I almost bought a similar card earlier this week at a higher price using Zip Pay directly on NewEgg. I couldn't decide between the Acer Bifrost A750 and the A770 for a little more. Both sold out. But with another A750 card at $150, I couldn't pass over it again even if it means installing TikTok.
The A750 will replace my GTX 1650 that can barely keep up with Starfield.
What strange days... I'll have an AMD processor with an Intel GPU! But then again, I've ran Linux on a Macintosh, which is an equally strange combination.
While average performance can be a little better on the A750, Intel's drivers for their first-generation Arc graphics cards are still a bit dodgy, and performance can often fall behind in older games. And that's assuming that the card is going into a newer system that can enable resizable bar in bios, otherwise performance will be worse, with the card losing around a quarter of its performance on average, way more than what you see with cards from AMD and Nvidia.
And as your link points out, Intel's cards have been known to have an issue with high idle power consumption that can potentially make the card notably more expensive to own in the long run. In their example, they measured 35 watts at idle for the A750 versus a mere 4 watts for the Radeon RX 6600. Even most high-end modern cards tend to only draw around 10-15 watts at idle. If the system is left running most of the day, that could increase the cost to own the A750 over the RX6600 by a significant amount each year, potentially by enough over the life of the card to have moved up to a somewhat faster card with more mature drivers, such as the 6650 XT that can be found for around $220.
These deals on Arc cards can potentially make them a decent value, but there are some issues with the first-generation Arc ecosystem that can make the cards a less than ideal option depending on the usage scenario.
Aye, my A770 chugs a bit with Starfield, pulling around 30fps @ 1440p high, but it'll do. 1080p on medium works closer to 60fps, fwiw.
In most of my comparison, the A770 holds up nearly 1:1 with the same games running on my Xbox Series X, while the A750 performs at around the same level as a Series S.

With the newest drivers the A750 routinely trades blows the the RX 6650. A750 has AV1 encoding and better encoding in general due to QuickSync. It has XMX cores for AI work including XeSS upscaling (close to DLSS, better than FSR 2). As more driver updates occur the card should perform even better, as in synthetic benchmarks it shows it has far more room to grow.
Also if people keep giving money to Nvidia and AMD, they will just continue their bad pricing/products knowing they can milk consumers due to a duopoly.

Worth noting that the RX 6600 is on sale for the same price.....that card basically trades blows with the A750 depending on the game, but I'm buying the 6600 because my older CPU/mobo don't fully support resizable BAR, which is a must for the A750.

Different needs I've been on the fence about the Intel cards for a while, but at this point I'm willing to give up some performance for knowing all the games I play (including older titles) will run well.

It's not fanboyism, please do research.

Wattage is now 10-15w idle, still a bit higher than it should be, but nowhere near the original 35w at launch.
I can't imagine spending over $300 on a card out the door. There are some 16GB vram A770's that look pretty good on newegg.
I don't know if Rebar will work or not?
I just want to play. I can use potato settings.
My current Nvidia 970GTX is finally starting to have games tell me that I cannot run them at all...and it has a fan going out.
Can anyone just tell me if my compatibility with that processor in CPU is going to work out okay?
I have some good corsair DDR5 RAM too if that matters.
