Steve from Hardware Unboxed, seen above giving the Intel ARC A750 a comforting hug, has taken the time to do a 40-game updated benchmark comparing the $200 ARC A750 to the $300 RTX 4060 and $279 RX 7600.
Intel’s ARC launch was not ideal, but these latest benchmarks show that with the newest drivers Intel’s GPU can provide a good option against both Nvidia and AMD. While the A750 is overall 19% slower than the RTX 4060 at 1080P in Hardware Unboxed’s aggregate of the the 40 games, there are several benchmarks such as Resident Evil 4 with ray tracing that the Intel bests its competition. This is while being $100 less expensive than the Nvidia part.
From a SFF perspective the Intel A750 presents is less appealing despite the price difference. The Intel A750 is a 225 watt part compared to the 115 watt RTX 4060, and requires both an 8-pin and 6-pin power connector, or a 2×8-pin depending on the card. The smallest A750 available on New Egg at the time of writing is the Sparkle ORC OC edition coming in at 222mm in length, and 2.2 slots in width. Comparatively, you can find the ITX sized 163mm long, 2-slot, Zotac RTX 4060 SOLO for $299. This is a far more appealing option for SFF builds where GPU size and thermals are a limiting factor.

The Radeon RX 7600, while not as efficient at the GeForce RTX 4060, still weighs in at 165 watts compared to the Intel 225 watts. The smallest card available on New Egg for the RX 7600 is the Power Color Fighter RX 7600 which measures at 212mm in length and 2-slots in width. It is $269 at the time of writing, and includes a copy of Starfield standard edition.
Intel is offering Assassins Creed Mirage and the Nightingale game bundle with their cards.
