Doubters be damned, Intel's third-generation Arc Celestial GPUs are absolutely on the way. Not any time soon, mind you, but they're coming for sure. Intel Fellow and friend of the site Tom "TAP" Petersen told PC World back in December that design work for the Xe3-based third-generation Arc discrete GPU was done and...

When we reviewed the Intel Arc B580, we remarked at that time that we were hopeful Intel would launch a bigger version of that product. The Arc B580 has solid performance (at least, as long as you pair it with a fast CPU) and reasonable power efficiency, but it's a relatively small GPU and simply can't compete on...

Despite persistent rumors that Intel's discrete GPU ambitions are dead in the water, a new rumor suggests otherwise. According to well-known leaker Raichu, Intel's upcoming third-generation Arc "Celestial" GPU is still in the works and may be built on Intel's own process technology, rather than relying on TSMC. The...

Despite the fact that discrete Battlemage hasn't arrived...

Intel's Arc graphics cards use a variant of the company's "Xe" graphics architecture, as do all of the blue team's recent integrated GPUs. The first-generation Xe had many variations for different applications, but the second-generation architecture is apparently only going to come in two forms: one meant for high-end...

Hardware nerds of a certain vintage will recall the name Glaze3D with a mix of emotions. Some folks will feel wistful at what could have been, while others will smirk in vicious irony at the vaporware nature of the product. After all, the truth is that Glaze3D never came out, so we don't really know what could have...

Earlier this week, Intel announced its highly anticipated family of discrete graphics cards targeted at the enthusiast gaming market. The cards are based on Intel's Xe-HPG architecture, and will be marketed under the Arc brand name.
The first-generation Arc graphics cards were developed under the GPU codename...
