tweaktown Intel ARC Alchemist high-end GPU: 16GB of GDDR6, 8+6-pin PCIe power

[ENTERPRISE]

  Quote

MLID is reporting that there will be at least 3 different Intel ARC Alchemist GPUs launching next year: one with 512 EUs, another with 384 EUs, and another with 128 EUs -- EUs being Execution Units. Each of the cards should have varying levels of GDDR6 memory.

 

The high-end Intel ARC Alchemist with 512 EUs will reportedly have 16GB of GDDR6 memory at 16Gbps, although we could see this ramped up to 18Gbps but this hasn't been confirmed yet. Board power-wise we're looking at this card requiring 8+6-pin PCIe power connectors and a 225W TDP.

I think the more important question will be "Can Intel's discrete card play Crisis?" If they're finally playing with the other kids in game performance then LOOK OUT!

Which means it will be a compute powerhouse, but suck at gaming.
