Important note; as JayzTwoCents pointed out you NEED a CPU that supports either Resizable Bar (intel) or Smart Acces Memory (AMD) as well as the current latest Windows 10 build or newer (like win11) to enable it
Even though I’m all AMD. Those reference model Arc cards looking really good with the clean look and the way they did the rgb. I hope the 770 at least competes and Intel doesn’t give up on gpus. Having another competitor in the space is a win.
Can't wait for the Phoronix benchmarks. If the Vulkan and compute performance is good, this thing could be rather compelling for Linux users at that price point. Also, dxvk and vkd3d run on Windows, so that might be interesting to look into.
Considering that intel's linux support is unmatched with AMD coming somewhat close, and Nvidia being well... Nvidia, I'm actually legitimately interested at Intel as a legitimate gaming option for Linux compared to AMD and Nvidia
Feels good to me, sounds like this card’s performance will get better over time if theyre able to further develop the drivers optimization as mentioned. Also looks pretty slick and sounds reasonably priced coming out of the gpu graphics mining wars
Pretty certain that unless they axe it (again) within 2-3 generations, we will be looking at proper competition. Also, seeing where things are going with nVidia, it wouldnt be all that bad to have budget cards, that are not all that good, but are cheap in comparison. I would upgrade my 2070 to a card that performs like current 3080 for the right price, even if it means its from intel. For as long as it works well with PCVR!
This is definitely one of the best-looking GPUs I've seen, the pricing of the lineup is reasonable, and the Linux support is likely to be pretty good. If the drivers improve, I'm probably going to buy one of these used in a few years.
I'm super excited about these. Especially after seeing that they're targeting the budget market, since AMD and especially NVIDIA have kinda' screwed over this generation. Now... I don't need anything in this price range but I think I might buy a couple just to mess around with. Plus, I dig the EVGA GTX 7xx/9xx ish look.
@@screwb1882 They absolutely are targeting the budget market, because yes... they have no other choice because they greatly missed their original launch window. If you think I'm implying benevolence, I'm certainly not.
@@jesusbarrera6916 I guess you missed their pricing. Seems they don't have much of a choice. Their top of the line will soon be pretty entry level compared to AMD and NVIDIA. Not to mention that they're not really usable on systems without re-bar support. Then we can get into all of the cheap used options you can get right now that don't need re-bar.
When you guys do your review testing, I would love to see a quality comparison with Intel Arc vs Intel quick sync Plex transcoding performance. Really want to see how well these perform. Quality of transcode as well as number of transcodes :)
Even if it's not as top-of-the-line as some Nvidia and AMD cards, it's a start and an extra competitor is welcome to the GPU market. I'm glad for Intel. I've wanted an Intel GPU that properly works since the Larrabee days, and now we have just that.
Honestly I'm thinking that this is gonna be pretty good, or at least interesting. $329 for about rtx 3060 performance, but possibly up to like 3070 with future driver updates makes it seem like a good investment. Also, the av1 encoder is incredibly cool and will be interesting to see what it can do
I just want that look but with a 7700XT or 7800XT when those comes out as it looks so much better than your typical gaudy 3rd party designs, it's just nice, simple, and clean with very tastefully done RGB.
I actually really like the aesthetic of these gpu's. It's so nice and clean. I hope Intel stays in the gpu market until at least their next iteration, I actually really want them to succeed!
I wonder how this will handle CAD workloads (solidworks, fusion 360, autocad, ect.). My radeon vii is working pretty well, but I'm interested in upgrades to my system, the GPU being a maybe.
*Definitely* am looking forward to the full benchmarks on this card! Judging by the hardware spec's, it seems like Intel's drivers are leaving a *LOT* of performance on the table. I wonder if you came back in 6 or 12 months and re-tested this same cards with the newest drivers at that time, if you'd get numbers more in line with the nVidia 3070.
Displayport specifies the bandwidth per lane because you may not always be using 4 lanes. If you're using a USB-C dock with dp alt mode, half the lanes may be used for regular USB leaving only 2 for DP. Or if you're using Thunderbolt you might have 8 lanes.
Based on your comments about the wattage etc it would be amazing if they have some sort of driver epiphany and unlock more performance. Sounds like there are other hardware issues that might make that impossible though.
They'd receive a lot of support if they make the drivers open source. Modders and the Linux community would love to tinker and fix a lot of bugs and bring Intel up to speed with the rest.
nice card! it is a first gen product. what do you expect. as long as it is affordable it is fine. i like the looks of the arc founders edition more than either amds or nvidias founders editions. if they are new to it maybe drivers improve and we get free performance in the future just like on amd cards. if xess doesnt work that well we can just use amds fsr.
The ONLY thing stopping me from getting on this train is the lack of any freesync/gsync like compatibility. If I go team green or team red, my monitor will interact with my GPU to gave me smoother gameplay. If I switch I can almost guarantee micro-stutters
I cannot stress enough how important it is to have proper two-slot graphic cards. I really hope Intel will succeed and continue down this way. I don't need 3 to 4 slot gpu's for my build.
I know its a silly thing but i really wish they had made the power ports 2 full size 8pins, even if the last 2 are dummy ports with no connectors just so we could use 2 full 8pin cables for a balanced aesthetic (and why is one port glossy dark black and the other flat and more grey?)
The 16gb of vram at such a low price on the A770 seriously makes this a good contender compared to the 3060 / 3070 or even 4060 / 4070. It costs intel very little to add that extra vram, yet it means these gpus are better in a lot of ways compared to current gen nvidia gpus that are much more expensive (at least in UK). Ive really been considering getting the Intel nuc 12 enthusiast, because of the A770 GPU and 12th gen i7 with 32gb of RAM and 1tb samsung ssd costing only £1200 at the moment.
Im so excited about these things. Finally a legitimate second vendor for Linux users. And with how WINE and DXVK work now days the older DX preformance shouldn't be a problem.
AV1 aka TH-cam compression has but one fatal flaw that I don't think is being talked about enough: It absolutely shits the bed when it comes to displaying leafless foliage. It simply can't deal with the high amount of high-contrast edges.
We are witnessing history being made now, unfortunately I dont have plan to update for at least another year, but I am still really excited for this! As long as this card is stable enough for daily use, we can already call this a win, cant wait for the full review
I'm going to get one of these ARC GPUs even if it isn't the greatest GPU in the world performance wise I think it would be awesome to have a small all Intel build to go with my budget all AMD build.
I'm excited for Intel to get into the GPU game. I really hope they stick with it and don't give up! Gonna take some tweaking and retweaking, etc. But dang, these cards just look amazing and I'd love to see a completely white version in the future!
What’s stopping them from putting thunderbolt on a gpu so that you can use it as an external gpu with just a power supply? There are little boards you can get that just have pcie and thunderbolt connections
4:33 Some of the 4000 series 3'd party cards have already announced the use of standard PCI-E connectors. Seems like a GOOD thing given the issues with melting and occasional FIRE that "16 pin" Nvidia reference connector is having.
If drivers gets much better this thing is gonna get very tempting. But it also has another strong weak point, it's fairly hard to make maintanance to it as there are more than 50 screws and several connectors to be disconnected
Aesthetics of the whole card aside, and when installed you won't notice it, but those different colors of plastic on the 6pin and 8pin are driving my inner monk crazy! I think you people at LMG will understand, considering the effort you're making with your products to NOT have such flaws.

I really wish Intel the best. And I'm more interested in seeing the A750 personally.
Feels good to me, sounds like this card’s performance will get better over time if theyre able to further develop the drivers optimization as mentioned. Also looks pretty slick and sounds reasonably priced coming out of the gpu graphics mining wars
Wow, awesome to see these come to market finally
Pretty certain that unless they axe it (again) within 2-3 generations, we will be looking at proper competition. Also, seeing where things are going with nVidia, it wouldnt be all that bad to have budget cards, that are not all that good, but are cheap in comparison. I would upgrade my 2070 to a card that performs like current 3080 for the right price, even if it means its from intel. For as long as it works well with PCVR!
This is definitely one of the best-looking GPUs I've seen, the pricing of the lineup is reasonable, and the Linux support is likely to be pretty good. If the drivers improve, I'm probably going to buy one of these used in a few years.
Don't forget resizable bar is required (to get it to run as expected anyway)
I'm super excited about these. Especially after seeing that they're targeting the budget market, since AMD and especially NVIDIA have kinda' screwed over this generation. Now... I don't need anything in this price range but I think I might buy a couple just to mess around with. Plus, I dig the EVGA GTX 7xx/9xx ish look.
They aren't targeting the budget market. They failed so badly they have to sell the cards at below cost.
@@screwb1882 They absolutely are targeting the budget market, because yes... they have no other choice because they greatly missed their original launch window. If you think I'm implying benevolence, I'm certainly not.
@@TheGameBench they can't have their top of the line targeting the budget market....
@@jesusbarrera6916 I guess you missed their pricing. Seems they don't have much of a choice. Their top of the line will soon be pretty entry level compared to AMD and NVIDIA. Not to mention that they're not really usable on systems without re-bar support. Then we can get into all of the cheap used options you can get right now that don't need re-bar.
@@TheGameBench so like the guy said.... they are selling below cost
Pushing continued improvements for older apis is going to be very important for Intel
When you guys do your review testing, I would love to see a quality comparison with Intel Arc vs Intel quick sync Plex transcoding performance.
Really want to see how well these perform.
Quality of transcode as well as number of transcodes :)
I too would like to see that in the benchmarks, though it begs the question of whether Plex supports av1?
@@benwu7980 yes it dose.
I know their are some av1 encoding test from Intel and such like that. But ya know first party benchmarks
This please ❤🎉
Even if it's not as top-of-the-line as some Nvidia and AMD cards, it's a start and an extra competitor is welcome to the GPU market. I'm glad for Intel. I've wanted an Intel GPU that properly works since the Larrabee days, and now we have just that.
The physical aesthetics of these cards are clean.
Honestly I'm thinking that this is gonna be pretty good, or at least interesting. $329 for about rtx 3060 performance, but possibly up to like 3070 with future driver updates makes it seem like a good investment. Also, the av1 encoder is incredibly cool and will be interesting to see what it can do
But with 3080 tis for $400 and 3090s if you’re lucky, is it worth it?
@@velqt lol where do you see a 3080 for 400$????
@@rpgfeatures793 on ebay lol
@@velqt wuuuuut
@@velqt That second hand lol, in Australia it's $1200-$1800, for a 3080
I just want that look but with a 7700XT or 7800XT when those comes out as it looks so much better than your typical gaudy 3rd party designs, it's just nice, simple, and clean with very tastefully done RGB.
I really like that it seems to be just a 2 slot. Will be nice in some builds.
This has got to be a super good looking GPU, up there with the Founders 30 series
Never thought I'd be stoked for more intel stuff in the PC market. I have the 3060, so I'm stoked to see them compete.
It looks SOOO good, I hope it runs good for the price.
I actually really like the aesthetic of these gpu's. It's so nice and clean. I hope Intel stays in the gpu market until at least their next iteration, I actually really want them to succeed!
The Design is absolutely amazing!
I am so glad that we finally done with the days the good gpu cost over 1000$
I'm super excited to see the AV1 encoding comparisons. I expect the best from you guys!
Card design looks clean and classy. I hope it performs well. I'm not going to consider them for a personal build until the C770
I forgot it's a short circuit for a moment and freaked out .....omg a single ad ?????????
Now, this is a true RGB competition!
When Anthony does a performance review, do a side by side with Windows and Linux to see who works best :)
I wonder how this will handle CAD workloads (solidworks, fusion 360, autocad, ect.). My radeon vii is working pretty well, but I'm interested in upgrades to my system, the GPU being a maybe.
I’m really hoping labs will make it so we can get ask this info in a table even if not used in video
I love that you grab your keys to short the switch to turn on the system.
*Definitely* am looking forward to the full benchmarks on this card! Judging by the hardware spec's, it seems like Intel's drivers are leaving a *LOT* of performance on the table. I wonder if you came back in 6 or 12 months and re-tested this same cards with the newest drivers at that time, if you'd get numbers more in line with the nVidia 3070.
If only we could buy it! It is out of stock everywhere.
I think one of the most exciting things about the Arc gpus is the (relatively) slim form factor!
not really, 3080ti fe is similar in size but 1.5x-2x the perf.
very hype for these, i hope they release with no major issues
Personally I'm really excited to see what's coming. Great to see Intel doing descrete GPUs, also they look really nice.
I've been waiting for Intel Arc since 2017 :)
The new Intel cards definitely LOOK the best out of all the GPUs currently. Its sexy.
Displayport specifies the bandwidth per lane because you may not always be using 4 lanes. If you're using a USB-C dock with dp alt mode, half the lanes may be used for regular USB leaving only 2 for DP. Or if you're using Thunderbolt you might have 8 lanes.
Based on your comments about the wattage etc it would be amazing if they have some sort of driver epiphany and unlock more performance. Sounds like there are other hardware issues that might make that impossible though.
They'd receive a lot of support if they make the drivers open source. Modders and the Linux community would love to tinker and fix a lot of bugs and bring Intel up to speed with the rest.
nice card! it is a first gen product. what do you expect. as long as it is affordable it is fine. i like the looks of the arc founders edition more than either amds or nvidias founders editions. if they are new to it maybe drivers improve and we get free performance in the future just like on amd cards. if xess doesnt work that well we can just use amds fsr.
I really wanna see the AV1 encoder at work. I feel like even the 380 will be amazing for a streaming pc just for that encoder alone
calling it now, they're gonna have a nine series at some point
The ONLY thing stopping me from getting on this train is the lack of any freesync/gsync like compatibility. If I go team green or team red, my monitor will interact with my GPU to gave me smoother gameplay. If I switch I can almost guarantee micro-stutters
I cannot stress enough how important it is to have proper two-slot graphic cards.
I really hope Intel will succeed and continue down this way. I don't need 3 to 4 slot gpu's for my build.
Yeah, getting old games running well is very important to me. I'm skeptical.. but we'll see.
I know its a silly thing but i really wish they had made the power ports 2 full size 8pins, even if the last 2 are dummy ports with no connectors just so we could use 2 full 8pin cables for a balanced aesthetic (and why is one port glossy dark black and the other flat and more grey?)
The 16gb of vram at such a low price on the A770 seriously makes this a good contender compared to the 3060 / 3070 or even 4060 / 4070. It costs intel very little to add that extra vram, yet it means these gpus are better in a lot of ways compared to current gen nvidia gpus that are much more expensive (at least in UK).
Ive really been considering getting the Intel nuc 12 enthusiast, because of the A770 GPU and 12th gen i7 with 32gb of RAM and 1tb samsung ssd costing only £1200 at the moment.
The moment you placed the Arc stand thing flat...i keep hearing a humming noise from it :S
For real, thanks Intel for continuing to try despite failure after failure.
That's more than I can say for Google.
I'm actually more excited for this card than I thought I would be. This could be a generation defining moment.
th-cam.com/video/N371iMe_nfA/w-d-xo.html - still excited?
Loving the new ShortCircuit background set, looking very nice with their logo and the Cyberpunk PC case.
Video idea: DXVK (converts DirectX
that neon light is sick! Nvidia could include smth like this too for how much they are charging
Intel's first attemp at a dedicated GPU is amaizing! Now please buy them all so they don't quite from these negative reviewers.
I really want an A770 to go with my 6800 and 3070...but I wanted an AR more lol. Maybe battlemage will happen and I can go that route.
Im so excited about these things. Finally a legitimate second vendor for Linux users. And with how WINE and DXVK work now days the older DX preformance shouldn't be a problem.
And you, young GPU. We will watch your career with great interest!
It's a beautiful card. Looks like a really nice car. Those graphic drivers though, they still need a lot of work.
I love its subtle and sleek design aesthetic
Spotting that Nerd Forge cyberpunk PC in the background. Glad LTT decided to hold onto it.
AV1 aka TH-cam compression has but one fatal flaw that I don't think is being talked about enough:
It absolutely shits the bed when it comes to displaying leafless foliage. It simply can't deal with the high amount of high-contrast edges.
With the hardware being so much above a 3060, does it mean that future driver updates could unlock more performance?
One of these is going to look soooo good in a matte black build
This actually looks like a graphics card and not a spaceship
We are witnessing history being made now, unfortunately I dont have plan to update for at least another year, but I am still really excited for this! As long as this card is stable enough for daily use, we can already call this a win, cant wait for the full review
Glad to have them on board now. 👏👏👏👏👏
I'll be honest I'm planning on making a build in December, and the A770 is looking mighty attractive for it's price range.
I'm going to get one of these ARC GPUs even if it isn't the greatest GPU in the world performance wise I think it would be awesome to have a small all Intel build to go with my budget all AMD build.
I'm excited for Intel to get into the GPU game. I really hope they stick with it and don't give up! Gonna take some tweaking and retweaking, etc. But dang, these cards just look amazing and I'd love to see a completely white version in the future!
Can we get some sick motivational tunes in the background this is astounding coming from intel, bravo! 🎉👏
Can't wait to see R G and B colour boxes on the retail shelf
i am glad you guys put the cyber punk computer in the background
I wonder if continuous driver updates for this GPU will result in a steady increase in performance, right up to near 3070 performance levels?
What’s stopping them from putting thunderbolt on a gpu so that you can use it as an external gpu with just a power supply? There are little boards you can get that just have pcie and thunderbolt connections
Yes to the vibrant colors. Yes, Yes, YES. Keep it on this channel.
When are they lifting the benchmark embargo?
I'm excited for it. If I can walk into a store to buy one I'll definitely pick one up. If I have to fight online bots to get one I'll pass

Some of the 4000 series 3'd party cards have already announced the use of standard PCI-E connectors.
Seems like a GOOD thing given the issues with melting and occasional FIRE that "16 pin" Nvidia reference connector is having.
If drivers gets much better this thing is gonna get very tempting.
But it also has another strong weak point, it's fairly hard to make maintanance to it as there are more than 50 screws and several connectors to be disconnected
Aesthetics of the whole card aside, and when installed you won't notice it, but those different colors of plastic on the 6pin and 8pin are driving my inner monk crazy!
I think you people at LMG will understand, considering the effort you're making with your products to NOT have such flaws.
Is it just me or does this video have nicer colours than most LMG content?
