Powerful gaming experience
The Nitro Intel Arc B-Series graphics cards are based on the Intel Xe2 architecture, which offers up to 50 % more performance per core. With clock speeds of up to 2,690 MHz (B570 OC) and 2,740 MHz (B580 OC), they enable smooth high FPS gaming at resolutions of up to 1440p and even 8K. Thanks to DirectX 12 Ultimate and ray tracing functions, lighting, shadows and reflections are calculated in real time, which significantly increases immersion in games.
The Xe Frame Generation (XeFG) uses AI to optimize the refresh rate while ensuring a smooth display. Xe Low Latency (XeLL) technology also minimizes input latency – an advantage that is particularly important in competitive games.
Effective cooling and quiet operation
FrostBlade cooling technology ensures efficient heat dissipation to keep graphics cards cool even during intensive use. The specially structured fan blades and dual ball bearing system increase airflow while reducing noise by 8% compared to conventional plastic fans. The aluminum rear panel provides additional stability and improves cooling through integrated ventilation openings.
Optimal support for content creators
The Nitro Intel® Arc B-Series graphics cards are not only suitable for gamers, but also for creative users. The Dual Media Transcoder speeds up media editing and conversion, while the Xe Media Engine enables smooth video editing. The AI Playground offers additional functions such as AI-supported image editing and media generation to make work processes more efficient.
The XMX AI engines in each Xe core accelerate all AI-powered applications – whether for content creation, media editing or gaming.
Design and compatibility
With HDMI 2.1, three DisplayPort 2.1 connectors and PCIe 4.0, the Nitro Intel® Arc B-Series graphics cards are well equipped to be compatible with the latest gaming setups and monitors. Their compact design facilitates integration into various PC cases, while the robust design ensures durability.
Conclusion
The new Acer Nitro Intel Arc B-Series graphics cards combine gaming performance, AI capabilities and creative versatility in one powerful package. Whether you’re planning intense high-FPS gaming or creative projects, the B570 OC and B580 OC deliver the power and innovation you need. Available now from Acer retailers worldwide.
