Intel’s upcoming Arc B770 discrete GPU leaks out on GitHub, launch appears imminent — Reportedly featuring the BMG-G31 GPU, 16GB+ VRAM, 32 Xe2 cores, and 300W TDP

Rumors of a successor to Intel’s Arc A770 discrete GPU have been floating around for more than a year at this point, with a new launch window finally seeming on the horizon. Following various leaks, the Arc B770, has just appeared on an undisclosed Intel GitHub repository, with code specifically mentioning “b770.” While this isn’t an official confirmation, it’s easy to connect the dots and see the B770 is closer than ever.

Arc B770 will be part of Intel’s second-gen discrete GPU architecture known as “Battlemage,” using Xe2 cores, which was supposed to be a lot more ambitious at one point, but the plans seem to have dwindled. Right now, Intel has moved on to Xe3 cores in its Panther Lake mobile chips, though that’s still classified as Battlemage (and not Celestial).
