Intel Arc A580 Review ft. Sparkle Orc

The Last of Us Part I is a 2022 action-adventure game developed by Naughty Dog and published by Sony Interactive Entertainment. A remake of the 2013 game The Last of Us, it features revised gameplay, including enhanced combat and exploration, and expanded accessibility options. It was released for Microsoft Windows in March 2023. (Wikipedia).

Engine: Naughty Dog in-house engine. We test using the High preset, DX12 API.

Things aren't so pretty for the A580 in The Last of Us Part 1, however. At 1080p it's within 4% of the RTX 3050, and that makes it 21% slower than the RX 6600. The A750 doesn't do very well in this title either, so it seems a bit problematic for Intel Arc.

At 1440p things do improve slightly, with the A580 now just 14% behind the RX 6600, but its 1% lows drop down top 26FPS, so it's not a playable experience using the High preset.
