"Intel’s Arc A770 and A750 were decent at launch, but over the past few months, they’ve started to look like some of the best graphics cards you can buy if you’re on a budget. Disappointing generational improvements from AMD and Nvidia, combined with high prices, have made it hard to find a decent GPU around $200 to $300 — and Intel’s GPUs have silently filled that gap.
They don’t deliver flagship performance, and in some cases, they’re just straight-up worse than the competition at the same price. But Intel has clearly been improving the Arc A770 and A750, and although small driver improvements don’t always make a splash, they’re starting to add up."
Yep. Tried it on Trisquel to see if it would work with the libre kernel which it didn’t. Next I tried it on Garuda and on several games I couldn’t even get them to launch and on others it performed at par or worse than my RX 590.
Ah, that’s unfortunate! Thanks for sharing your experience. I’ve really enjoyed the maturity of AMD on Linux these days with a few cards.
To play devil’s advocate this was a few months ago so perhaps Mesa has improved since then with the A770.
