It doesn't have performance parity with Windows yet so for Linux a 7600/7600xt is better for gaming. Compute performance though is great in their other article so a matter of if you're planning to write ROCm or OneAPI code or just downloading applications and hoping for ROCm or OneAPI support

QuickSync also makes it a great encoder asic, though it may be worth holding out for an even smaller GPU.

I don't need a B580 but I'm considering buying one just to show support. It'd sure be nice to have a valid budget option.

This latest generation of ARC GPUs is very promising. I'm really glad there's finally some good budget gaming GPUs out there. Intel has really committed to this product line, and I really hope it continues to pay off.

The price/performance is fantastic, the power efficiency is decent, and the feature set is way beyond expectations--almost caught up with Nvidia on their second attempt. The rate of improvement is impressive.

I have some friends still on GTX 10 series cards that would love this upgrade. That being said, personally, there's no reason for me to switch yet. As soon as Intel has something that can beat an RTX 3080Ti via higher tiers or next gen, I'll gladly ditch Nvidia.

I hope ANV gets better over time

Interesting stuff. Seems awfully close to the mark. I wonder what will happen if Intel keeps this up.
