An accessible approach to modern gaming with AI and ray tracing
The Nitro Arc B570 OC graphics card is built on Intel's modern Xe2 graphics microarchitecture, offering up to 50% performance boost per graphics core and significantly improved ray tracing blocks along with AI. The B570 chip is equipped with 18 Xe2 graphics cores, in Nitro Overclocked (OC) form, operating at an increased frequency of up to 2690 MHz, along with 10 GB of fast GDDR6 memory with a 160-bit bus. The card fully meets the demands of modern gaming engines like Unreal Engine 5.
The new model also supports advanced AI scaling technologies like XeSS and Xe Frame Generation, complemented by the unique AI technology Xe Low Latency to reduce input lag while gaming with frame generation. This allows for high FPS rates in resource-intensive projects at 1440p resolution and enables 8K output across three monitors via the DisplayPort 2.1 interface in addition to HDMI 2.1.
The proprietary Acer Frost Blade cooling system, featuring a pair of powerful dual-bearing fans, ensures stability and silence during intense gaming battles. The factory overclocking of the chip and memory to 2690 MHz provides a solid power boost compared to the reference design from Intel, maintaining reliability during prolonged use under maximum load. External power is supplied by a single 8-pin connector, and the declared TDP level is within 150W.
Acer AI technologies for comfortable everyday tasks
The Nitro Arc B570 OC graphics card supports a wide range of current AI tools for creative realization, all within the comfortable Acer Intellegence Space. Utilities for intelligent processing of graphics and videos, AI-generated images from text descriptions, and other rapid access tools to advanced capabilities of neural networks are available within a few clicks. This includes a wide palette of functional AI Playground tools to unleash the full potential of Intel XMX AI engines, which are an integral part of the Xe2 core microarchitecture. Additionally, a comprehensive hardware codec support package via Xe Media Engine is provided for video professionals, reducing CPU load during video streaming.
