Intel just teased a new Battlemage Arc GPU, asking gaming fans to 'stay tuned'
It's expected to be revealed at Computex 2025 alongside new Arc Pro and AI GPUs
It could be a great opportunity for Team Blue to catch up to its rivals, with a more powerful, higher-end GPU compared to the Arc B570 and B580
With Computex 2025 now upon us, it's nearly time for plenty of tech reveals from handheld gaming PCs, processors, and GPUs – and Intel has hinted at a few big reveals to challenge its rivals, Nvidia and AMD.
In a post on X, Intel announced that it will be revealing new Arc Pro and AI GPUs at Computex; most importantly, it's just hinted at a new Battlemage GPU, with 'stay tuned' replies to users who flooded the replies with requests for the GPU purported as the 'Arc B770' for gamers.
Multiple rumors have been widespread regarding Team Blue potentially releasing a higher-end GPU as an upgrade from its previous GPUs (reported by VideoCardz), after its Arc B570 and Arc B580 GPUs launched late last year.
One in particular seemingly revealed Intel's plans for a new Arc B580 with 24GB of VRAM, which is a significant upgrade from the current model's 12GB. It's also expected to come alongside other 24GB Pro GPUs for workstations.
Thanks to Intel's new teasers, these rumors now have more credibility, although it's not exactly clear if it will be unveiling both a new Arc B580 24GB GPU and an entirely new Arc B770, or just the latter alone. However, one clear thing is that gamers will be getting a new Battlemage GPU, and one that is more powerful than any of Team Blue's previous offerings – and a Computex 2025 reveal looks imminent.
It's no secret that despite the successes and impressive gaming performance from both the Intel Arc B580 and Arc B570, Team Blue still has some catching up to do with Nvidia and AMD. Fortunately, this rumored GPU sounds like it might be the start of that.
Both of its recent Battlemage GPUs aren't high-tier GPUs, but still manage to provide great performance results at 1080p and 1440p resolutions as budget options – but now, it sounds like Intel is making an effort in providing GPUs that are closer to middle or high tier (or at the very least more powerful GPUs than what is available).
While nothing is guaranteed, I'm hoping this is indeed the case because affordable GPUs need a greater focus for budget gamers; AMD's Radeon RX 9070 and 9060 series are a prime example of this (despite the inflation issues of partner cards).
I'm still keeping my expectations low, as I'm anticipating that there won't be any 'high-end' GPUs like the rumored Arc B580 24GB might suggest; at least, I don't see any of Intel's new GPUs matching or competing against the likes of an RTX 5070 Ti.
However, the rumors indicate that Intel is potentially cooking something that will make gamers take it more seriously when it comes to the GPU market – and I'm hoping it's a major surprise.
Intel's Arc B770 GPU could go head-to-head with Nvidia's RTX 5060 – and it's expected to be revealed at Computex
Intel's latest boasts about its integrated graphics makes me less excited for the Nintendo Switch 2 - and more hyped for the MSI Claw 8 AI+

These 2 Artificial Intelligence (AI) Stocks Are Undervalued Right Now
Stocks are back at an all-time-high, but some AI stocks are still a good deal. Micron Technology is growing rapidly, and yet its shares trade at a P/E of just 16. AMD has emerged as the closest challenger to Nvidia in the data center GPU market. 10 stocks we like better than Advanced Micro Devices › Less than three months after the stock market plunged on President Donald Trump's "Liberation Day" tariffs announcement, major indexes are back near all-time highs. Investors have shrugged off concerns around tariffs and a potential economic slowdown as businesses adjusted to the new trade regime and as economic data so far around unemployment and inflation has been stable, showing that tariffs have not yet had a significant impact on the economy. Despite the resurgence, which has led to stocks like Nvidia hitting all-time highs again, there are still deals to be found among artificial intelligence (AI) stocks. Keep reading to learn about two of them. Fresh off its latest earnings report, Micron Technology (NASDAQ: MU) just delivered another strong round of results in the fiscal third quarter, beating estimates on the top and bottom lines and offering better-than-expected guidance for the fourth quarter. There was one blemish in the report, which was that pricing declined slightly on a sequential basis, which led to the stock falling less than 1% on Thursday. However, Micron still looks well-positioned to capitalize on the AI boom. Its data center business is surging, more than doubling on a year-over-year basis, pacing overall revenue growth of 37%. It also reported nearly 50% revenue growth in high-bandwidth memory (HBM), and reached record DRAM revenue, which includes HBM. Micron's margins also improved. Its gross margin jumped from 26.9% to 37.7%, and operating margin increased from 10.6% to 23.3%. Adjusted earnings per share more than tripled from $0.62 to $1.91. In addition to its ramping financials, Micron finds itself in an advantageous position because it's the only U.S. manufacturer of advanced memory chips, meaning it's strategically important to the country at a time when the government is focused on reshoring chip production and ensuring adequate supply. Micron was awarded $6.2 billion from the CHIPS Act, and also agreed to invest $200 billion in new foundries in R&D in the U.S., though the timeline on that is unclear. Looking at valuation, Micron looks cheap. Based on its latest guidance, the stock trades at a forward P/E of less than 16, and analysts expect earnings per share to hit $12 in fiscal 2026, giving the stock a P/E of roughly 10 based on that forecast. Micron does face cyclical risk, but if the company can hit those numbers, the stock is a good bet to move higher. Another chip stock with significant upside potential is Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ: AMD). AMD might not look undervalued, according to its trailing price-to-earnings ratio of 39, but that's actually an attractive price for the company's growth potential and momentum. AMD stock is still down by more than a third from its peak last year, but its recent results show it's growing quickly in the key data center segment, and it has emerged as the only real challenger to Nvidia in the AI GPU market. Though it's a distant second there, that's proven to be a valuable position, and is likely to earn it support from customers, as having competition for Nvidia is to their benefit as well. In its first-quarter earnings report, revenue rose 36% to $7.4 billion, led by a 57% jump in revenue to $3.7 billion, which was driven by growth in its EPYC CPU and Instinct GPU chips. AMD's strength in both CPUs and GPUs, arguably give it a competitive advantage as well and help differentiate the company from competitors. AMD also impressed in the client segment, where revenue jumped 68% to $2.3 billion thanks to strong demand for its Zen 5 Ryzen processor. While that growth rate is likely to slow, AMD has been steadily grabbing market share from Intel, and that trend is likely to continue. The company is also making moves to beef up its AI capabilities. It acquired ZT Systems in the first quarter to improve its expertise in servers and rack-level solutions, which it said would help it address the data-center AI accelerator opportunity, which it said was expected to reach $500 billion by 2028. It's also acquired a number of AI start-ups, which should accelerate its advances in AI. Analysts are expecting rapid growth from the company, forecasting adjusted EPS of $5.71 in 2026. Based on that figure, the stock trades at a forward P/E of 25.2, making AMD looks like a good deal, considering its growth potential in AI and beyond.

Nvidia's market dominance leaves it with 'only one way to go'
Nvidia (NVDA) is dominating the artificial intelligence (AI) chip market, but its lead could shrink as rivals ramp up. Gil Luria, D.A. Davidson head of technology research, joins Market Domination to explain how players like Advanced Micro Devices (AMD), Broadcom (AVGO), and Huawei are positioned to chip away at Nvidia's market share. To watch more expert insights and analysis on the latest market action, check out more Market Domination here. You know Gil, I I know some colleagues of yours on the street. Big fans of AMD and they say you know what? Lisa Su and her team they're gonna they're gonna narrow that gap with Jensen Wong and his crew over invidia. I am curious broadly, Gil, how do you see the competitive landscape evolving for invidia? Yeah, so that's the other part of it is that Nvidia has almost the entire market right now. The number two, the distant number two is actually Google TPUs. Uh Broadcom uh which which broadcom supplies. So in that sense, they're also in the mix. But AMD, Intel, all those are are really minor players. Going forward, we expect the the the custom chips made by Broadcom Marvel and others to have a bigger share of the market. AMD to start growing from that very small base, but very importantly, tying to the conversation you started earlier, Huawei. The more restricted invidia selling into China, the better glide path there is for Huawei to accelerate growth and take bigger and bigger pieces of the market. So again, in video participating just with the shrinking share because they're starting with owning the almost the entire market, there's only one way to go from there.
