Sparkle Intel Arc A750 ORC OC Edition, 8GB GDDR6, ThermalSync, Torn Cooling, Axial Fan, Metal Backplate, SA750C-8GOC

I decided to try Intel graphics after watching some videos on the Arc cards. Prior to that, my experiences with Intel graphics weren't good, from the old chipsets built into Intel motherboards to the newer UHD graphics built into Intel processors. But, I still decided to give Arc a try and I'm glad I did.I bought this card specifically for the overclocking. The sale page says it goes up to 2200 MHz, but according to the Intel Arc control panel, it mostly runs at 2400 MHz. This likely offers a boost over the Intel branded card, and they're the same price. Plus, I got mine for $30 off, making it an even better deal. The performance in games ranges from good to excellent, depending on the game. Some games like Cyberpunk 2077, RoboCop: Rogue City and Gotham Knights really love Intel Arc graphics and have settings specifically for these cards. A lot of other games just run great, but a few older games require some tweaks to make them run. I have to use dxvk-async for Arkham Knight and I have to set my Steam launch options with my VRAM amount for GTAIV, but those are minor things. Once I fixed those minor issues, both games run just fine. So, experiences can vary based on the game, but that's true of any graphics card. I find this to mostly just be a great card for gaming in general. Plus, Intel seems to release new drivers around the end of each month, which is a great schedule and the drivers keep making the cards better.The only minor issue I have with this card is that the fans do spin up kind of loud when it's under full load, but the card doesn't overheat. The most I've been able to push it to is about 80c, and that was with Cyberpunk and Starfield running at high settings. But, 80c isn't bad at all. Sure, the fans were pretty loud at that point, but they were doing their job.So, all said and done, I'm really pleased with this card and I recommend this to anyone looking for a good budget option, provided you don't mind doing some tweaking for some games.
