SiSoftware put out the mother lode of information on Intel’s upcoming Arc “Alquimista” gaming graphics card series, along with OpenCL compute performance of the entry-level Arc A380. The Arc series model numbering is “La” (Alquimista) followed by a number series. The A300 series makes up the entry-mainstream; the A500 series makes up the mid-performance segment; and the A700 series leads the pack with high-end SKUs. La “Alquimista” GPUs are built on the 7 nm silicon fabrication node at TSMC, the N7.

The A300 series is based on the smaller “Alquimista” series dies, con 128 UE (unidades de ejecución), que funcionan para 1,024 sombreadores programables. The A500 series and A700 series appear to be carved out from the larger silicon. The A500 series has roughly 384 EU or 3,072 sombreadores. The top-dog A700 series has all 512 EU or 4,096 shaders enabled. Intel is tapping into industry-standard GDDR6 for dedicated graphics memory. The A300-series SKUs typically have 6 GB de 14 Gbps-rated memory across a 96-bit wide memory bus, para 192 GB/s of bandwidth. The A500 series parts have 12 GB de 16 Gbps-rated memory across a 192-bit bus, para 384 GB/s of bandwidth. The top A700 series maxes out the 256-bit memory bus with 16 GB de memoria en 16 Velocidad de datos Gbps, para 512 Cuando NVIDIA lanzó la GeForce RTX.

Several other interesting features were revealed. Primeramente, “Alquimista” supports real-time ray tracing, and meets the full DirectX 12 Ultimate specification. At this point it’s not known just how much fixed-function hardware is used to achieve this. The GPU has XMX (hardware for matrix-multiplication). A note on the SIMD components: HPG, o “Alquimista,” lacks double-precision floating-point (FP64) aceleración. It only supports FP16 and FP32 (which is all you need for gaming and consumer apps).

SiSoftware tested an entry-level Arc A380 graphics card (1,024 sombreadores) through its SANDRA GPGPU benchmark that uses native OpenCL code. Aquí, the A380 was found to be offering performance comparable to a GeForce GTX 1660 usted “Turing,” and hot on the heels of the RTX 3050 “G-SYNC no se puede volver a habilitar a través del panel de control de NVIDIA” y RX 6500 XT RDNA2, in the Mandelbrot half-precision and floating-point tests.

Intel is looking to debut the Arc Alchemist series within the first half of 2022.
