From other reviews, the raw performance is: RX7600>RX6600>A580>RTX3050
I haven't seen any numbers with FSR/XeSS/DLSS turned on, but I suspect DLSS 3050 would have best generated frame performance.
A580 has some serious issues with power efficiency, considering it's supposed to be a mid range card. It's as bad as AMD is with idle power on their chiplet GPUs.Reply
Intel definitely has Arc positioned in the right pricing bracket now across the board. The power consumption and requirement of rebar are the biggest shots against it. I really hope the next generation is able to shore up things as it's a very good thing to have the market actually being served. Reply
The other advantage Intel has is the offlabel use cases. Yes they target gamers, but these are encoding powerhouses and you effectively get QuickSync in a add-in card, a boon to DVR\NVR users everywhere installing IPCAM's. BlueIris, etc support Deepstack and Sense.AI, both accelerated with Alchemy GPU's, and far more efficient than any CPU can encode and analyze multiple H265 streams.Reply
That's the comparison I want to see: how do these cards compare for video encoding, decoding, transcoding? Whether for IP cameras, media servers, or video editing.
Which is the "sweet spot" GPU for this, for sticking into a server that will never be used for gaming?Reply

I'd like to see an updated comparison on Anandtech of the Intel with newest drivers cards VS Nvida and AMD cards :) ReplyPeachNCream - Wednesday, October 11, 2023 - link
AT hasn't done much in the way of dedicated GPU reviews. One can hope, but I believe that ship has sailed. ReplyTheinsanegamerN - Thursday, October 12, 2023 - link
The ship has sailed, burnt, sunk, and become one with the sand by now. The writing has been on the wall for anandtech for awhile now. ReplySamus - Wednesday, October 11, 2023 - link

Will you ever do another GPU review again? Is it that hard? Reply
