Expert Verified By

Intel plans to expand its GPU lineup to other sectors of the market.

Story Highlight
  • Intel plans to release a 24GB version of the Arc B580 GPU to meet rising AI hardware demand.
  • The new 24GB GPU will target industries such as scientific research, education, and data centers, emphasizing the increased need for high-memory GPUs.
  • Intel will need to redesign the PCB and cooling and make software adjustments, increasing the GPU’s cost.

After the launch of the Arc B580, Intel is reportedly getting ready to release a new 24GB edition, so it appears that this is not the only version in the lineup.

Why it matters: The increased demand for AI is driving the need for more powerful hardware. By expanding the Arc B580 GPU’s memory to 24GB, Intel is positioning itself to meet the requirements of industries relying on high-performance computing.

According to a Weixin article, Intel wants to grow its Battlemage lineup because of the growing demand for AI. Experts predict that as 2025 approaches, there will be a significant demand for AI and its hardware. Because of this, Intel intends to double the Arc B580 GPU’s current memory capacity.

According to the report, the productivity market target consumers will include a variety of industries, including scientific research, education, and data centers. Due to its 192-bit bus, the Arc B580 contains 12GB of GDDR6 VRAM spread across 6x 2GB modules.

Intel must use either six 4GB GDDR6 memory modules or twelve 2GB GDDR6 dual-rank modules to boost the memory capacity to 24GB. A 12x 2GB arrangement is currently the only practical choice because professional GPUs are the only ones that can achieve 24GB of memory capacity with 4GB modules.

That said, Intel will need to come up with a new PCB design and cooling solution in order to support the 12x 2GB memory arrangement. To enable the memory controller to manage the new memory configuration, some software and hardware modifications will also be needed, further increasing the cost of the GPU.

Right now, the only 16GB budget GPUs available for less than $400 are the RX 7600 XT 16GB and a few older Radeon and Intel GPUs.
