Thanks OP.

I have my eyes on this earlier and it's more pricey at Amazon.
I'm in need of a budget and decent card so I placed an order. Upgrading from RTX 1070 and building a new computer, so I hope this will serve me well with my limited budget.

Anyone knows anything to overclock or playing around with boosting it up? This is my first AMD card. Many thanks!

I think the Arc A770 16GB (small price difference for double RAM) and A580 are interesting in theory. In practice, Intel can't be trusted to support the products.

A380 performance is pretty weak even without driver problems, only the 6 GB VRAM is nice. A310 could be a good replacement for the GT 1030, having AV1 decode/encode and display outputs.

Not sure what's with the weird intel bias in this thread. The reputable reviewers are not recommending the new Intel cards over what AMD is offering in the same price bracket:

Hardware Unboxed:

Gamers Nexus:

Best to wait until AMD announces their new cards, but it will likely be cards in the $500+ range with lower range cards coming later.

I think it is the sour grapes from getting price gouged for years by Nvidia and AMD. A third party is definitely needed.

I'd agree though, the reviews don't look great until the software gets better. Although I was surprised and curious as to why Gamers Nexus completely ignored ray tracing in it's review.

I'm actually pretty excited about Intel going forward. They created a pretty decent early attempt that is only subpar due to what appears to be horrific optimization. Once they fine tune things a bit, they will at some point create a competitive product. Assuming they stick with it.

All that said...definitely still holding the line. My old 1070 is still going strong enough for now.

Keep in mind that software might need to be optimized in order to make the most out of the hardware... Patches for games etc. that make for better Intel Arc compatibility

Quote from Anthonyy232 :
not true based on recent videos
Actually its pretty true look at Gamers Nexus and Linus Techtips. The only thing Intel cards are good for right now are modern games and video encoding. But the cards itself compared with last gens cards looked pretty weak when it comes to older stuff. However I don't want them to fail because the more competition we are having the better prices we will see.
