I think not.
There are two reasons why I dont like this card.
1. AAA title games at 1920x1080 max/ultra setting would use 9GB~11GB of VRAM in 2025. And this card only got 10GB, in a year or two, it will be like the 8GB VRAM cards today. FPS would drop hard when the game wants to use more than what a card can offer. And Intel replaced its CEO, the current CEO doesn't care about gaming, he only cares about server & AI. The driver support will be in a very questionable status.
2. Even the B580 12GB is a bit slow. But if you can get B580 for $250, it may still be a better option than B570 10GB at $220~$230.
Or if you can get Arc B50 16GB at $350; B50 is really a "B570 performance + extra VRAM + no need PCI-E power cable" card.
BUT!!! there is no GPU/card is at its MSRP, so if this is what you can get or what you can pay, then yeah, buy this. The other option is the used RTX 3060 12GB. The issue with used GPU is that you dont know if a person used it to mine Crypto ETH or other things and may die soon.
If you are somewhat behind on your catalog, this is a good card. It should handle 4-5-year old games without trouble at 1080 and even 1440 on high. But your frame rate expectations should not exceed 60.

For the price, no. Performance of a 1080 Ti or base 3060, but with some game issues and realistically EOL on support, since Arc is cancelled for desktop (though Intel still claims otherwise publicly). Would be reasonable around $125-150, if you are sure your PC supports ReBAR.
I think not.

Its funny when people pretend "AAA" + year = anything when it comes to how hard it is on a GPU or how much VRAM it uses. That's not how it works. By your logic Cyberpunk 2077 should be a cakewalk to run since that came out in 2020.
Not to mention, the Arc series aren't even primarily gaming cards. You'd be better off with a (not considering price) 8GB AMD or Nvidia over an Arc any day of the week in terms of performance verses worrying about 10GB here.
And what made you think this person would even be worried about the latest cutting edge AAA gaming and demanding 1440p in all ultra...demanding several years of future proofing at the same time? Their question of "is this good" suggests a very casual user. If I went to a car dealer and someone was shopping for a Honda Civic, I likely wouldn't assume they were planning to enter a Formula 1 race with it.
FWIW, all of your yardsticks are way off base, thus so are the conclusions you are drawing from them. I do agree with your assessment of Intel's likely poor support for their cards rolling forward. Again, this isn't a gaming focused card but they appear to be lowering their overall focus for their GPU lines, across all use cases.

10GB is fine for a card of this level. You don't need to max out every setting on the latest AAA game. I'm not saying more vram isn't nice or that you shouldn't buy something with more ram. But just that using 2025 AAA games at max ultra setting as the benchmark to judge a budget card isn't useful.
