ONIX Arc B580 Odyssey OC & Lumi OC Models Appear on Newegg

ONIX has quietly added Intel Arc B580 GPU-based models to its Newegg brand store—signalling the brand's arrival on North American's e-tail landscape. TechPowerUp first picked up on this new manufacturer's existence during Team Blue's introduction of Arc B-series "Battlemage" graphics cards—soon followed up with an updated version of TechPowerUp GPU-Z; adding "PCI vendor detection for ONIX." The emerging Chinese manufacturer's Odyssey OC and Lumi OC models are currently "out of stock" on the Newegg store, but compelling pricing ($10 above Intel's baseline MSRP) has attracted press coverage.

It is not clear whether initial supplies of the two ONIX cards were snapped up quickly, but Newegg states on both listings: "this product is temporarily out of stock because of high demand, we will replenish it as soon as possible." Currently, the Arc B580 Odyssey OC 12 GB (black) model is priced at $259.99, while its Lumi OC (white) sibling goes for $269.99—note: Newegg demands a $9.99 fee for shipping. VideoCardz reckons that ONIX is competing closely with Sparkle—a veteran Intel GPU board partner—and charging less than GUNNIR for equivalent specs/fittings. ONIX's official website features a product page for an Odyssey B570 10 GB model—not listed by Newegg, but we expect it to turn up soon. Intel and its AIBs declared B570's retail availability last week.

It is not clear whether initial supplies of the two ONIX cards were snapped up quickly...
I noticed that they were listed a bit after midnight on the 17th. They were available for almost a full day, until I assume word got out and people bought them up.

I ordered the Lumi B580 for myself. Sent a message to Onix customer support asking if the warranty would be void if I replace the thermal paste (it should still be valid since I live in the USA, but I want to get explicit confirmation, since this company is new to North America). I will probably review the card myself since there are no English reviews that I'm aware of. I found two Chinese reviews which I will link below:
Onix Odyssey B580
Onix Lumi B580

It's been said that Onix is owned by the same parent company as Sapphire Technology, which is PC Partner. I think some of this reasoning comes from the use of a fuse connected to the 8-pin, which is not standard and no other Arc GPUs have. Also, the location of the FCC writing and Canada ICES-003 is the same as Sapphire cards.
...while its Lumi OC (white) sibling goes for $259.99...
Correction: $269.99.

RTX 4060 is already seeing vendor-specific discounts to below B580's MSRP, will get further cuts once the 5000-series launches, and even more once RTX 5060 and Ti arrive. Given that B580 is only starting to arrive in NA a month after its nominal launch, and the only models available are weird Chinese ones at MSRP, I see Battlemage as stillborn. B770 needs to be incredibly special to change that, and there is no indication as to if it will even be launched.

The limited supply on these really hurts the chances of price competitiveness. When even MicroCenter (with in-store only) doesn’t have them in stock, you know it’s bad. I’m less excited about BM everyday because it feels more symbolic than anything, and supply will never be what it should.

It says a lot when Intel's own "Limited Edition" is unobtainium.
