Intel's Arc B390 looks impressive in early benchmarks, but AMD isn't worried at all
Intel's Core Ultra Series 3 (Panther Lake) processors promise huge performance gains while keeping power efficiency in check. But Intel hasn't just focused on the CPU; its latest Xe3 graphics also deliver healthy performance gains over Xe2.
We had a chance to sample an early system with a Core Ultra X9 388H processor, which includes the 12-core Arc B390 IGP. We saw nearly 100 fps in F1 (High, XeSS Balanced), over 80 fps in Cyberpunk 2077 (High, XeSS Balanced), and roughly 57.4 fps in Spider-Man 2 (High, XeSS Quality).
