Intel's own "fine wine". Let's hope they'll get more stuff right from the beginning next time, the market desperately needs some actual competition.

Huh, well the ASRock Challenger model (pretty much the only one available in the US) is clocked at 2250Mhz already, so which cards does this apply to?

The ASRock Challenger is or was Clocked a 2000 now 2150 whatever they did to it I'm running Immortals Fenyx Rising 2560x1440 40+ FPS Maxed out and other games I couldn't run at that res I now can something changed in that card, and it was an amazing one.

More likely driver optimization than frequency changes in your case.

As sold, 2250Mhz. https://www.asrock.com/Graphics-Card/Intel/Intel Arc A380 Challenger ITX 6GB OC/

I have one, but I don't use it for gaming so much, just experiments and media playback. My test platform to see if I will jump on Battlemage when it comes out.

The only ASRock 2000Mhz version was only recently released and is the low-profile one that doesn't require external power.

I don't think the Intel card was ever sold in the US, and we also only recently saw Sparkle and Matrox start selling Intel cards. Acer sells only the large cards.

I may install that driver later and see what happens, would be annoying if it downclocked it to 2150Mhz.

Na bro I see what you're saying but it's an ITX card with a 6-pin connector i got it at launch on Newegg 2000mhz is it.

The Article is great, but no one, also the Author not, have checked the real Clock Speed of the Asrock Cards!
And yes, its an Asrock Card, and not an original Intel Card.


All Asrock Cards are OC Cards and the normal Clock Speed should be higher then a "normal" Intel Card.

Till today, Intel dont show and use the OC Speeds of the Cards.

A380, A770 from Asrock are all working with 2000MHz and 2100MHz, and not with its OC Speeds.



Glad to see, that the A380 from Asrock comes a little closer to its original Speed that she has.



Pls, for future Articles, take a better look at the different Models and Specs



Greetings Dark

8-pin on the model I have. I also bought it at launch, perhaps a regional difference?
