I mainly play Valorant and Marvel Rivals. My setup includes an i5-12600KF, Intel Arc A750, ASRock Sonic B760M, and 32GB DDR5 6000. After switching to the B580, I saw no improvement in Valorant—in fact, the 1% low framerate got even worse, making the B580 feel more unstable than the A750. I know Valorant is more CPU-dependent, but I was expecting at least some improvement.
For Marvel Rivals, the average FPS increased from ~140 to ~180. XeSS 2 is still unavailable in this game for now.
I also do some VR gaming, and the performance has improved significantly compared to the A750, which was nearly unusable.
Overall, there's still room for improvement in the drivers, but that's to be expected when buying an Intel GPU. It took them over a year to optimize the A750's drivers. One thing worth mentioning—the B580 is much much lighter than my A750.
Update: In some maps of Marvel Rivals, the color is extremely off, making it's impossible to play. This suggests another issue with the driver.
EDIT: Not sure if you're being sarcastic.

And RX 5700 XT even faster.
P.S. RX 5700 on eBay from $130, half price of Arc B580.
I pulled the trigger on this ARC GPU as I'm curious about what Intel can do, and my 12700K won't have the much-publicized CPU issue. As a bonus, Onix is a sub-brand of the same company that makes Sapphire, so the build quality may be very good. I'm hoping the ARC GPU will work as flawlessly in my Bazzite installation as my old AMD does. I know ARC doesn't do as well in Linux as it does in Windows performance-wise, which is another advantage for AMD.
Anyone with an older CPU, Linux, or PCIe 3.0 should do some research before buying this card, but I'm going for it. If it doesn't work out, I'll be back to AMD.

I think I'm just going to get a 4060 just for the NVENC and Nvidia Greenscreen

Obligatory comment that Intel dGPUs are really hit and miss. On workloads the development team has targeted, they have a tendency to outperform cards costing 50% more. And on workloads that the company has not targeted, the performance lags behind Nvidia and AMD rivals. Power consumption was a huge issue with the A series. While it has dropped, this card still pulls 190W. Great cards for video editing. Can't comment (intelligently) on their use for AI, but Intel had compute sticks for years. So, one would hope that they learned lessons from customer feedback and integrated it into their dPGUs.
From a business standpoint, you have to imagine Intel is still burning money on these. Price cuts to gain market share. Having to rely on TSMC to fab them versus using Intel fabs. Etc.
It's literally not, it's a fair bit faster. Not a huge upgrade in terms of raw performance, but this is positioned as a budget card more on par with the nvidia 4060. It also supports ray tracing and DLSS and has 50% more VRAM, so only comparing raw synthetic benchmark performance doesn't tell the whole story.

This card needs to be another $50 cheaper, else most people are better off with a 4060.
Nvidia cards are just better supported even if it is a tad slower. SteamOS, Gaming profiles, Graphics and video software.
Also better resale value.
