When is the Intel Arc A770 coming? First hints from the internet [Gerücht]

The Intel Arc A770 is the model from the Alchemist journey that avid gamers have been waiting for the most. And it takes the longest time. Intel was always nebulous when it came to release dates. But the rumor mill now wants data. Accordingly, an “unboxing” is planned for September 30 at 9:00 a.m. EDT (3:00 p.m. CEST); the test embargo, meanwhile, is scheduled to be on October 5th at 09:00 EDT (15:00 CEST). The dates could fall within the framework of Intel Innovation, which will take place in San Jose on 27-28. takes place in September. So it would be just about two weeks until the mid-range card is at least revealed. When it will be sold is still unclear. According to CEO Pat Gelsinger, the first batch is already on the market.

After Nvidia’s rather high-priced models, Intel should be something for the budget of gamers who don’t want to spend four-digit sums. And it is currently also hoped that AMD will also keep prices in the range of what is bearable for the majority at the beginning of November. Intel had at least announced that it would find a competitive pricing structure. For this you have to make one or the other smear with the driver.

The Arc A770 is to come onto the market in two versions: According to the latest information, the ACM-G10 has 4,096 shaders with a 2.1 GHz clock and either 8 or 16 GiByte memory of the GDDR6 type on a 256-bit wide memory interface. The modules have a speed of 17.5 or 16.0 Gb/s, which would result in a transfer rate of 560 or 512 GB/s. Both cards, like the Arc A750, which is also based on the ACM-G10, should have 225 watts TBP (Total Board Power). To put this in perspective, on paper this should end up between a Geforce RTX 3060 ($329) and 3060 Ti ($399), which have 3,584 and 4,864 shaders, respectively, clocking around 1.7 GHz and offering 12 GiB of memory.
