THE ARC B580 IS ACTUALLY GREAT & AFFORDABLE

After launches ranging from whelming (RX 7600) to insulting (RTX 4060), we finally have a good budget contender: The Intel Arc B580. This Battlemage GPU brings impressive performance at a price that is better than any other video card out there right now. Better than the 4060 Ti, the 6700 XT, and pretty much any other card. Intel and their Xe2 architecture have impressed.

So, the ideal best budget custom built PC in 2025 has an AMD CPU and an Intel GPU. I started my pc building journey in 2012 and I would have NEVER guessed that, what a world we live in.

[Tasteful_Edits]

If you listen, you can almost hear the Intel executives sighing in relief.

The graphics card market is now truly RGB. Team blue just stepped up big time

[DukeOfTorpedoes]

I was literally just now looking at GPUs to replace my 1060 as I got the notification for this video, impeccable timing lmao.

[shiftypersona]

upgrading from my RX580 to a B580 would be kind of poetic methinks

[SuperfluousIndividual]

Intel's CPU departments: 💀💀
Intel's GPU departments: 💃🎉

"Not a benchmark buster card."

ITS 250 DOLLARS ITS A MIRACLE. Budget PC is back on the menu boyz!!!

[Quizack]

You have no idea how happy I am to hear the excitement in Linuses voice. You can really tell he’s been rooting for them to do this, and now they’ve done it. Today is a momentous occasion!

[deezulVo]

I REALLY appreciate how easy it is to follow the graphs now without having to pause and examine them thanks to the coloured pulsing pointers showing up next to relevant cards as the voiceover mentions them

[awatson]

God I hope intel continue to support the GPU division. This is exactly what we needed.

[mpawood]

THIS is the GPU my brother is going to upgrade his 1070 to, especially after seeing the performance now that it's released. For $250, it's a no-brainer.

[axel.ant]

My A770 is still going strong, PLEASE give ARC a try. Performance and stability have improved MASSIVELY with driver updates.

[unvergebeneid]

Man, can you imagine? Having competition in the GPU sector?

[GlobalGaming]

The Arc engineering team’s probably popping champagne over the glowing reviews. They deserve it!!

[Rajamh]

the fact that they compared it more often to the 4060 Ti than the 4060 which Intel thinks is the competition and also in price, is a HUGE win for Intel!
I actually just wish Intel the best here

[TheDDrumline]

Can we all take a second to appreciate how awesome the editing was in the Segue to Ridge?! Super cool!!

[SirJimmySavileOBEKCSG]

Intel GPU's > Intel CPU's

[Chriziz]

a few years back:
best combo: intel CPU with amd GPU
best combo now: amd CPU with Intel GPU

[AngelUribe]

I have to say, Dennis' sponsor segments are getting more and more unhinged by the minute, and I'm all here for it

[michaelroy]

Great news, and great video. As others are saying, it's really easy to follow the graphs in real time without having to pause, while that info is still there for anyone who wants to look at every single number.
