Retailers are already selling Gigabyte Intel Arc graphics cards

Gigabyte had been touted as a possible AIB partner for Intel after various models had been spotted on the EEC website. Now, without a formal announcement, the company has seemingly started shipping them to retailers in some regions.

The Gigabyte Intel Arc graphics card listings shared by Tom's Hardware and VideoCardz were found at retailers such as DNS, Citilink, and Rino. For now, it seems Gigabyte is only shipping entry-level Arc A3-series cards, but it should be a matter of time before we see Gigabyte A7-series cards available for sale.

In these stores, we have three different graphics cards: the Gigabyte Intel Arc A380 Gaming OC, the Gigabyte Intel Arc A380 Windforce OC, and the Gigabyte Intel Arc A310 Windforce. None of these cards have yet to be officially announced by Gigabyte. As the name implies, the A380 cards are factory-overclocked, with a boost clock speed of 2,450MHz (Gaming) and 2,350MHz (Windforce).

The pricing of these cards varies depending on the model we're talking about. While the A380 Gaming OC card costs close to £190 (converted), the A380 Windforce OC goes for £178. The A310 Windforce is the cheapest at £140.

KitGuru says: With Gigabyte now selling Intel Arc graphics cards, the company has become the first to sell GPUs from all major players in the GPU market. In addition, it became the third AIB partner to release Arc GPUs to the DIY market, accompanied by Gunnir and ASRock.
