ASRock meldet sich als Intel Arc Board-Partner an, Präsentiert A380 Challenger Custom Board

ASRock has signed up as one of Intel’s board partners for its Arc "Alchemist" Grafikkarten, and is ready with its custom-design Arc A380 Challenger card, pictured below. The company joins the likes of China’s Gunnir, in bringing to market some of the first graphics cards from the yet-elusive GPUs from Intel. The ASRock-branded custom A380 card surfaced on Chinese social-media site Bilibili, revealing a cost-effective design, with a simple aluminium mono-block fan-heatsink. The board draws power from a single 8-pin PCIe power connector, and like Gunnir’s A380 card, has a spartan-looking PCB. There’s still no word on global availability, and ASRock could stick to the China-first rollout of Arc.
