Intel Arc A770 & A750 VRAM Confirmed!

It seems more than a little weird that, unlike the lead into the launch of the AMD Radeon 6000 and Nvidia 3000-series of graphics cards (specifically, the debate on how much VRAM particular models might have), most of the chatter on the upcoming next-gen GPUs has been revolving around how much power they may (or may not) consume (video here on the subject!).

With the upcoming release of Intel’s Arc desktop graphics cards, however, we’re making a return to the subject of VRAM. – Why? Well, following a report via Videocardz, Intel has formally confirmed how much VRAM (video memory) the Arc A770 and Arc A750 will be coming with!

Intel Arc 770/Arc 750 VRAM Revealed!

Following the official reveal of their scavenger hunt competition, Intel has formally confirmed the amount of VRAM both the upcoming A770 and Arc 750 will feature. – No, alas, they don’t go into any great details such as what kind of VRAM it will be (GDDR6/GDDR6X, etc.), but this is at least our first nailed-down confirmation as to some of the key specifications!

  • Arc 770 – 16GB of VRAM
  • Arc 750 – 8GB of VRAM

So, on the whole, pretty decent quantities. Albeit, there are clearly still huge question marks as to what level of comparative performance they may offer. In this regard though, Intel may be set to deploy a very interesting strategy.

Aggressive Pricing

Intel doesn’t appear to be under any delusion that its upcoming Arc GPUs, even its highest-spec A770, are going to offer much comparative performance competition to the upper(ish)-mid-tier of current-gen AMD and Nvidia graphics cards. – With this in mind though, they might be set to deploy a strategy when they go live.

Namely, sources reportedly citing information direct from Intel are suggesting that they are going to go exceptionally aggressive in terms of pricing. – It’s already rumoured that the A770 is set to cost under $400, but it’s being suggested that in terms of price to performance (AKA bang for buck) Intel is specifically looking to destroy AMD and Nvidia in this particular remit.

It’s genuinely interesting news, and certainly, a move that could see Intel gain a lot of traction very quickly. Even if their GPUs are not competing at the upper end of the scale. Then again though, with the Nvidia 1060 currently on nearly 68 months at the top of the Steam Hardware Survey, it’s well-established that inexpensive and ‘good enough’ GPUs often prove to be the most popular!
