In a new video (opens in new tab) on its YouTube channel, Intel has shared recent benchmarks of the chipmaker’s upcoming Arc A750 Restricted Version graphics card. Based on Intel’s 1080p and 1440p outcomes, the Arc A750’s efficiency is on the identical degree as Nvidia’s GeForce RTX 3060, one of many finest graphics playing cards.
The cumulative outcomes declare that the Arc A750 delivered as much as 3% larger efficiency than the GeForce RTX 3060 at 1080p and as much as 5% in 1440p throughout 43 DirectX 12 titles. The Arc A750 carried out barely sooner than the GeForce RTX 3060 in video games that use the Vulkan API as nicely. Intel recorded as much as a 4% efficiency delta at 1080p and 5% in 1440p in favor of the Arc A750.
Intel hasn’t formally revealed the specs for the Arc A750. Nonetheless, the graphics card will doubtless include 24 Xe cores, 3,072 shaders, and 12GB of GDDR6 reminiscence throughout a 192-bit interface. As well as, the enhance clock velocity most likely hovers across the 2,300 MHz mark. In the meantime, Intel used EVGA’s GeForce RTX 3060 XC Gaming for comparability, one of many sooner customized GeForce RTX 3060 in the marketplace, flaunting a 1,882 MHz enhance clock.
Intel benchmarked the Arc A750 and GeForce RTX 3060 similar techniques powered by the Core i9-12900K, the present Alder Lake flagship. The testbeds additionally had 32GB of (2x16GB) Corsair Dominator Platinum RGB DDR5-5200 C38 downlocked to 4,800 MHz reminiscence, MP600 Professional XT 4TB SSD. Intel used Home windows 11 and the steadiness energy plan for the checks.
One factor to notice is that the Arc A750 was on Intel’s engineering driver, whereas the GeForce RTX 3060 used the GeForce 516.59 WHQL driver. Arc Alchemist’s drivers are nonetheless a piece in course of, in order that might be holding the Arc A750 again within the gaming benchmarks. Intel has admitted that Arc underperforms in older APIs, so the corporate solely used DirectX 12 and Vulkan titles.
Intel nonetheless has quite a lot of time to get its driver act collectively. The corporate hasn’t dedicated to a particular timeframe for desktop Arc Alchemist’s launch. Nonetheless, the chipmaker acknowledged in a latest weblog put up (opens in new tab), “Intel Arc GPUs are scheduled for launch later this yr.”
