I Have GREAT News for GPUs In a recent YouTube video titled "I Have GREAT News for GPUs," the excitement in the PC gaming community is palpable as new pricing details for Intel's latest GPUs have been unveiled. This could mark a significant shift in the competitive landscape of graphics cards, particularly benefiting entry to mid-level gamers. The video begins by announcing that Intel's new Arc A750 and A770 GPUs will be available starting October 12, coinciding with the much-anticipated launch of the RTX 4090. The A750 has a starting price of $289, while the A770 will start at $329, making these options accessible for gamers looking for quality performance without breaking the bank. The limited edition A770 will retail for $349 .

Key Specs of Intel GPUs​

  • Arc A750:
    • Shaders: 448
    • Graphics Clock: 2050 MHz
    • Memory: 8 GB GDDR6 (16 Gbps)
    • Memory Bandwidth: 512 GB/s
    • Power Consumption: 225 watts
  • Arc A770 (Limited Edition):
    • Execution Units: 512
    • Graphics Clock: 2100 MHz
    • Memory: 16 GB GDDR6 (17.5 Gbps)
    • Memory Bandwidth: 560 GB/s
    • Power Consumption: 225 watts Both GPUs will also include three DisplayPort 2.0 outputs, a feature that even the high-end RTX 4090 lacks. This move could be crucial for gamers looking to utilize high-refresh-rate 4K displays .

      Impact on the GPU Market​

      The introduction of Intel's GPUs signifies a much-needed third competitor in the graphics card market, challenging the long-standing AMD and Nvidia duopoly. The video emphasizes the importance of this development, particularly in the budget segment, which has seen rising prices with minimal gains in performance over the past few years. Intel's pricing strategy reveals a favorable comparison against the incumbent RTX 3060, potentially offering better value for money if driver issues can be resolved post-launch .

      RTX 4090 Update​

      The video also touches on the anticipated RTX 4090, highlighting how several models are expected to be sold at MSRP, which offers a ray of hope compared to the inflated prices seen with the previous generation. The listing on Newegg shows multiple models priced around $1600, with only a few straying into the higher price brackets. This is a promising sign that despite the high initial cost, consumers may not face the same supply issues and price gouging that plagued earlier GPU releases .
