I really appreciate Acer for their version of the ARC B580. Completely silent dual fans, zero RGB or LEDs, relatively small form factor, and the cheapest of the bunch.

I was seriously considering returning mine. Performance was absolutely great at 1440p for all the games I play. The problem was that every so often, after a warm reboot or shutdown, the card would either freeze at Windows login, or completely fail to display anything on my monitor (black screen).

After some trial and error, it appeared that windows was downloading and installing an older drivers everytime this happened (version 8132). Disabling windows hardware driver updates seems to have fixed the issue for me. Currently stable on the latest WHQL driver (version 8991).

After all that headache, I've decided to keep the card. Probably won't be the last of my frustrations, but for now, I'm happy with it. It is a huge step up from my 1660 Super I'd been using for years.

Hola amigos arc's como les conté en un post anterior compré mi Intel Arc a750 en $149 dólares por Amazon usada- como nueva, he jugado Fortnite (muy poco) en todo en épico y perfecto, y hoy me realice pruebas sintéticas, estos fueron algunos resultados, creo que es una compra fenomenal relación -precio, que opinan de las pruebas (vivo en una ciudad bastante calurosa eso influye un poco en la temperaturas también creo) ahh y creo que en la prueba extreme estaba limitado a 30 FPS por el vsync

I am using a i5-8500 and im looking for the best card to run games at 1080p for medium and high settings maybe ultra but idk I was thinking the Intel arc a580 8gb oc but don't know

Hey everyone,

Just picked up an Intel Arc B580 (12GB) for my rig and wanted to get some tips from people who've been running it for a while, especially for Total War: Warhammer and The Finals.

My specs:

CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5700X

Motherboard: Gigabyte B550M K

RAM: 32GB DDR4

Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 (3DHP)

PSU: 600-650W

OS: Windows 10

A few questions:

-Any driver settings or tweaks you'd recommend for Arc cards specifically?

-Best in-game settings for Warhammer (large battles tend to be CPU-heavy, so curious how the GPU handles it)?

-Any known issues with The Finals on Arc, or does it run smoothly out of the box?

-General XeSS vs native resolution recommendations?

-Anything I should watch out for coming from an AMD card (RX 7600) to Intel's drivers?

Appreciate any advice from fellow Arc owners!

I am loving my Onexplayer 3, but one game that is a real performance headscratcher is Halo: Campaign Evolved. Wattage scaling has no impact from about 29 watts up (the unlocked ceiling is 40w). I want to hit a stable 50fps in the initial outdoors part of the The Silent Cartographer, but the framerate just won't go above 35-45, no matter what. I have a mix of medium (everything medium except:, high (textures) and low (Lighting)), and XESS set to either balanced / high (trying both). The graphics core is maxed out at 2300mhz, and framerate is about 40-45 when nothing is happening and you're sitting still, but as soon as you start driving around the island or enemies are on screen, the framerate is 33-35 ish). It's not good enough for a game that has 2003 code. Also, frame gen looks performs very badly when turned on (frame rate goes to 70 but with stuttering - I assume because the GPU is already maxing out). Using a combination of Xess and tweaking graphics settings, I can get pretty much all other games to 50+ ish (black flag r, forbidden west, claire obscure, MSFS 2024, Tlou2). A few items that I'd like your help with:

1) What is causing the game to scale so badly. I assume it's the core UE5 graphics math (nanite and lumen) that are so intense (or badly optimized?) that fill rate isn't the issue, but core math is - hence wattage, scaling and additional graphics settings and framgen are not making any difference).
2) Is this just bad game optimization? Are there any other UE5 games that play at 50-60?
3) Somewhat related, IMO, XESS needs a massive update on two fronts. It's OK but not great at balanced / high at 1200p in general, and with Lumen it's terrible. It needs a transformer model update or such and it needs that in the next few months, and it needs to be re-programmed to work with lumen. When you turn on TSR in H: CE, the image quality is hugely improved, but performance tanks (TSR 67% vs Xess 67% - 30 fps vs 38-45).
4) Any magic ideas for getting 50fps out of Halo CE? Anyone else with different experience?

Thanks!

He estado buscado por muchos lugares el esquemático de mi intel para poder repararla pero no encuentro por ningún lado, alguien sabe si existe o habrá algún otro esquemático que me funcione para guiarme?

I have a Lenovo P3 Ultra. Core i5, 14600 with 48gb ram. Windows 11.

I had to pull the B50 Pro out. With it in, the boot times are ridiculous slow. Several minutes. Sometimes over 5 minutes. This is cold boot.

Any clue what is up? Any solution? Disappointed that I spent a bunch of money on a card that is useless.
