Intel may announce Arc B770 graphics card soon

Just ahead of what's expected to be a busy Computex for mid-range GPU announcements from competitors, Intel's official Arc social media accounts have been dropping hints about a more powerful graphics card. In response to fans asking for a beefier GPU following an Arc Pro announcement, Intel's X account replied with phrases like “stay tuned,” “we're just getting started,” and “more to come” over the last week. This is widely interpreted as hinting at the long-rumored Arc ‘Battlemage' B770.

The timing for these teasers (via VideoCardz) appears deliberate, as Nvidia prepares to debut the RTX 5060 and AMD is set to introduce the RX 9060 XT next week. This suggests that Intel may be planning its own mid-range rival.

Based on previous reports, the Arc B770 is rumoured to feature between 24 and 32 Xe2 CUs, paired with a 256-bit memory bus and up to 16GB of GDDR6 memory. These specs would position the B770 as a direct competitor to Nvidia's RTX 5060 and AMD's RX 9060 XT in the mid-range gaming segment.

While it's not confirmed whether Intel plans to announce the Arc B770 at Computex next week or hold a separate solo livestream event later, the social media interactions have sparked interest among enthusiasts.
