According to information and images released by Xfastest, Acer seems to be preparing a new trio of Predator BiFrost custom cards. The series is currently limited to a single factory overclocked model, based on Intel's Arc A770 16 GB GPU. One of the new cards seems to be a cheaper (~$258) A750 8 GB BiFrost model, so Acer's Alchemist ACM-G10 GPU variant lineup is welcoming one addition.

Acer is also embracing RDNA 3 courtesy of AMD, although graphics card enthusiasts could see the introduction of two new Predator BiFrost models based on Radeon RX 7600 8 GB GPU as less than exciting prospects. The leaked photos seem to show a cooler design that lacks ARGB around the two cooling fans—budget friendly pricing (~$290 for the overclocked model, and ~$258 for non-OC) suggests that fancy livery is not so important in the low-to-mid-range tier.

Pretty ugly this one.

It is not a first beauty but this is the least of a concern.
The problem is the steep price tag - ~290 am. dollars for the overclocked model, and ~258 am. dollars for regular offering - is awful and can't be accepted.

This is not even "budget" price tag. This is somewhere in between (a grey zone) the entry level (budget ones) and midrange.
In which case you are much better to spend slightly more a get the much better Radeon RX 6700 XT.

I guess one can't make a living selling only Intel GPUs.

OC models don't make any sense anymore, both AMD and nVidia push their cards to the limit, only concern is noise.

RDNA2 is killing it, nothing comes close to them especially with Ampere being still stupidly expensive.
