When Intel has fun proving to us that in the field of Graphic cardhe has more than one string to his bow.
For once, difficult to accuse Intel of having lacked responsiveness. Two days after the publication of a photo of the Arc A750 graphics card which we had never heard of before, Intel has indeed confirmed the existence of the beast.
Superior to the GeForce RTX 3060?
Intel has even proved to be surprisingly talkative when we are starting to get impatient: Arc graphics cards for so-called “desktop” PCs have been expected for several months and the American is slow to communicate a firm release date.
It will not be for this one, even if it must be admitted that the information remains interesting. First, we learn that this Arc A750 model is based around the ACM-G10 GPU and that, according to Intel, it should be able to deliver significantly higher performance than the GeForce RTX 3060.
A positioning that makes sense insofar as the most high-end model – the Arc A770 – is more or less placed opposite the GeForce RTX 3070 from NVIDIA. To support his statements and through the voice of Ryan Shrout, marketing manager, Intel presented various video game results.
Output ” during the summer »
Five rather recent games were used by Intel, which retained a “high” level of detail and an image definition of 2,560 x 1,440 in its tests. It was therefore a question of using Borderlands 3, control, Cyberpunk 2077, F1 2021 and finally, Fortnite.
Intel also specifies that the two graphics cards have logically been tested in a similar environment based on the ASUS ROG Maximus Z690 Hero motherboard, Intel Core i9-12900K processor, 32 GB of DDR5-4800 and a Corsair MP600 Pro SSD. XT 4 TB. The configuration ran under Windows 11 Pro.
Under such conditions, we note that the Arc A750 guarantees an interesting level of performance with an average of 59.88 images per second on Cyberpunk 2077 when the RTX 3060 has to make do with 52.47 fps. The difference is a little larger on Borderlands 3 with 76.43 fps versus 67.29 fps and similar on control (64.58 fps vs. 56.88 fps).
Through the video, Ryan Shrout specifies that the Arc A750 must be released ” during the summer “, but we will not know more for the moment. It might be time to end the running gag at Intel?
