]]>The RTX 3070 Ti is our number one pick for the best graphics card for gaming, and this is due to its 1440p prowess and decent 4K60 performance, too. If you’re after a stellar price-to-performance ratio then this GPU is rarely beaten. We’ve had our hands on Zotac Amp Holo video cards in the recent past, and while pricier than Founders Edition models, they are certainly worth that extra cost. That’s because of the premium build quality, suite of software for overclocking / thermal management, and even RGB lighting.
With the graphics card shortage seeming like it’s wrapping up, we’re now seeing the Ampere line selling for far more palatable rates than what we have observed in the past 12 months. And if you’re after prebuilt offers, then we’re also rounding up the best RTX 3070 PC deals and best RTX 3070 laptop deals, too.

]]>Nothing has been verified, so approach the leaked benchmarks with caution, but what these reveal is that the Intel Arc Alchemist appears to perform similarly to an RTX 3070 Ti when benchmarked through SiSoftware official benchmark ranker. What’s most interesting, according to the rankings, the Intel GPU scored 9,017.52Mpix/s over the RTX 3070 Ti’s score of 8,369.51 Mpix/s.
According to Videocardz (opens in new tab), the rumored Intel Arc Alchemist desktop graphics card features specs that would support the leaked benchmarks. This includes 4,096 GPU cores, 16GB GDDR6 memory with a 256-bit, and a boost clock between 2.2 – 2.5 GHz.
RTX 3070 Ti stock launched in February 2021 with a starting launch price of $599. With this information in mind, the Intel Arc Alchemist could release at a similar price point, if not cheaper, given the performance demonstrated here. We’ve been consistently impressed by the capabilities of the RTX 3070 Ti since it dropped, having taken the top spot in our best graphics cards for gaming list.
What is Intel Arc Alchemist?
Intel Arc is an upcoming graphics solution that is due to be released sometime in Q1 2022. Arc is built upon Xe-HPG architecture and features equivalent technologies to what is available right now through Nvidia and AMD Radeon GPUs. Announced features include X Super Sampling, which is A.I. upscaling similar to what Nvidia DLSS and AMD Radeon FideltyFX Super Resolution are capable of.
Intel announced earlier this month on Twitter that its Arc line of discrete graphics will be available in “more than 50 new mobile and desktop designs” with such partners spotted in the promotional material as Alienware, MSI, Lenovo, Dell, and Asus.
