With the reveal of the Intel Arc Battlemage graphics cards seemingly imminent, more specs and details have continued to leak out.
Recently, it was discovered that the Intel Arc B580 would feature 12GB of GDDR6 memory and speeds of 19GBps on a 192-bit memory bus. Now, however, even more details are out thanks to a leak from Geekbench (h/t Tomasz Gawronski).
The leak shows the Intel Arc B580 will have 160 compute units or 20 Xe2 cores. That’s less total cores than the 24 Xe cores from the Arc A580, but with the new-generation cores, it leads to better performance. The Geekbench leak also reaffirmed the aforementioned reveal that the graphics card will have 12GB of VRAM and a clock speed of 2850 MHz (2.8GHz).
As far as performance is concerned, the Geekbench leak doesn’t tell much. The graphics card was tested in the software’s OpenCL test, which doesn’t do much to judge how it will perform when gaming. It’s also still too early for a test like that to be reliable enough to get a good idea of how much of an improvement over the last-gen Arc A580 the new mid-range card will be.
Intel has declined to comment on the leaks or reports of a reveal in December.
