Following the initial announcement in August 2021, Intel started shipping its high-performance Intel Arc gaming GPUs to OEMs early this year. Although the company did not release any of its Arc GPU models in the commercial market, a recently-shared short video showcases an Intel Arc Alchemist GPU model in all its glory.
The video was recently shared by a Twitterati named Ayxerious and shows someone, presumably the Twitterati himself, taking an Intel Arc GPU out of a cardboard box. Although the video does not provide much information, it gives a good view of the GPU, containing four ports. You can check out the tweet right below.
Just fyi I have no idea where this is from. pic.twitter.com/QEJs7D7Tmb— Ayxerious (@ayxerious) February 5, 2022
As for the specs, Intel says that its upcoming GPUs will come with high-end features that can compete with Nvidia’s latest and greatest GPUs in today’s market. They will come with support for DirectX 12 Ultimate, hardware-based ray-tracing, mesh shading, variable-rate shading, and more. Plus, Intel has already confirmed that it will not limit the crypto-mining capabilities of the Arc GPUs.
