Starting at just $229, the Intel Arc A750 “Alchemist” graphics card is now 7% cheaper than the MSRP Intel Graphics set for the SKU, with the reference-design A750 fetching a price of $250. The ASRock Arc A750 Challenger, a card with a bespoke design that integrates Intel’s second-fastest GPU with a straightforward 2-slot, twin-fan cooling solution, commands the new low price. Along with a recent significant improvement to the Arc A-series GPUs’ DirectX 11 and DirectX 9 gaming performance, Intel has been active with Game On driver improvements. The A750 and A770, targeted at gamers who prefer to play at 1080p and 1440p, are said to provide significant performance and financial advantages over the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060. The AMD Radeon RX 6600 XT, which has real-world costs equal to those of the A750 but performance that competes with the RTX 3060, is the dark horse in this market.
