Intel Arc graphics is going to be the final piece in the Intel Evo family, completing Intel’s mission to deliver CPU and GPU insides in a single package. Starting with the mobile GPUs in upcoming Intel laptops, the A-Series GPU is going to be tailored for gaming and content creation.
Currently, only the base GPU is being launched in laptops starting with Intel Arc 3 and the more performance-oriented Intel Arc 5 and Arc 7 will be launching later this year for desktops and laptops. The A350M and A370M will be in laptops starting from $899 and will have 4GB of VRAM. The A350M has 6 Xe cores and 6 Ray Tracing cores meanwhile the A370M will have 8 Xe cores and 8 Ray Tracing cores. Intel says these A-Series laptops are capable enough to deliver above 60FPS on FullHD in most games.
These laptops can also do XeSS (Xe Super Sampling) which is fancy for upscaling. The GPU will also sing nicely with Intel’s own processors using Intel Deep Link. According to Intel, it enables dynamic power-sharing and intelligent power distribution which increases application performance by up to 30% for the creation and compute-intensive applications. There is no word on which laptop we’ll see in India with these new Intel GPUs but we’ll find out so
