Intel has officially shipped its Arc "Battlemage" Pro B50 GPU for workstations to reviewers, demonstrating what the BMG-G21 silicon is capable of in the tiny, small-form-factor body. Carrying only 16 Xe2 cores, the GPU is paired with 24 GB of GDDR6 memory running at 14 Gbps, on a 192-bit bus. This produces about 224 GB/s of memory bandwidth, enough to keep 16 Xe2 cores busy. Since the total board power of Arc Pro B50 is 70 W, there are no external power connections, and it is powered entirely using the PCIe slot, which runs at Gen 5 and uses only x8 lanes for signal. The card is a dual-slot design, but built as a low-profile model.

Intel has designed the Arc Pro series for various GPU-accelerated workflows, such as AI, design, engineering, architectural, and manufacturing software. All of that comes with a workstation-focused, validated, and robust graphics driver. Intel claims that the GPU achieves 170 TOPS of INT8 compute and is suitable for local AI work. The card outputs four mini DisplayPort outputs. For pricing, it ships with an MSRP of $349, which will be available as a standalone package or a part of an OEM system. Below are Intel's official performance figures:
