โ“FAQs

When does the Arc B770 release?

Expected early-to-mid 2026. Intel has not confirmed an exact date. This is a first-generation high-end Intel Arc product.

Should I buy or wait for the B770?

If it has just launched, give drivers 2-3 months to mature. Intel Arc is a strong value option with a smaller driver ecosystem โ€” ideal for rasterized gaming, less proven for professional and AI workloads.
