GUNNIR Announces Arc A380 Photon – The World’s First Custom Intel Arc Graphics Card

Intel is trying its best to attract some attention with the official launch of their Arc A380 “Alchemist” entry-mainstream desktop graphics card in China, priced at USD $153 (approx.)

Taken from Videocardz … GUNNIR announced the availability of its A380 Photon graphics card. This is the first known custom variant of the Arc A380 graphics card, and also, the world’s first custom card based on Xe-HPG architecture. 

GUNNING A380 Photon OC is factory-overclocked model with two fans. That’s already an upgrade over reference design which is a single-fan model. The Photon is a dual-slot design equipped with a single 8-pin power connector. It appears to be using an aluminum block as a heatsink sitting above ACM-G11 GPU. The card uses three 2GB GDDR6 modules, each clocked at 15.5 Gbps. Interestingly, that’s slower than reference specs which is 16 Gbps.

In terms of frequency specs, this model should be faster than the reference A380, which has a base clock of 2000 MHz and TBP of 75W. GUNNIR’s custom model has a maximum clock of 2450 MHz and 92W TBP respectively. It is unclear how maximum and base clock correlate to each other, but the company is claiming it is an OC card, so it should have higher clocks regardless.
