel’s earlier released video, the Arc A750 has an average lead of 3% to 5% over the RTX 3060 in 43 DX12 games, and a 2% to 4% advantage in 6 Vulkan games. Intel recently released a new video to preview the Ray Tracing performance of the Arc A770. Among the 17 games, 12 outperformed the RTX 3060, and the largest gap, “Ghostwire Tokyo”, led by 25%. Intel also announced that the Arc A770 will enable Ray Tracing and XeSS performance. In XeSS Performance mode, the FPS figure can be more than doubled compared to when it is disabled.
