SPARKLE is announcing the low-profile series: SPARKLE Intel Arc A380 GENIE graphics and SPARKLE Intel Arc A310 ECO graphics. Both graphics cards come as low-profile configurations with 1x HDMI and 2x mini-DP video outputs, a free additional short bracket in the box, and are packed with Intel Arc technologies. Advanced technologies include AI-enhanced Intel Xe Super Sampling (XeSS) for higher image quality and performance, DirectX 12 Ultimate support including hardware-accelerated ray tracing, full AV1 hardware encode and decode for the latest multimedia support, and Intel Deep Link Technologies for exclusive platform advantages combining Intel Core processor and Intel Arc graphics.

These cards are ready to fit into any magic lamp and make gaming wishes come alive! 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.



SPARKLE Intel Arc A380 GENIE, 6 GB GDDR6
This card features a low-profile, dual-fan, dual-slot thermal design with 1x HDMI and 2x Mini DisplayPort video outputs with full performance and capabilities of the Intel Arc A380. The Sparkle Intel Arc A380 GENIE also includes an additional short bracket free-of-charge. The Intel Arc A380 GENIE graphics card also does not require any external power from the PSU so it's ready to fit in any magic lamp.

SPARKLE Intel Arc A310 ECO, 4 GB DDR6 - 50 W TBP SPARKLE EXCLUSIVE !!
The SPARKLE team has successfully reduced the TBP of the Intel Arc A310 GPU from 75 W to 50 W, allowing the SPARKLE Intel Arc A310 ECO to be fully functional within a low-profile, single-slot, single-fan configuration. Meanwhile, the SPARKLE Intel Arc A310 ECO maintains all of the modern technologies and capabilities of the Intel Arc A310 GPU with 1x HDMI and 2x Mini DisplayPort video outputs as well as an additional short bracket free-of-charge. This card is designed to be the best choice for users seeking the best balance of modern technologies and capabilities for small form-factors.

Where to buy that A310 ECO. At last a single slot card with 3 headers.
 
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:
 
So cute.....availability though....hope they reach the shelves.
