So, Intel’s not tapping out on this whole Battlemage gig just yet. Nope, they’ve got one more card up their sleeve, and it’s something that might shake up the mainstream GPU party. I guess we’re all supposed to be on our toes now, huh?
Okay, let’s rewind a bit — or forward? Time is confusing. Anyway, Intel’s tossing their hat back into the ring with a new kid on the block: the Arc B770. Apparently, it might debut as soon as next quarter, if the whispers from our friends over in Japan are anything to go by. I know, right? It’s like trying to predict the weather. Crazy stuff.
So, what’s the scoop? Intel’s pace with new GPUs is like, not exactly breaking the sound barrier compared to AMD and NVIDIA. But hey, they’re committed. Back in the misty lands of Q4 2024, they dropped the Arc B570 and B580, which were… alright? They did the job, let’s put it that way. Now, with everyone yabbering about AMD’s RX 9060 series and NVIDIA’s RTX 5060 line, Intel’s got some catching up to do. Or maybe they don’t – who even knows?
Anyway — wait, am I rambling? So, the juicy bits come from this Japanese site, Gazlog. They spied the BMG-G31 chip on some shipping document. No idea why anyone digs through those, but hey, respect. This little silicon beauty’s headed to Vietnam, the land of tasty pho and, apparently, Intel’s secret GPU lab. They churn out limited editions there, which is possibly code for “exclusive and shiny.”
Jumping to next point — (is that the right transition? Probably not), some known leaker, OneRaichu, backs up this B770 buzz. Says we’ll see it soon. Apparently, this B770 beast might rock 24-32 Xe2 cores, a 256-bit memory bus, and 16 GB of GDDR6. Will it also make coffee? No clue. They might even use this chip for AI stuff. Science fiction is now, folks.
Oh, and Computex 2025 is around the corner. I’m guessing Intel might unleash this thing there. Red carpets for GPUs? Why not. I’ll be there, soaking it all in or maybe just grabbing snacks — depends on the mood. Anyhow, whether Intel’s planning a grand reveal or just a whisper, it’ll be fun to watch. Stay tuned? Nah, just keep your expectations balanced. Life advice, that.
