The lid has been lifted on the Intel Arc B580 and B570, the first desktop Battlemage graphics cards, and they undercut Nvidia and AMD.

Intel's first Battlemage GPU, the Arc B580, will be here before Xmas and it'll be 10% faster and $50 cheaper than the GeForce RTX 4060.

Overall, Intel is claiming that the B580 has the measure of the Nvidia RTX 4060 by 10% on average at 1440p while undercutting its $299 by $50.
