Despite a rocky start, Intel’s Arc GPUs are now among the best graphics cards you can buy.

Targeting budget PC gamers, Intel has established itself as a major player in gaming graphics cards , and all eyes are on Team Blue with its next generation of GPUs, codenamed Battlemage .

These core counts are lower than both Arc A770 and Arc A750, which had 32 Xe cores and 28 Xe cores, respectively — but the boost frequency is higher. According to speculation, the so-called Battlemage GPU with 56 Xe2 cores was canceled. Intel appears to be adopting a similar strategy to AMD’s RDNA 4 in this generation by sticking to the budget part of the market. However, just a few months ago, the rumors were vastly different. Apart from the flagship card with much better specs, RedGamingTech used to claim that the card could reach clock speeds of up to 3GHz and would come with a massive 112MB of L2 cache.

Intel Battlemage: pricing and release date We expected Battlemage cards to show up in the second half of 2024, but the timeline is growing uncertain as Intel is still yet to make any official announcements. That April to June roadmap didn’t happen, but Intel might still make it if it really plans to announce Battlemage before we ring in the new year.

Given the specs, there are two ways the pricing could go. If Intel goes for the higher end and makes a competitive GPU, I suspect the flagship card will arrive around $500 — but this only applies if Intel goes ahead with the 56 Xe2-core model. That’s pure speculation right now, so don’t treat it any differently.

For Battlemage, Intel says it’s simplifying its lineup. With the first Xe architecture, Intel built it to scale from low-power laptops up to data center GPUs. Intel’s Tom Petersen says that Xe2 will have a more streamlined lineup. You’ll get Xe2-LPG for lower-power applications, and Xe2-HPG for high-performance discrete GPUs.
