Really hope this trend keeps up! I’ve been skeptical of Intel for years now, with their ever changing CPU sockets, and them leaving in known (to them) vulnerabilities just so they can squeeze more performance out of their chips. I’d planned on moving over to AMD entirely for my next build, but given how rocky this last generation of AMD and NVidia GPUs have been, coupled with the absolutely insane pricing these past few years I’ve more or less decided to give Arc a go.

Looking forward to the next gen. With good performance, their pricing is very solid. Nice to see another competitor in the game!

RandomgaminginHD did a great video on the low end ARK card and for the price, the performance is actually amazing now that drivers have gotten good. Glad to see they’ve made good progress and I hope to switch to Intel GPU when I need an upgrade.

Does anyone happen to know if the Pro versions will include SR-IOV, or if the consumer version does?

I hope Arc GPUs translate into better laptop iGPUs eventually

do they work on Linux without additional driver installs?
