With the new Intel Arc B580 and Arc B570, however, it's entirely possible that we might be able to see a new graphics card in the budget segment capable of tackling 1440p, the fastest-growing resolution for PC gaming, where their competitors at this price point cannot.

Intel just announced two new Battlemage graphics cards starting at just $229,m and they could help keep encourage competitive pricing from Nvidia and AMD.

Intel’s next — and possibly last — desktop graphics cards will begin arriving in just 10 days. Right on cue, the company has announced the budget $249 Arc B580 and $219 Arc B570, shipping December 13th and January 16th, respectively, as the “best-in-class performance per dollar” options in the GPU market.
