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.

    Are the double capacity GDDR6X ICs being sold yet? I thought they weren’t and “double” cards like the 4060 TI were using 2 chips per channel.

      I’m really not sure, and I don’t think we have a teardown yet either, so we don’t know what capacities they’re running.

      Regardless, whether it’s a new PCB or just swapping chips shouldn’t matter too much for overall costs.
