Tiny Pre-Production Intel Arc Graphics Card Pictured

The creator of RivaTuner/MSI Afterburner has recently posted a picture of a pre-production Intel Arc graphics card which could potentially be the entry-level A310. The low-profile single-slot card is pictured alongside the 34 cm long MSI RTX 3090 Ti SUPRIM where it is easily half the length at approximately 16 cm which is in the same range as some GeForce GTX 1630 and Radeon RX 6400 cards.

The Intel Arc card is designed for developers featuring a small dual-fan cooling solution with a shroud that might have been 3D printed. This is the first Intel Arc device to feature such a low-profile design with other ACM-G11 based cards from Intel and board partners often featuring dual-slot designs with larger single or dual fan setups.

AKA Unwinder for us oldbeards ;) I hope Intel is doing hard work with their drivers, A380 looked pretty bad so far.

That little thing is a 3D printed toy card, minus a pacifier on the end of it.

I feel bad for the ITX crowd, some will be looking to buy this because of its size and get let down by its performance.

Let down? when it's just above a 1050ti, that's cut your legs off.

We totally need this. The A380 just isn't slow enough.

The ITX crowd already has the 6400, which I think will retain its position as being faster than both the 1630 and this.

Really interesting video. I really think Intel is going to change the GPU market, Annoys me a bit how people automatically think They are going to fail. Don't forget how much experience they have in GPU's albeit i type, and they have the experience in drivers. They certainly have the $$$$ to make this work.

Well hate to break it to ya but there is nothing "automatic" about it, its more a result of the ermm "achievements" in the past.

unrelated, man looking forward to 10/20 years in the future when a basic card the size of that small one is actually faster then an RTX3090

Given that the 6400 is faster than the A380 by 14% (outside of one major outlier) it is definitely faster than this.

They'd be much better off just getting a 6400, that's already on the market, has better driver support, and costs the same.

Comparing something that's a completely normal size to the biggest thing you can find is just a blatant attempt to distort the truth.

The 3090 Suprim makes some other unnecessarily-large cards look small too.

This Arc 310 is just a regular low-profile card that's actually about an inch longer than many single-slot low-profile cards. Nothing to see here...

Like I told my wife when we met..

It’s not the size that matters.. it’s how you use it :cool:

Nah, the RX 6400 is a lot faster.

They'll inevitably be crap at first, but imagine in 5 years when they are on "Eggplant" or whatever. Things could be different.

According to the article, It's likely a dev card. No one is going to find it at retail.

The RX 6400 also comes in single slot HHHL.
