We've got the A380 reviewer's guide, and the news isn't all bad.

Intel's first discrete graphics card, the Arc A380, has been released. In China, exclusively. That's a bit of a shame, but it has at least allowed Intel to stick to its aim of getting the discrete Arc GPUs released early this year. Even if it is just in a single region, and only via OEMs right now.came out with the first reviews out of China, but now Intel has provided us with its reviewer's guide containing far more benchmark numbers across a swathe of games.

That doesn't actually look to be the case here, as the numbers from Intel itself seem to match up pretty well when it's testing the same games as the Chinese reviewers. In short, that confirms the fact the Arc A380 is behind both the Nvidia GTX 1650 and AMD RX 6400 when it comes to gaming performance.

Considering the GTX 1650 is a three-year-old mainstream GPU now—and wasn't considered that quick a card even back at launch—the fact that Intel's kicked off its first real foray into the discrete gaming GPU market with the A380 still looks kinda odd. It's worth noting that the results Intel is offering up are the scores for its reference card, which is the 75W TBP option. That means it doesn't have a PCIe power connector on the board and draws all its power from the motherboard slot it's plugged into. This limits it to a 2,000MHz clock speed, where AIBs can choose to add a 6 or 8-pin PCIe power connector to their boards and offer either 80W or 87W versions with 2,250MHz and 2,350MHz clock speeds respectively.
