Intel has introduced a new graphics card out of nowhere. The manufacturer wants to primarily target gamers who play in Full HD.
The manufacturer Intel has been offering graphics cards in addition to processors for several months. Now, surprisingly, a new graphics card has been shown: the Intel Arc A580. What can the graphics card do? MeinMMO presents you with initial information and details about the new graphics card.
