The Card

Sparkle's ROC card introduces a new design that looks nice, reminding me a bit of Zotac's GeForce offerings. The company has installed a metal backplate with various highlights and a cutout for air to flow through.


Dimensions of the card are 27.0 x 13.5 cm, and it weighs 888 g.


Installation requires three slots in your system. We measured the card's width to be 68 mm.


Display connectivity includes three standard DisplayPort and one HDMI port.


The card uses two 8-pin connectors, plus PCIe slot power, allowing a maximum power draw of 475 W.


The card comes with an illuminated Intel ARC logo.

Teardown

The main cooler uses four heatpipes and provides cooling for the GPU, memory and VRM circuitry.


On the back, you'll find a metal backplate with cutouts to improve airflow.
