Intel's $249 Arc B580 is the GPU we've begged for since the pandemic

Powered by the new Xe2 "Battlemage" architecture and a new XeSS 2 frame generation feature, Intel's $249 Arc B580 is FINALLY bringing 1440p gaming to the masses.

If even half of Intel’s claims are true, this could be a big shake up in the midrange market that has been entirely abandoned by both Nvidia and AMD.

    12 GB RAM - not quite enough to play w/ LLMs

    Good. Not every card has to be about AI, there’s enough of those already; we need gaming cards.

      Sure, I’m just saying what I would need for this card to be interesting. It’s not much better than what I have, and the extra VRAM isn’t enough to significantly change what I can do with it.

      So it either needs to have better performance or more VRAM for me to be interested.

      It’s a decent choice for new builds, but I don’t really think it makes sense as an upgrade for pretty much any card that exists today.
