Powered by the new Xe2 "Battlemage" architecture and a new XeSS 2 frame generation feature, Intel's $249 Arc B580 is FINALLY bringing 1440p gaming to the masses.
Itd be real nice if they can kick Nvidia in the balls with this, Nvidia prices are batshit crazy for any level of GPU these days.
18I wonder if/hope they will release a 16 GB model like the A770. I got one of those on ebay for $180 on a lark and it's really not bad. I put it in a dedicated media/gaming PC connected to my TV.
11How does it do on older games, I heard from unreliable sources that the intel GPUs are very hit and miss if you only play old games
4By the time I got it I think most of the driver issues had been ironed out. I did have some trouble with a couple of games running on Linux with Proton, but those same games worked fine on Windows. I think there are some kinks to work out still with dxvk. It is possible that I just never tried one of these problematic games, though.
