Intel ARC A580 8GB Graphics Card Review Featuring Sparkle Orc

Cost Per Frame & Overall Average FPS

So some pretty interesting results, especially when you look at where the card is aimed, which is 1080p high settings, and for the most part with our results, we use Ultra. Now before anyone rushes to the comments, we only received our sample yesterday due to delays, so didn’t have time to retest those the card on high settings as well as doing retests on some of the other cards which is still fairly fresh results anyway, though we are looking to do a big retest with a new system soon, so definitely make sure you’re subscribed for that.

Now performance is one thing, but looking at the overall averages and cost per frame is the easiest way to gauge where each card is positioned, and to see how the Intel A580 really gets thrown into the mix.

It’s here where the A580 comes out the best value GPU you can buy right now at $3.26 per frame when looking at the new retail market. It is hard to ignore the likes of the GTX 1060 used at $2.24 per frame, and even the RX 7600 at $3.30 per frame, which while it didn’t receive the best and warmest welcome when it launched, the small price cut it’s seen since its launch has definitely helped to put it in a better light, though that memory interface is still a real stickler to some.
