ASRock Intel Arc B580 Challenger 12GB OC Graphics Card, Xe2-HPG, 2740MHz GPU, 12GB GDDR6 192 Bits, PCIe 4.0, Dual Fans, 0dB Silent, DP 2.1, HDMI 2.1a

Bought this guy to make my own steam machine. Works wonderfully on SteamOS, and beats out the Steam Machine’s performance! Driver issues? Mesa doesn’t support hdmi 2.1 on Linux yet, but it’s coming soon! Otherwise? No complaints from me! This card punches well above its weight class. It’s a no brainer if this is your price point. 1440p high settings gaming all day! As far as I can tell, there is no CEC support.

I love this GPU. It might not be the most powerful, but I haven't had any issues yet. I'll touch on a few things that others have mentioned and then try to mention a few niche uses. So far I've upgraded the firmware about 2 times (I bought mine about a month ago). I've had fantastic performance playing God of War, the Witcher, Forza Horizon 6, and Paralives ultra settings with no hiccups. I haven't used XeSS yet, but I will if I play a more demanding game, feel free to make recommendations and I'll post the results here. It looks great in my build and is compatible with everything on Windows and even Bazzite (I can't vouch for SteamOS, but I do recommend Bazzite). I have an 850 watt power supply (because it was on sale) but a 450W power supply, even with my Ryzen 7 7700x would have been adequate. It doesn't draw a lot of power, stays cool and runs quiet.

Handles higher encoder bit-rates like a RTX 3070 so sports velo training you can get a decent resolution of RPMs from ball movement and sips lower power like an RTX 3050 or 4050 so a tiny PC build is possible. Just like past Arc GPUs, eGPU doesn't work on most consumer laptops so stuck to a desktop. Sports training this is a cheaper option for studying footage from pitching or QB ball tosses. Very silent for a twin fan design. Compact to cram into a very tiny SFF mATX case if you need a mobile training or gaming rig. If you do self baseball or softball velo training, the higher bit-rate scales better on Arc than IGP Xe graphics, you'll need a bit-rate above 5000 to study velo above 95 MPH to see detailed movement vs Quicksync IGP. Overall better value, drivers are better each time and proved Intel Iris/Xe IGP could be scaled like a dGPU.

I, initially, bought this to put in a 7th gen intel machine, but without REBAR, this card doesn't represent very well. With REBAR, this card does very well. This means 10th gen Intel or higher and with options in the BIOS to enable it. I'm not an AMD person, so I can't speak to that type of build. I've had this on a 10th gen for 2 months now and it does well in BF6, which is what I got it for.

I took a gamble on the new Intel Arc B580 "Battlemage" card, and I am absolutely floored by the performance-per-dollar here. It is safely overclocked out of the bos. ASRock has nailed the thermal design; this card runs whisper-quiet even when I’m pushing 1440p gaming to the limit. The drivers are rock solid (Intel has come such a long way!), and the AV1 encoding is a dream for streaming. It feels incredible to get this level of framerate and visual fidelity without spending a fortune. The build quality is sturdy, and it looks sleek in my case without being overly flashy.[1] This is hands down the best value GPU on the market right now. Team Blue is winning!

Pairing the ASRock Intel Arc B580 with my AMD 9600X has been an absolute win. I game strictly in 1440p, and this card handles everything I throw at it without breaking a sweat. Zero crashes, zero stuttering, zero weird behavior — just smooth, dependable performance. The frame rates have been consistently excellent across a wide variety of games. Temps stay under control, the card runs quietly, and ASRock’s build quality is exactly what you’d expect from a big, reputable manufacturer. Installation was easy, and once it was up and running, the experience has been flawless. Intel’s Arc drivers have clearly come a long way, because this setup feels polished and stable. Honestly, the value you get here is impressive — strong 1440p performance without paying high-end prices. If you're considering an Arc card for mid-range or higher-resolution gaming, don’t hesitate. This ASRock B580 delivers, and it does it well. Highly recommended.

The performance for the price is very impressive. Easily comparable to more costly cards. ReBar will need to be activated in bios to use the full capabilities of the graphics card. It’s easily able to run my games at high or ultra high settings with ray tracing at 1080p no issues, sitting around 60°C - 65°C and peaking at 71°C. At idle and low load 50°C and below it does shut off the fans for silent use. UPDATE: Recently started gaming at 1440p. Games like Finale Fantasy XVI and Stellar Blade I am still able to play on High and Ultra settings. I recently got Expedition 33 and this card does struggle to play that game at 1440p, everything has to be set to low except anti-aliasing set to high and Xess frame gen on and 66% upscaling. I’m still impressed with the card especially coming from a 1660 super. Expedition 33 is the first game I’ve seen it struggle with but looks like I can play it at 1080p no issues at medium/high.

I wanted to love this GPU. I wanted to give Intel a chance. I bought a 5060 that had a manufacturing defect, returned it, and wanted to try this because I'm happy with my Intel 4770k that's stable at 4.9ghz. Its an old CPU but it's never let me down and never breaks 70*C in my system. First off, it's not written ANYWHERE but unless you have a 10th Gen Intel or newer CPU, this GPU won't work right. You also need to install drivers using another GPU or onboard video because this card can't output a video signal without a driver update, I have NO CLUE why it doesn't support windows visual basic graphics like Nvidia does. I slogged through the driver install, and the clean driver install messed up my SSD. I'm lucky I had another ssd with a backup of my windows install or I would be hosed. PERFORMANCE: Due to the age of my CPU, this card got LOWER framerate than the 1060 I was trying to upgrade from. Terrible. This GPU requires a feature called resizable BAR which is why you need a 10th Gen Intel or newer CPU. I returned this and scrounged up the money for a 5070. I've never been happier. This is a budget card, a card people who can't afford to upgrade from an older system might choose. I can't understand why they decided to make it require features from more modern cpu's. Massive fumble by Intel and I wouldn't fault them if this requirement was stated, but it isn't. Better luck next time I guess.

An excellent GPU, FOR BOTH PRODUCTIVITY AND GAMING, Sadly after i bought i realized it's not compatible with my pc my motherboard as it's PCI3 with no rebar.

Habe die Grafikkarte seit nun etwas über 3 monaten mit einem b550 Mainboard und einem AMD Ryzen 5600X in betrieb und habe sie unter Windows und Linux testen können und sie tut was sie soll. Hatte ein Problem beim Einbau das der Computer nach dem Einbau hochgefahren ist aber kein Bild angezeigt hatte egal was ich gemacht hatte. Ich musste meine alte Grafikkarte einbauen und das neuste bios update instalieren danach in den Einstellungen Resizable Bar und 4G Decoding aktivieren danach lief sie ohne Probleme. unter Windows hatte ich bisher keine Probleme benutze es für multiplayer spiele die einen Kernel cheat schutz haben mit Linux laufen ältere spiele ohne Probleme nur neuere dx12 spiele machen ab und zu Grafikprobleme und man muss etwas rumspielen an den Einstellungen. ich musste unter Linux mint kernel 6.17 und kisak ppa instalieren um dx12 spiele zum laufen zu kriegen und die Temperatur, Lüfterdrezahl der Grafikkarte angezeigt zu bekommen bin ansonsten zufrieden mit dem Teil

Best budget GPU at this point in time. Works great for all new games. For older games using DX11, may encounter some issues such as stuttering or lower framerate.

Perfetta in tutto

Esta grafica no le pide nada a las demás, corre todo, la tengo con un R7 7700 y voy sobrado a 1440P
