Intel silently outs Arc A310 Desktop Graphics Card with 96 EUs

Intel is releasing an uber entry-level ARC-based A310 graphics card. A310 has 6 Xe-cores (96 execution units) and the same number of ray tracing units as its bigger brother, which is a quarter less in both cases. 



The VRAM capacity is likewise lowered to 4 GB, which is paired with a 64-bit memory bus. The top of 75 watts has not changed. Furthermore, Intel's website claims "up to PCIe 4.0 x16," albeit this most likely refers to eight PCIe 4.0 lanes, as with the A380. Made from a 6 nm ACM-G11 silicon it enables 6 out of 8 Xe Cores (96 of 128 EUs, or 768 of 1,024 unified shaders). You also receive 96 XMX AI accelerator units and 6 ray tracing units. The GPU operates at 2.00 GHz, against 2.10 GHz on the A380. The memory subsystem has been shrunk with 4 GB of 15.5 Gbps GDDR6 memory spread across a 64-bit wide memory interface. A380 has 6 GB of memory spread across a 96-bit memory bus. The card has a PCI-Express 4.0 x8 host interface, and because its usual power is estimated to be considerably under 75 W, most custom cards may not have any power connectors.

If you need some desktop graphics (not gaming) this will enable 4K or 8K HTPC to use with high-resolution monitors. There is no reference board design.
