What you need to know
Intel recently shared benchmarks of its Arc A750 GPU, which is set to compete with thebest graphics cardsfrom NVIDIA and AMD. Specifically, Intel stacked up its Arc A750 against theNVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060while running 48 different titles. The Arc A750 outperformed the RTX 3060 when powering some of thebest PC gamesand lagged behind NVIDIA’s offering for other titles.
Fortnite, Call of Duty Vanguard, Gears 5, and Dirt 5 are just some of the titles tested by Intel to show off the Arc A750. Intel fellow Tom Petersen explained that the titles were chosen due to popularity, not to inflate benchmarks. Of course, independent testing will be needed to verify Intel’s findings.
Petersen highlighted that the Arc A750 is, on average, 3-5% better than the RTX 3060 when running at 1080p. He also cited that Intel’s GPU outperformed NVIDIA’s by an average of 5% when running at 1440p.
Intel’s tests were run on PCs with anIntel Core i9-12900Kand 32GB of DDR5 memory. That Core i9-12900K chip earned a perfect 5/5 in our review last November.
While these benchmarks are impressive, they aren’t as meaningful as they could be since some key information is missing. We still don’t have a price for the Intel Arc A750, and the GPU isn’t available for independent reviewers to try out.
We also don’t have exact specifications at this time, though reports suggest that the Arc A750 will have 24 Xe cores, 3,072 shaders, and 12GB of GDDR6 memory (viaTom’s Hardware).
The NVIDIA RTX 3060 retails at $329. Leaked slides suggest that the Intel Arc A750 could cost $329 (viaTechSpot). The Intel Arc A750 is expected to ship later this year.
