Intel’s own Ryan Shrout has emerged from a swaying gate, aiming for certain rumors that have spread its wings since the announcement of its Arc Alchemist discrete GPU. Specifically, Shrout has denied rumors about future Arc A780 graphics cards. First reported by Moore’s Law (MLID), a known leaker, the Arc A780 was an unreleased card that offered better performance than Intel’s confirmed top-level discrete card, the Arc A770. It has been.
There are rumors of opposition, but there was no Intel Arc A780, and there were no plans to become an A780. Let’s resolve that dispute. 🤣July 16, 2022
Ryan Schlaut, an element of Intel’s graphics marketing, may be familiar with the details that the leaker isn’t. Another Intel specialist, Intel ArcTech evangelist Tuan Huynh, has stepped up Shrout’s disclosure and even said he had never heard of so-called graphics card rumors. In a year and a half he has joined the team..
MLID, which previously had a relatively straightforward record of the leaked details of Intel’s Arc lineup, quickly defended against reports and information gathering from within Intel’s Arc team. MLID’s Twitter account even says Intel’s denial is just a damage control attempt because it couldn’t make a product that competes with Nvidia’s current RTX 3070 card.
Please acknowledge that the GA104 size die could not compete with the 3070Ti or 3070 other than 3DMark. It’s also pretending to be the same source that Raptor Lake, Redwood Cove, and Alchemist’s cooler leaks all guessed. .. Spoiler Alert: I didn’t. 🤣July 17, 2022
Of course, you may never know the truth behind the ArcA780. However, Intel has little real benefit in admitting that it couldn’t create a suitable replacement for a competitor’s card that is expected to soon be replaced by Nvidia’s upcoming RTX 4000 series.
One thing is certain: Intel’s top-of-the-line Arc card in the Alchemist series will actually be the A770. To be on the safe side, the Arc A770 is mounted on a 406 mm ^ 2 die with 32 Xe cores and 4,096 ALUs and 21.7 billion transistors built on TSMC’s N6 process. Has been confirmed by Intel.
Intel’s performance forecasts show that the A750 has a resolution of 2560 x 1440, which is about 12% faster than Nvidia’s RTX 3060 graphics card.
Given that Nvidia’s RTX 3070 offers about 42% better performance than RTX 3060, Intel’s A780 should offer about 30% faster performance than Arc A770. According to MLID, the ArcA780 was predicted to have a die as large as the RTX3070 (Samsung’s 8nm at 392 ^ mm). The problem is that Intel’s A770 has already been confirmed to have larger (and denser processes) dies. Therefore, it is unlikely that Intel could not perform so much without significantly increasing the die area.
