Intel's Arc A580 is a new $179 budget graphics card that looks mostly D.O.A

Why bother with the A580 when you can pick up the bigger, better Arc A750 for $190?

In the current market, the A580 doesn’t look to be very attractive, compared to other intel gpus.

But something very interesting is 8GB of vram at under 200$. In this market where nvidia puts all the vram in AI gpus, it’s a nice number to see.

Hopefully intel battlemage (next intel gen) can disrupt the market with true competition.

    A sub $200 card with AV1 encoding/decoding does sound like an interesting possiblity.

      There’s already the A380 for like $100 and apparently there’s an A310 for around that price as well. They don’t perform very well for gaming though, the A3A80 is a bit worse than an RX 580 afaik.
