ASRock is known for its AMD Radeon graphics cards, but the card partner seems to be preparing an Intel Arc GPU. The images show the new ASRock Arc A380, which seems to mark the end of the exclusivity of the company’s red team, and the company has other plans for the gaming PC industry.
An ASRock Intel Arc A380 video posted via Billibilli gives us a look at the AIB partner’s GPU, including its shroud design and cooling setup (via Wccftech). The custom card appears to have a single fan and occupies two slots in the PC case, and the bold logo on the side means you won’t mistake it for an AMD card.
The video doesn’t reveal the ASRock GPU specs and SKU information, but it does come with an 8-pin power connector. This suggests that it will require as much power as the Gunnir Intel Arc A380 with a TDP of 75W.

At the moment, Intel’s Arc GPUs almost look like a steamship, or at least they are unless you live in China. There are signs, however, that the lineup of graphics cards could become a current-gen divider, with overclocking the Arc A380 increasing Doom Eternal’s frame rates by 60% over factory settings.
Team Blue is also ready to jump into the higher spec stream as soon as it announces that the launch of the Intel Arc A770 and A750 boards is just around the corner. The company probably won’t trade blows with Nvidia’s RTX 4000 and AMD’s RDNA 3 rivals when they arrive, but if it can overcome driver issues and global availability, its ambition to release a new graphics card every year through 2025 could still be achieved. . become reality.
As for ASRock, making better graphics cards is not the only item on its agenda as it looks like it is preparing to enter the gaming monitor market. Momomo_usthe manufacturer offers 4K and 1440p options, and both will support AMD FreeSync Premium.
