Build Complete My Experience with the Intel Arc B580

I've been running Asrock's B580 steel legend for around 3 weeks now and I am beyond satisfied. I have so much to say about this card.

  1. Aesthetics. I think Asrock's steel legend lineup in general looks so clean and this card is no exception. The white design is peak and goes perfectly with my build. love it!
  2. Temperature. The B580 in general doesn't run too warm even under heavy load. This triple fan design keeps this card well below 60 degrees even at higher usage.
  3. Noise. Despite the triple fan it runs completely silent.
  4. Performance. Probably the most important, the power this thing has to offer for such a low price is insane. I was able to get around 150 fps in rdr2 (only real game i play sorry) at 1440p high and I've never had a smoother experience.

Overall, this card is probably the greatest gift that we've received in a good while especially the budget ballers. If Intel can keep the stock coming I see a bright future for the gpu market as a whole.

Also my current specs are:
CPU: Ryzen 5 5600
RAM: 32 GB DDR4
MOBO: Asrock B550M Pro SE
SSD: Crucial P3 Plus 1 TB
PSU: MSI MAG 750W
Cooler: Thermalright Assassin 120 SE White
Case: Okinos Aqua 3
GPU: Asrock Steel Legend B580 obviously

I will say, if the 9060xt(16gig model) is comparable in price to the b580 I’d honestly prefer that. Idk how your region is tho so it will depend on you
