Intel’s upcoming Arc Battlemage graphics cards have finally made an appearance in the company’s latest media drivers, confirming the existence of the next-gen GPUs. While details are limited, the inclusion of Battlemage in the drivers suggests an earlier launch than initially speculated and hints at Intel’s commitment to competing in the GPU market.
Intel’s upcoming Arc Battlemage GPU faces an uphill battle, with AIBs hesitant to invest due to the underwhelming performance of the previous Arc Alchemist generation. Despite planned performance improvements and more consistent drivers, the Battlemage is expected to launch on a limited budget and struggle to compete with AMD’s RDNA 4 offerings.
Intel’s upcoming Arc Battlemage graphics cards, expected in early 2025, have been benchmarked, revealing performance that falls between the current Arc A750 and A770. This suggests a potential mid-range offering, but further testing and the final product’s price are needed to determine its true value.
