I bought a b580 to try it on for size and i am pretty impressed. Driver installation was a breeze, the games I play( rockstar and source stuff mostly) work great. Its a non technical aside, but it was pretty pain free and relatively impressive performance for cheap money.

Now posting in a spaceman™ thread

Overall agree. I have a B580 and it's been solid so far. Some of their Lunar Lake laptops are also tempting. All day battery life on a Windows laptop? Solid.

Yeah. It's ridiculous that retailers/scalpers expect people to pay more for a B580 than a 3060 12GB. Situation may only get fixed if AMD floods the market with 9060 XT 12GB at $350. Then maybe B580 prices will start to drop.

MLID said that Intel is losing money on every ARC card they sell, because their BoM cost is higher than sale price. So they are intentionally producing very, very low quantity - just enough to avoid investor lawsuits. The lawsuit being for announcing a product to investors and then never delivering it.

I just got an Intel B580 as well, and I would expect it to be at least on par with the RTX 3060Ti, with the added benefit of extra RAM.
Aside from gaming, have you tried using it for applications like Topaz, OBS or Handbrake?
