It's fair to say that the Arc B580 is a great-value graphics card, at least in the current market. The cost-per-frame data clearly shows it offers at least 20% better value than competing products, and some of this analysis doesn't even factor you're getting 50% more VRAM.

In terms of stability, the B580 performed well during testing – though not flawlessly. Nevertheless, it is sufficiently stable for its price point. Intel has made substantial improvements to stability and compatibility over the years, and even during the review process, most of the issues we encountered were resolved before the embargo lifted. That said, users are more likely to encounter occasional issues with the B580 compared to the Radeon 7600 or RTX 4060, which is why we feel the 20% discount is justified – and Intel has delivered on that promise.
