Intel Arc finally shows itself live at IEMs
A few weeks ago, Intel confirmed the delays related to the Arc Alchemist desktop GPUs (which have been rumored for some time). Lisa Pearce, head of the Santa Clara giant's Visual Compute Group, had said, through a press release published on the official blog, that the launch would initially be limited to only one region, similar to what has already happened with the range's GPUs. intended for laptops. In particular, it will start with the low-end Arc A3 desktop models only on the Chinese market, and then arrive at a subsequent distribution globally, while the mid-range and high-end models A5 and A7 will instead be available everywhere by the end of ' summer.Later, the appearance of a section dedicated to "Intel Arc A3 for Desktop", now removed, made it seem that the market debut of low-end models for desktop computers was quite close. Recall that, according to the latest rumors, Arc A380 will be a card equipped with the ACM-G11 GPU with 8 Xe-Cores and should use a 96-bit memory bus (while the mobile variants are limited to 64-bit). >

The device, arranged vertically, was positioned inside an acrylic box on a rotating base. Unfortunately, it was not installed inside a system, so it was not possible to verify the performance achievable by the product, but at least we can appreciate its aesthetics and see that the card will adopt two PCIe power connectors (8-pin and 6-pin). At the moment, Intel has not yet revealed the price and release date of its Arc Alchemist desktop cards.| ); }
