Furthermore, SPARKLE has built an exclusive Intel Arc A310 by successfully reducing the TBP (total board power) of the Intel Arc A310 from Intel's default 75 W to 50 W, providing the best balance of features, technologies and experiences in a small but advanced form-factor.

The single-slot A310 would make a good glorified video adapter for someone using three displays. I know that it has a blower-style cooler but I doubt that the card would generate enough heat to make much noise because nobody in their right mind would use it for 3D-accelerated gaming.

If anyone were to tell me five years ago that we'd be talking about Sparkle video cards again, I would have thought them to be insane but here we are! :laugh:
