GUNNIR Arc A580 8GB GDDR6

The GUNNIR Arc A580 Index is a desktop graphics card built on the Intel Xe-HPG architecture with 24 Xe-cores and 8GB of GDDR6 memory on a 256-bit bus. It connects via PCI Express 4.0 and delivers a base clock of 1700 MHz with a maximum boost of 2400 MHz. The card requires dual 8-pin power connectors and a 550W supply.

Suits 1440p gaming and XeSS upscaling

This card suits builders targeting 1440p gaming with ray tracing and XeSS upscaling on a mid-range power budget. The 185W TBP and dual-slot footprint fit standard ATX cases with adequate airflow. Users needing DisplayPort 2.1 or a single 12VHPWR connector should look at newer designs.

24 Xe-cores decide the tier

The 24 Xe-cores and 3072 shader units set the performance tier for this model. That core count drives ray tracing throughput and XeSS quality at 1440p. If your workload demands more compute units or higher memory bandwidth, a higher-tier GPU is required.

Questions about this item

Will the PCIe 4.0 x16 interface run at full speed on my older motherboard that only has PCIe 3.0 slots?

The card uses a PCIe 4.0 x16 interface and will operate at PCIe 3.0 speeds when installed in a 3.0 slot, which still provides ample bandwidth for the 8GB GDDR6 memory and 256-bit bus.

How can I verify the 24 Xe-cores and 3072 shader units are active after installing the driver?

Open the Intel Arc Control panel or GPU-Z; both will report 24 Xe-cores, 3072 shader units, 8GB GDDR6 on a 256-bit bus and a 1700 MHz base clock.

The box lists dual 8-pin power connectors — do I need to buy any cables or adapters if my PSU only has 6-pin plugs?

The card requires two 8-pin PCIe power connectors and a 550W or higher PSU; if your supply lacks native 8-pin leads you must purchase appropriate 6-pin-to-8-pin adapters or a new PSU.
