Intel certainly has a way with old-school brands. First, it was Sparkle, and now Matrox has jumped on Intel's Arc Alchemist bandwagon. The latter has announced the brand's new Luma series of graphics cards, leveraging Intel's Arc A310 and Arc A380, one of the best graphics cards on the market.
The Arc A3 series utilizes the ACM-G11 silicon. The difference between the Arc A310 and Arc A380 comes down to the former having two fewer Xe cores and 2GB less GDDR6 memory on a limited 64-bit memory interface. As a result, both graphics cards hit the market without much fanfare. For instance, the Arc A380 was only initially available in China, and Intel subsequently launched the Arc A310 in the most silent way the chipmaker could. Matrox is one of the few, if not the first vendor, to release an Arc A310, and not just one but two of them.
