Intel has silently introduced two brand new mobility GPUs, the Arc A570M & A530M, based on the Alchemist ACM-G12 die.
Intel Alchemist ACM-G12 GPUs Come To Mobility As Arc A570M & A530M Discrete Chips
The Intel Arc A570M was leaked a few days ago so a launch was expected but as a surprise, there was no buzz made for these new discrete offerings. Based on the information revealed by the company, it looks like the Arc A570M will feature 16 Xe-Cores with clock speeds rated at 1.3 GHz. The GPU comes with a slightly higher 75W-95W TDP than its nearest counterpart, the Arc A550M. The company didn't release any performance metrics for either of the launches but we expect a minor bump from the A550M mainly due to the superior clock speeds.
Intel has also launched a low-end variant in the Arc A-Series range, the Arc A530M. This GPU comes with 12 Xe-Cores and the same 1.3 GHz clock speed. The Arc A530M is rated to perform at 65W-95W.
However, Bionic_Squash revealed that both new launches from Intel are based on the Alchemist ACM-G12 GPU die which was also recently utilized by the Arc Pro A60 graphics card. Intel labeled both Arc A570M and the Arc A530M as "5697" and "5696," respectively, in the MESA driver which has confirmed that the GPU indeed features the "G12" die. Apart from that, several unallocated Device IDs were found, which portray many SKUs in development, while we aren't sure whether they would release.
Intel has mentioned "Q3 2023" as the official launch date for the disclosed GPUs however, we believe that they have been shipped to companies since the respective drivers have already surfaced online. The Arc A570M has already been incorporated into a laptop from the Japanese company LAVIE, and you can view the ACM-G12 die shots below.
We expect further details to be unveiled in the future; however, it does seem like Intel is getting aggressive with releases in the industry. The Arc A-Series now has seven different GPUs, and further products are also in the pipeline.
