Intel Professionalism Inside

Everything about this graphics card shouts professional. Built with premium components—and to meet the expectations of our demanding premium workstation manufacturers—this graphics card is manufactured using techniques inspired by airplane fuselage fabrication. These techniques include a robust sheet-metal aluminum shroud, aluminum base plate, and dense 25x blade thermally-efficient high-speed axial fan that exhausts a high volume of hot air out of the card’s elegant vents and main system. All these features help ensure that the card, your system, and your software can run smoothly.

Key Features

Expertly Verified Software

Intel has worked hand-in-hand with hundreds of software companies over the years, and this unmatched experience goes into our professional Intel Arc Pro A-series graphics cards. Certifications and software workflow qualifications are as important to us as they are to you.

Ray Tracing Without the Premium

Graphics cards need to do more than push pixels to displays, they also need to accelerate the creation of beautiful, compute intensive imagery. Ray-tracing hardware technology built into Intel Arc Pro A-series graphics allows your compatible software to explore these new pro workflows, without the cost premium. Ray tracing is typically thought of as only available on expensive GPUs, but our latest graphics cards change this expectation.

More Large Displays with One Powerful Card

Despite the condensed forms, the latest Intel Arc Pro A-series GPUs can support multiple modern high resolution monitors. The Intel Arc Pro A60 GPU supports up to four ultra-large displays to enhance your workflow efficiencies Add high dynamic range (HDR) and audio support too and you have all you need for that next social-media-worthy home or office multi-display setup.

12GB of High-Performing Memory as Standard

The demands that professional software places on graphics cards continue to increase with each new software release. To combat this, we added 100%1 more memory than similar baseline offerings from the competition. More memory allows you to take on bigger video projects, tackle larger assembles, develop models and buildings, and work on detailed 4K imagery.

By including more high-speed memory, we help you achieve your large project vision.

More Memory Bandwidth Than the Others

The bandwidth of your graphics card is an important consideration. Get it wrong and you can slow down professional workflows. That’s why we made sure the Intel Arc Pro A60 GPU has support for modern PCIe* 4.0 x16 systems, without penalizing backwards compatibility. Graphics memory is further enhanced by almost 33% more2 high speed bandwidth than similar offerings from the competition, allowing project data to be accessed by your software even faster.

Making AI Attainable and Faster

With 100% more dedicated X^e HPG cores than our other Pro A-series products, there’s a ton of great technology packed into this GPU range, including support for your compatible AI tools with built-in dedicated AI acceleration where you need it.

Compatible with Your Viewports

Professional software can use varying viewport API languages, which is why we optimize our graphics for a range of technologies. Working with long-established manufacturers, we aim to squeeze as much performance as possible out of the cards, while not disadvantaging overall stability.

The latest standard from Microsoft for high-resolution textures and ray tracing (DXR), improving visuals within the viewport and real-time software.

An API for Heterogeneous Computing (systems with more than one kind of processor or cores).

A cross-vendor, cross-platform API for 3D graphics and compute, Vulkan offers support for advanced features such as ray tracing.

Additional Features and Technologies

There’s more to a professional GPU than the hardware. Meet some of the Intel Deep Link innovations that you can get access to:

Hyper Compute

Enables multi-engine content creation by harnessing the combined power of Intel CPUs and GPUs to unleash even greater performance. Hyper Compute uses all available compute engines or AI accelerators on the Intel CPU and GPU platform for tasks such as machine learning services during image processing.

Dynamic Power Share

Intelligently routes power between the laptop CPU and GPU enabling a performance boost for your task. A unified power envelope governed by a smart algorithm allocates power between your Intel Core processor and your Intel Arc graphics card—whichever needs it most.

Hyper Encode

Helps you spend less time waiting for your project to export. Hyper Encode is made possible by the multiple media engines found on the Intel Core processor and Intel Arc graphics card working in conjunction inside your laptop or desktop system.
