Acer will launch a custom Arc A770 GPU
Intel’s OEM partner confirms it is releasing a custom Arc A770 graphics card as part of the Predator series.
The card shown by Acer today is a 2.5-slot design with two fans. This model appears to be a hybrid between a blower-style fan and an outdoor fan design, something we haven’t seen before.
Acer’s A770 GPU is a custom design equipped with dual 8-pin power connectors, so it should offer better performance than Intel’s limited edition aka “Intel Founders Edition”.
The A770 is the flagship model, featuring a full ACM-G10 GPU with 32 Xe-Cores. What remains to be confirmed is whether this particular model comes equipped with 16GB or 8GB of VRAM. Intel has confirmed that 8GB models will only be released by card partners, but we should see 16GB variants as well.
Acer now joins ASRock, Gunnir and MSI as the first official board partners for the launch of the Arc GPU.
