Question Thoughts on a Intel Arc B570 GPU

[SEstes71]

Anyone have any input on the Intel Arc GPU's? I'm not to familiar with them and while there are good reviews on them there isn't many. I'm looking at the Intel Arc B570 which being on a tight budget its in my price range ($300). And I don't need a power house of a GPU as I only play World of Warcraft and surf the web and am able to play with rez @1440p with Low to High settings and achieve 100+ fps. After 7 years my 1070 is failing and need to replace it and the Intel Arc is a bit better than the 1070, so any input will be greatly appreciated

Right around an RTX 3060 like performance, a bit faster than an RX7600 at 1440p. So it really depends on the price, and if you happen to play any of the games that Arc has issues with.

Your system is new enough to not worry much about CPU overhead or lack of ReBar, so that is fine.

B580 would of course be the better option if one is available at the right price.

Cool thanks any only play World of Warcraft and being its a more of a CPU heavy game rather than GPU heavy game The Arc should be fine and will look into the B580.

Neweggbusiness currently has some B580's in stock at 299, its more than the msrp of 250, but none of the recently launched cards have been available at MSRP past their initial launches anyway. Other than going to the used market its probably one of the better new deals you can find.

How well do you play using only your integrated graphics?
It may be better than you think.
