Intel Arc A580 Review ft. Sparkle Orc

A Plague Tale: Requiem is an action-adventure stealth game developed by Asobo Studio and published by Focus Entertainment. It is the sequel to A Plague Tale: Innocence (2019), and follows siblings Amicia and Hugo de Rune who must look for a cure to Hugo's blood disease in Southern France while fleeing from soldiers of the Inquisition and hordes of rats that are spreading the black plague. The game was released for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, Windows, and Xbox Series X/S on 18 October 2022. (Wikipedia).

Engine: Asobo Studio in-house engine. We test using the Medium preset, DX12 API.

As for A Plague Tale: Requiem, the A580 scales much better here, sitting closer to the top of the chart and even beating the RX 6600 by a small margin. The trouble is its 1% lows aren't quite so impressive here, something which also affects the A750. It's not awful, but the RX 6600 is much more consistent overall.

Things to tighten up at 1440p, but again the overall frame rate is now much lower – with 1% lows hitting just 32FPS, even using the Medium preset.
