I added a new community post that supplements this video. Unfortunately it doesn't seem like I can link to it (and the graphs that I shared are cut off), so check out the community tab on my channel's page.
you should try fedora linux ubuntu is always gonna be behind compared to fedora. it is a good balance of stability and having up to date software. especially considering intel arc is bleeding edge hardware which should always be using intel's latest drivers
Wow, checked the post on the community too (even though handling the images there is kind of annoying, but still better than nothing I guess). Soo, the results are interesting. In the "doesn't make any sense" way :)) I see that on the Blender page all A770 (not M) results are between 1800 and 2300 points, with the only Linux one being at 1900. 1600 is below, though not by a huge marging. All are using ONEAPI. Is that what you're using too ? Having a better CPU shouldn't help THAT MUCH in this instance. Though I'm just speculating, I don't REALLY know what's happening there. Good luck on the next searches.
Yeah, and every time I run blender I get a new time range of actual rendering. Sometimes it take 45 seconds to render a frame, sometimes it takes 11. Yesterday it took a consistent 14. And yes, I am using oneapi, interesting stuff afoot after the install process if you don’t
Does your A770 constantly blink? Before buying it I saw people claim it was only the HDMI ports, this doesn't seem correct. Every single port on this card does it. Unfortunately I am past the point of return. Kind of regret this card
I haven't experienced any blinking, and I used the HDMI port for the first time a couple of weeks ago. Sorry you're having this experience with your card. You should be covered under Intel's warranty, maybe get in contact with them for an RMA?
@@Winnetou17 I sure have! and that's perfectly acceptable to ask Perhaps I could have been more complete in my post there. :) Sometimes I feel when I add details people skip over them and I try to be a little more 'short handed' as a result

great to see someone using arc for things other than gaming! thanks for the video!
.. and windows.
Went crazy and get a a770 for my good’old x99 (my Chinese x99 has rebar support)

Yep, the problem has been that all the arc compute stuff has been exclusively for Ubuntu and Ubuntu derived distros locked away in an Intel repo.

Could you also test Vulkan-native games, like Doom, Doom Eternal and Rainbow Six Siege (I think the benchmark would run)
Rainbox Six Siege/Ubisoft games doesn’t/don’t work on Linux, the Doom games raster well enough but raytracing doesn’t yet work on Linux w/ Intel Arc.

Hate to be that guy... but for completeness sake, I have to ask: have you tried with multiple cables AND monitors ?

Fedora 40 A770 - no issues
@@Fesovika I wish I could say the same because it's certainly doing fine here aside from the blinking
